This calculator compares two different loan options side-by-side, showing monthly repayments, total costs, and total interest paid.
Includes upfront fees in the comparison for a complete picture of the true cost.
Don't just compare interest rates—consider setup fees, ongoing fees, and the total cost over the loan life to find the best deal.

Look beyond just the interest rate. Compare the comparison rate (which includes fees), ongoing fees, offset account features, redraw facilities, and flexibility for extra repayments. The cheapest rate isn't always the best overall value.
A comparison rate is a standardised rate that includes both the interest rate and most fees and charges related to a loan. It helps you compare the true cost of different home loans on a like-for-like basis, as required by Australian law.
Neither is universally better. Fixed rates offer repayment certainty but less flexibility. Variable rates move with the market but allow features like offset accounts and unlimited extra repayments. Many borrowers split their loan between both.
