Things to know about this calculator:
*If you're a first home buyer, and you’re intending on living in the property, you'll usually need at least a 20% deposit. In limited circumstances you may be able to borrow with a 10% deposit but this is subject to loan-to-value ratio (LVR) restrictions.
Repayment amount assumptions:
- **The interest rate selected remains the same for the loan term. Realistically, this interest rate is likely to change over the loan term.
- You make all your repayments in full and on time.
- You pay the minimum required, don’t make any additional lump sum payments or borrow more under the loan.
- Your repayments are calculated on a ‘principal + interest basis’ for the loan term.
The calculator also applies:
