  1. All calculations are estimates only; they are not guarantees, pre-qualifications or pre-approvals for borrowing. All results are based solely upon the data entered into the calculator.
  2. It is assumed that data entered into the calculator, including interest rates, do not change for the lifetime of the loan - unless specified.
  3. The Present Value provided by this calculator is displayed as the amount labelled 'Loan amount'.
  4. At the end of the interest-only period, the rate may change. For this calculation, rate switches to the current rate.
  5. The current rate is today’s average big 4 owner occupier advertised discounted variable rate (LVR 80%), unless you have inserted your own rate.
  6. Interest is calculated by compounding on the same frequency as the repayment selected, i.e. weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
  • Months are assumed to be of equal length. However, given some months are longer than others, interest charged may vary depending upon the month.
  • One year is assumed to contain exactly 52 weeks or 26 fortnights. Thus each year has 364 days.
  • The calculator uses the unrounded repayment to derive the home loan summary line graph and repayment schedule. However, institutions may round repayments to the nearest cent.
  • Your final mortgage repayments or borrowing amount will depend on your lender’s eligibility criteria among other factors.
  • Calculator does not include the cost of fees or other extra charges.
  • Calculator does not account for changes to interest rates over time.
  • This calculator is for information purposes only. Any advice is general and has not taken into account your personal circumstances. Consider whether you need financial advice from a qualified adviser.
  • After the interest only term ends, your repayments will change based on the current* interest rate. This rate is subject to change. Read our full disclaimer.

Greater Bank home loans review

As a customer-owned bank, Greater Bank is able to reinvest its profits to benefit its customers, including offering competitive interest rates. Fixed, variable and split interest rate options are available for owner occupiers and investors, paying principal and interest or interest only. Refinancers may also be able to benefit from a fast refinance option.

Greater Bank has mortgage options available for self-employed borrowers. Borrowers that are short on their deposit (such as some first home buyers) may still be able to get a home loan from Greater Bank if a family member can guarantee the loan with their own property as security.  Construction and land loans are also available, as are reverse mortgages and lines of credit.

While Greater Bank home loans are available with no ongoing fees, an annual package fee may apply if you choose to bundle your loan with other financial products from Greater Bank.

Greater Bank offers home loans with additional repayments and unlimited free redraws. Repayment holiday options are also available. Selected home loans also offer the option of multiple offset accounts.
