• Can I pay extra off my loan?

  If you choose a fixed rate home or investment loan you can make additional repayments, but if you make extra repayments of more than $10,000 in a  year during a fixed rate period then a Break Cost fee will be payable. Redrawing the additional repayments is not permitted.

• If I select to lock in a rate for my new fixed rate loan application, how long is the rate guaranteed for?

  This rate will be held for the 90 day ‘Approved Period’ from the date that the completed rate lock form is received by People’s Choice Credit Union. This 90 day rate guarantee does not extend beyond the expiration date of the conditional loan approval.*

  No, an offset account cannot be linked to our Fixed Rate Loan. Please consider either our Standard Variable or Home Loan Package Variable Loan if you would like an offset account feature. Alternatively, a split loan facility can provide you with the best of both loan types.
