How can you pay off your loan sooner?

Small, consistent changes can make a meaningful difference over the life of a loan. This may include making extra repayments, increasing repayment frequency, using an offset account effectively or reviewing whether your current loan structure still suits your goals. The right approach depends on your cash flow, loan type and personal circumstances.

Offset accounts

An offset account is a transaction account linked to your home loan. Money held in the offset account may reduce the loan balance used to calculate interest, which can help lower interest charges while still giving you access to your funds when needed.

Redraw facility

A redraw facility may allow you to access extra repayments you have made into your home loan, depending on lender rules and product conditions. This can provide flexibility while still helping reduce your loan balance and potential interest costs over time.
