About Mortgage Simplifier

Key Features

While it does not have the convenient that comes with an offset account, but $Mortgage Simplifier comes with a redraw facility. A redraw facility works similar to an offset account. If you put the same amount into home loan as extra repayments, your interest bill will reduce by the same amount, but still have access those extra funds if you need them later.

Interest only loans have traditionally been tailored to investors so they can reduce their mortgage repayments and maximise their tax benefits and overall return on investment (ROI). However, getting home loan with interest only (IO) has its place and some lenders are willing to consider your application if you can provide valid reasons.

LVR is an acronym for Loan-To-Value Ratio. The LVR is the amount you are borrowing against the property value being used as security, represented as a percentage.
