Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions:
Finding the right home loan depends on your situation. Here’s how to start:
- check loan features like offset accounts and redraw facilities.
- speak with a mortgage broker or one of our Suncorp Bank lending specialists.
Want to crunch the numbers? Try our loan repayment calculator to see what your repayments might look like.
When you’re applying for a first home loan (or any home loan), your Loan to Value Ratio represents the amount of your loan compared to the value of the property.
Here’s an example: Say you want to buy a house for $500,000 and you’ve saved $50,000 as a deposit. Your LVR would be 90 percent since your loan will be 90 percent of the value of the property.
LVR is one of the ways lenders assess home buyer loan applications. By saving more for your deposit, you can lower your LVR and increase the strength of your application.
If you’re borrowing more than 80 percent of the value of a property from a bank, it’s likely you’ll need Lenders Mortgage Insurance. LMI protects your lender in case you default on your loan.
LMI is a once-only cost. It’s not something you need to pay every year or month. Many borrowers add the LMI cost to their mortgage and repay it over time. To learn more, read our LMI factsheet (PDF).
Stamp duty is a state government tax that is payable on the transfer of a property. The exact amount will vary based on the state in which you’re purchasing the property.
As an incentive for first home buyers, some Australian states and territories offer stamp duty concessions to those purchasing their first property, if the price is under a certain amount. Check your state government’s website for information about any grants and concessions available for first home buyers.
There may be more than one type of stamp duty payable when you buy your home. There's the duty, as described above, based on the property price. This is generally the highest government tax associated with the purchase. There may also be stamp duty on the mortgage. The rates vary depending on your state and the value of the property.
Many home lenders offer customers the option of linking a home loan to a savings or transaction account, with the balance of this account reducing, or ‘offsetting’, the interest payable on the loan.
This feature is available on Suncorp Bank’s Standard Variable Rate home loan, with our Everyday Options Account operating in offset mode. Here’s how it works: your home loan interest is calculated on the outstanding balance of your linked Standard Variable home loan, less the balance of your main Everyday Options Account and linked sub-account balance/s.
The more money you have in offset mode, the less interest you’ll be charged on your home loan. As a trade off, you won’t be paid interest on the balance of your offset account.
A comparison rate is a rate that indicates the true cost of a loan. It’s called a comparison rate because it can make it easier to compare loans from different lenders.
The comparison rate incorporates certain fees and charges that are applicable for the chosen product. It’s calculated on a loan amount of $150,000 and a term of 25 years.
Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included in the comparison rate but may influence the cost of the loan.
For more information about the comparison rate and the comparison rate warning, please refer to the 'Things you should know' section of this page.
When comparing home loans, you’ll generally see fixed and variable interest rate options. When you’re deciding what’s right for you, you don’t have to choose just one. You can set up a portion of your borrowings as 'fixed' and a portion as 'variable'. This can give you the benefits of both products and help reduce risks of changing interest rates. Learn more about splitting your home loan.
Home loan repayments are influenced by several factors, including the loan’s:
- current balance
- term (e.g. 20 or 30 years)
- interest rate (fixed or variable)
- repayment type (principal & interest or interest-only).
- linked offset account/sub-account balances (if eligible).
If you have a variable interest rate, your repayment amount may change over time as interest rates fluctuate.
The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) sets the cash rate, which influences interest rates offered by banks. When the cash rate changes:
- variable home loan rates may go up or down
- fixed home loan rates remain unchanged for the term of the fixed period, however, the financial institution may change their current rates for new borrowers.
Keeping track of the RBA’s decisions can help you decide when to refinance or lock in a fixed rate.
Your mortgage repayment consists of two parts:
- principal: the amount borrowed
- interest: the cost of borrowing.
At Suncorp Bank, home loan interest is calculated daily and charged on your monthly repayment due date. We multiply the remaining balance on your loan by your interest rate and divide it by 365 to determine daily interest. You can use the calculator above to get an understanding of how much interest you could pay on your loan over time.
Since interest rates can change, the calculator provides an estimate based on current rates but does not include all potential fees and charges. If a variable rate loan is selected, repayments may fluctuate over time.
Interest rates fluctuate based on economic conditions, inflation and monetary policy set by the RBA. Keeping an eye on RBA announcements and financial forecasts can help you make informed decisions about your loan.
The frequency of your repayments - weekly, fortnightly or monthly - can impact how much interest you pay over the life of your loan. Since interest is calculated daily on the unpaid balance, making more frequent repayments can help reduce the total interest you pay.
Use our home loan repayment calculator to see how repayment frequency might affect interest payable.
If you’ve set up a recurring payment to a home loan from your Suncorp Bank account, you can update it at any time. Find out more about changing your repayments.
Principal & interest (P&I): You repay both the loan amount and interest, which reduces your total loan balance over time.
Interest-only repayments requires bank approval. If you are approved, you only pay interest for a set period, resulting in lower repayments initially. However, your repayments will increase later when you start paying off the principal and interest.
Interest-only loans may also have borrowing restrictions or additional conditions, so it’s important to consider your long-term financial goals.

What is pre-approval?
Pre-approval (sometimes referred to as conditional approval) will give you a good idea of how much you may be able to borrow from the bank. If a lender pre-approves you for a loan, they will do so for a specific amount, so you can house hunt properties you know you can afford. It is obligation-free if you're successful, and you can apply more than once.
