6 MONTHS FIXED
A 6 month fixed rate home loan lets you lock in the rate offered for that period. Your loan repayments will then remain the same for 6 months from when this is processed by the bank.
When the 6 month fix rate period ends, you can choose the floating rate offered or another fix rate term. A mortgage broker in Invercargill, Gore, or further up the country can walk you through the available rate options.
WHY CHOOSE A 6 MONTH FIXED RATE FOR YOUR HOME LOAN
• You are expecting to pay off this loan in the near future and don't want to incur penalty fees. An example of this would be if you were completing renovations to the house and were planning on placing it on the market after 6 months. A 6-month fixed home loan might be lower than the current floating home loan rate in NZ.
• You are waiting to see what the home loan market will do in respect to fixed rates. You might be anticipating a rate reduction in the next six months.
• You have more than one loan, and another you have is coming off its fixed rate in 6 months. You may wish to renegotiate or restructure your loans as one.
