Important information

For those that love the detail

This advice is general and has not taken into account your objectives, financial situation or needs. Consider whether this advice is right for you.

Canstar may earn a fee from its Online Partners for referrals from its website tables, and from sponsorship or promotion of certain products. Fees payable by product providers for referrals and sponsorship or promotion may vary between providers, website position, and revenue model. Sponsorship/promotion fees may be higher than referral fees. If a product is sponsored or promoted, it’s an ad and it is clearly marked as such. An ad might appear in different places on our website, such as in comparison tables and articles. Ads may be displayed in a fixed position in a table, regardless of the product's rating, price or other attributes. The location of an ad doesn’t indicate any ranking or rating by Canstar. Payment of fees for ads does not influence our Star Ratings. See How We Get Paid to find out more.

Home loan Star Ratings are updated monthly. The results don’t include every provider in the market and we may not compare all features relevant to you. Current rates and fees are displayed and may be different to what was rated. You can find a description of the initial sort order below the table. You can use the sort buttons at the top of each column to re-order the display. Learn more about our Home Loans Star Rating Methodology. The rating shown is only one factor to take into account when considering products. The table defaults to display only home loans available to somebody borrowing 80% of the total loan amount but you can use the filters to change this. Similar products might have different features and fees depending on the amount you borrow. Contact the lender for details.

The products and Star Ratings in the table might not match your exact inputs in the selector. Sometimes the methodology uses profiles with categories or bands (e.g. income, loan amount or monthly spend), but sometimes a single methodology, without any categories or bands, is applied.  The results will show the products that most closely match your selection, based on our profiles. If you are unsure about any terms used in the comparison table please refer to the glossary.

What is a Target Market Determination?

A Target Market Determination (‘TMD’) is a document that explains which people particular financial products may be suitable for (the target market) and sets out any conditions around how financial products can be distributed to consumers.

Why do product issuers provide Target Market Determinations?

From 5 October 2021, TMDs are compulsory for most financial products.

Issuers and distributors of financial products must take reasonable steps that are likely to result in financial products reaching consumers in the target market defined by the product issuer.

We recommend that you consider the TMD before making a purchase decision. Contact the product issuer directly for a copy of the TMD.

Any advice on this page is general and has not taken into account your objectives, financial situation or needs. Consider whether this general financial advice is right for your personal circumstances. Canstar provides information about credit products. We’re not suggesting or recommending a particular credit product for you. If you decide to apply for a loan, you will deal directly with the provider, not with Canstar. Consider the Target Market Determination (TMD) before making a purchase decision. Contact the product issuer directly for a copy of the TMD. It’s important you check rates and product information directly with the provider. For more information, read our Detailed Disclosure. ^Read the Comparison Rate Warning.

Before you elect to terminate or modify existing lending arrangements, we recommend you consider (i) your personal circumstances, and (ii) any associated fees, exit costs and application costs that may be applicable as well as the impact these changes could have on you. We suggest you consider seeking independent advice from a qualified adviser.

“Interest-only loan” generally means a loan where you will only pay interest during the interest-only term. That means you won’t be making payments which reduce debt during the interest-only term.

On some Home Loan products, you can choose to be referred to a mortgage broker who has been certified by Canstar according to our certification process. Mortgage brokers may not be able to offer loans from every provider. The loans included in the table are loans that Canstar Certified Mortgage Brokers can discuss with you, if you choose to do so. There may be more suitable loans for your personal circumstances.

If a broker successfully completes the Canstar certification process, they may pay Canstar a fee to use the official Canstar Certified Mortgage Broker badge. Canstar may earn a fee from the Canstar Certified Mortgage Broker, or the broker group they are affiliated with, if you settle a Home Loan via a Canstar Certified Mortgage Broker after being referred to the broker by Canstar.  Fees payable may vary depending on the home loan product and product provider.

Not all mortgage brokers available in the market have undertaken the certification process.  Canstar has invited a limited number of brokers to undertake the process, and only those brokers who have successfully completed the certification process are entitled to use the logo and wording “Canstar Certified Mortgage Broker”. Being certified as a Canstar Certified Mortgage Broker is not a representation that the holder’s mortgage broking services are superior to all other brokers who do not hold the certification.

Canstar Certified Mortgage Brokers are independent contractors, operate under their own Australian Credit Licence, or as Credit Representatives under an Australian Credit Licence, and are not Canstar’s agent or representative. They are not Home Loan product providers, but they can make recommendations to you about Home Loan products that may suit your needs. The broker may require you to enter into an agreement with them in relation to the services they can provide.  Canstar will have no knowledge of or input into the advice and product recommendations you receive from a Canstar Certified Mortgage Broker.

If you choose to be referred to a Canstar Certified Mortgage Broker, you will be taken to have accepted Canstar’s Terms of Use.

Your use of the Canstar Group’s Mortgage Broker Referral tool does not mean that you will be eligible to be approved for any particular home loan.
