Expert review

You can apply for this home loan package if you wish to buy a home to live in. It's also available for borrowers refinancing principal and interest investment loans, although different rates apply to investment purchases. You can choose a fixed term of between one and five years, after which you can fix for another term or let the rate revert to a discounted variable rate.

This loan is a package loan, meaning that while you get a competitive interest rate and discounted fees, you will pay an annual package fee. The package, however, offers you access to other Bankwest products with certain fees waived also.

What are the features and benefits of the Bankwest Complete Home Loan Package - Fixed Rate?

  • Loan amount, term, and LVR. This fixed rate home loan package comes with a minimum borrowing limit of $200,000, and the maximum amount depends on factors like your financial standing, the valuation of any given home, and your ability to make repayments.

  • Offset account. With this loan you can choose to add a 40% or partial offset transaction account, which partially reduces the amount of interest charged on your home loan. You can add up to nine separate offset accounts. This offset account doesn't attract a monthly offset fee under the package.
