Mr & Mrs Eden are government workers and have been in their respective jobs in excess of 5 years. They are looking to reduce their monthly loan repayment amount but also want certainty of their repayments, their current bank is not really offering a competitive fixed or variable rate so they’ve started shopping around.
They have a $435,000 loan with Bank A with a variable rate of 4.58% and their property is worth $570,000.
Our Solution
Given their strong and stable employment type, we were able to offer them the following solution:
- ING Orange Advantage
- 2.09% 2 year fixed (Comparison Rate 3.77%)
- The out of pocket costs to refinance were $1,950.00
- Indicative interest savings of $20,167 over 2 years
By providing the clients with this option, they were able to save $18,217 in interest over their 2 year fixed period (i.e. total indicative interest saved – out of pocket refinance costs).
