Auswide Bank home loans
Auswide Bank (formerly Wide Bay Australia) was created in 1966 as Queensland-based building society, later becoming a bank. It was started with the aim of challenging the big four banks by providing low-deposit home loans.
In recent years Auswide Bank has gone on to offer an extensive range of personal finance and banking products to help everyday Australians achieve their goals and build their wealth.
As the name would suggest, Auswide Bank is widely accessible with branches and ATMs across the country. Before its relaunch, Auswide Bank was named by the People’s Choice Awards as “Best Building Society” in 2014.

^Words such as "top", "best", "cheapest" or "lowest" are not a recommendation or rating of products. This page compares a range of products from selected providers and not all products or providers are included in the comparison. There is no such thing as a 'one- size-fits-all' financial product. The best loan, credit card, superannuation account or bank account for you might not be the best choice for someone else. Before selecting any financial product you should read the fine print carefully, including the product disclosure statement, target market determination fact sheet or terms and conditions document and obtain professional financial advice on whether a product is right for you and your finances.
