What is a redraw facility?

A redraw facility gives access to any extra repayments you may have made on certain types of loans. Commonly, these are home loans and personal loans, with account-holders able to withdraw some (or all of) the money they have paid off the loan, over and above the lender’s required minimum repayments. Typically, with loans that have this feature, the interest on your loan is calculated according to the total balance of your loan (including the extra repayments). So, paying extra repayments into a loan with a redraw facility can mean that your repayments may be reduced, as the total interest is reduced, but that you will also have access to that extra cash.

For example, if you decide to pay an extra $250 a month into your loan, you’ll have an extra $3000 of additional payments accumulated by the end of the year. With a redraw facility on your loan, it’s up to you whether you want to leave this money to reduce your loan balance and interest charges or if you would like to apply to redraw it and spend it on other expenses.

However, it’s important to note that there may be restrictions placed on when and how much you can redraw, depending on your lender’s rules. Be sure to read all important documentation when considering loans, such as the Target Market Determination (TMD), Key Facts Sheet (KFS) and any other terms and conditions. They can usually be found on the lender’s website, or you can ask for a copy from the lender.

Frequently Asked Questions about using a redraw facility

Depending on your circumstances, there may be benefits to using a redraw facility:

  • Flexibility. Being able to redraw extra repayments on your home loan may be helpful, particularly in an emergency.
  • Interest savings. Because the interest rates on home loans are generally higher than those of savings accounts, you could save more money in interest by paying extra into your home loan – with the ability to redraw it again if needed – than you would earn if you kept the same funds in a savings account.
  • Lower long-term costs. Depending on your situation and how you use the redraw facility, you may pay less interest on your mortgage long-term.

Having a good idea of how you might use a redraw facility is important. Depending on your circumstances, there may be drawbacks to using a redraw facility:

  • Fees. Some lenders may charge a fee for each redraw you seek to make. This is generally more common with withdrawals made in a branch, as opposed to online.
  • Withdrawal restrictions. Limits might apply to how many redraws you can perform each year, or to how much money you can redraw at once. However, making it more difficult to redraw funds on a regular basis may not be such a bad thing if it deters you from redrawing too often, as this could potentially help you save money in the long run.
  • Ease of use. Despite withdrawal restrictions, some homeowners might still find it too convenient having access to use a redraw facility. By withdrawing extra payments against your loan, you may reduce your long-term savings achieved.
  • Redraw terms could change. If your bank changes the terms and conditions on your loan, you could lose access to your funds, or be forced to withdraw them and find an alternative at short notice. A home loan offset account may be another option to consider if you would like to save on home loan interest but avoid the potential for your savings to be absorbed into the loan.

Before applying for a loan with a redraw facility, it could be worth checking with your lender to confirm the details of any restrictions, fees or other important terms and conditions that may apply to it.

The process of redrawing funds differs between lenders, so it’s a good idea to find out how this happens before you sign up. For some lenders, you may have to fill out forms detailing how much you’d like to take out and when. For other lenders, it may be possible to use a banking app to redraw funds.

Either way, redrawing funds from your loan could change the amount of interest you need to pay, which could lead to an increase in repayments and extend the term, and therefore cost over time, of the loan.

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. Payment of fees for ads does not influence our Star Ratings or Awards.

Home loan Star Ratings are updated daily. During periods of significant market fluctuations, such as adjustments to the reserve bank's cash rate, star rating updates will be paused for variable home loans until the market has stabilised. However, advertised interest rates of products will continue to be updated as advised by lenders. 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 up to 80% of the property value, 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.

Canstar is not providing a recommendation for your individual circumstances. We cannot and do not recommend that any particular product is suitable for you. 

We provide links to our Online Partners. These are brands that may pay Canstar a fee for referring you. Our tables default to display only our Online Partners’ products initially, you can adjust the Online Partner Filter to see all of the products available for comparison on Canstar’s website. We provide these links so that you can click through to the product provider’s website to get more information. The provision of these links does not constitute a recommendation by Canstar.

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.
