Assumptions

  • Principal & interest repayments with a fixed interest rate of 6.0% for the entire loan term.
  • The offset account balance grows by a constant $2,000 per month. In practice, offset balances fluctuate with spending and income.
  • Monthly repayment stays constant at $3,597 (based on the no-offset scenario). With offset, more of each repayment goes to principal.
  • This does not account for offset account fees, rate changes, or redraw facility differences.

This is a simplified estimate. Your actual savings will vary based on spending patterns, income timing, and rate changes. Consult your lender or mortgage broker for personalised advice.
