As one of Australia’s largest banks and one of the biggest of the “Big 4”, Commonwealth Bank (CBA) doesn't always offer the lowest rates on the market, but is able to offer competitive home loan offers, including package deals with other financial products.
CBA has a variety of home loans available at a range of different interest rates. As a general rule, owner-occupiers get lower interest rates than investors; principal-and-interest borrowers get lower interest rates than interest-only borrowers; and borrowers with lower LVRs get lower interest rates than borrowers with higher LVRs.
Commonwealth Bank also puts different prices on its variable interest rates and its fixed interest rates. CBA’s fixed rate mortgages are available for either one, two, three, four, five or seven year terms. As a general rule, the longer you want to fix, the higher the interest rate.
