AU Australia property term

Fixed-Rate Home Loan

Australia-wide

Plain-English definition

A home loan whose interest rate is locked for an agreed period before it reverts or is renegotiated.

Why this matters to a foreign buyer

Fixed repayments can aid budgeting, but extra repayments and refinancing may be restricted or attract break costs. Check the rate and rules after the fixed period ends.
