Frequently asked questions

When does a home loan balance transfer make sense?

It works best when the rate gap is meaningful, the outstanding amount is large and many years of tenure remain. The calculator weighs the interest you save against the switching costs and shows the month you break even.

What costs are involved in a balance transfer?

Typically the new lender's processing fee plus 18% GST, legal and valuation charges, and stamp duty or registration on the new mortgage, which varies by state. Floating-rate home loans taken by individuals generally carry no foreclosure charge from the existing lender.

Should I ask my current lender to reduce my rate first?

Yes. Many lenders offer a rate conversion or repricing for a fee, which avoids fresh paperwork. The “Stay, reprice or switch” tab compares all three options.

Is it better to lower my EMI or keep the EMI and finish sooner?

Keeping the same EMI usually saves more interest because the loan closes sooner. Lowering the EMI frees up monthly cash flow. You can switch between the two in the inputs.

Can I take a top-up loan when I transfer?

Many lenders offer a top-up with a balance transfer, subject to your income, repayment record and the property value. It is new borrowing, so the calculator shows it separately from the savings.
