Alpha isn’t just about making home ownership happen. It’s also about helping your new commitment fit in as comfortably as possible with other aspects of your life. Whether you’re a first home buyer or looking to refinance, building a new home or renovating an old one, or are an investor or self-employed, our Alpha home loans are designed to shift with your changing needs and circumstances. And they’re provided by Bendigo and Adelaide Bank.
Alpha is a great home loan as it can help reduce your interest by depositing money into your 100% offset account. You can also make additional repayments whenever you can without any extra costs being charged. Choose from fixed rate, variable rate or a mix of both.
How does it work?
For example, you can put your salary into your offset account and pay for expenses on a personal (non-Alpha), credit card. Using funds in your offset facility to pay the full balance owing on the card on or before the due payment date, you are effectively using the card’s interest free period to keep funds in the offset account for longer, maximising your interest rate reductions. This method does require sufficient funds to be held in the offset facility.
The Alpha offset facility is a fully transactional account that helps you save on interest. Every cent you have in this account helps reduce the interest on your home loan. It’s the ideal account to have your salary paid into to make sure all your money is working to pay off your loan sooner.
*An offset facility is available with any Alpha Home Loan (including fixed rate loans). The offset facility is a sub-account linked to your nominated loan account. The offset facility forms part of your loan account. The offset facility balance may not exceed the loan account balance.
AFG Home Loans Alpha can debit the offset facility with any amounts lent to you or due under your mortgage. Please note that having an offset facility does not automatically give you a right to redraw from that offset facility. If you have a redraw facility on your home loan and have made payments into your offset facility above your minimum repayment, you may withdraw those extra payments if:
Limitations on withdrawals may apply in certain circumstances.
It’s never been easier to buy or build a new home before selling your existing property.
