You may be paying too much interest on your home loan!

Offset Account Pros:

  • liquidity / control

  • no approvals required

  • no minimum amount you have to redraw or fee

  • no tax implication, you loan is still deductible

Offset Account Cons:

  • poorer rates

  • redraw not considered an asset

  • sometimes offset accounts come with an annual charge

  • sometimes you can’t offset 100% but with redraw you can
