Review by our senior home loans writer Richard Whitten
If you have a variable home loan can you pay it out in full or do you have to fix the loan
Hi Karen,
Yes, you can pay out a variable home loan early.
Do I make an appointment to come into a branch to apply for a home loan
Hi Pidge,
thanks for the question.
You can apply for a home loan in a number of ways. By clicking the ‘Go to Site’ button on this page, you’ll be taken to the Bankwest site where you can apply online, arrange a call back, or make an appointment to apply in person.
I hope this helps,
Marc.
Did Bankwest revise interest rates for home loan after the RBA reduction of 0.25%? Cant find any info.
Hi Alam,
thanks for the question.
Bankwest recently announced a rate reduction of 0.17%, which is effective for existing customers on the Tuesday 19 May.

when paying off a mortgage in full, what charges are there
Hi Brown,
Thanks for your question.
If you repay your mortgage early, you will be liable for break fees and discharge costs.
The fees and charges will depend on your loan and how early you paid it off.
You may find this guide to home loan exit fees as your reference to know more about the fees if you want to pay off your loan ahead of time. Remember to revisit the relevant product disclosure statement and terms and conditions of your loan.
Cheers,
Shirley
