How do fixed rate home loans with 100% offset accounts work?

Fixed rate mortgages let you lock in a rate for a set period, usually 1 to 5 years. Some lenders also offer fixed rate terms for as long as 10 years.

A fixed rate loan with a 100% offset account lets you save money on the interest you pay. The balance of your offset account will offset your principal loan amount, and you don't pay interest on that portion of the loan. Any money you would normally pay as interest is paid towards your home loan principal instead – so you'll actually end up owning your home outright sooner.

Offset accounts are not offered on all fixed rate loans.

Donny’s offset account

Let’s compare 2 scenarios with Donny, our savvy borrower.

In the first example, Donny has a home loan with a rate of 5.0%. His loan size is $500,000 and his repayments are approximately $2,685 a month. He’ll pay a total of $966,279 over the 30 years that he has the loan, $466,279 of which is interest.

If Donny has an offset account and keeps $20,000 in it over the course of his loan, he would pay off his loan 1 year and 10 months earlier and would save $60,011 in interest. That means he'll own his home more than a year earlier, saving a full year of mortgage repayments – all because of a simple offset feature!

His repayments would still be the same, but more of each repayment would go towards the principal (the original loan amount).

How to compare these types of mortgages

  • Fixed term. Think about how long you want to be locked into the rate. Terms can range from 1 to 10 years. Choose a term you think you’ll be comfortable with, and remember that break fees are payable if you exit your loan before the term ends. If you plan to sell your property in the future, ensure that your fixed term accommodates this.
  • Fees. These types of loans may come with upfront and ongoing fees that could negate the savings you may make in the long run, so remember to take these into account.
  • Additional features. As well as an offset account, the home loan may offer you other features, such as a redraw facility, the ability to make additional repayments and discounts. Check to see if you stand to make any further savings.

Pros and cons of 100% offset accounts

Pros

  • With a fixed loan, your repayments will remain the same during the fixed interest rate period. If variable rates are increased, you won't pay more.
  • The balance you have in the offset account will be taken off your principal loan amount, actively helping to reduce the amount of interest you pay.
  • You can access and spend the money in your offset account at any time.
he

Cons

  • You’re unable to refinance during the fixed rate period without paying break costs, which can be expensive.
  • Offset accounts can come with account-keeping fees, so it's important to check whether the fees will be more than your potential savings.
  • You don't earn interest on an offset account like you would in a savings account. However, the interest you save on your home loan is usually at a much higher rate.
