5.93% variable at SCCU
For a $500,000 owner-occupier principal-and-interest loan at 80% LVR, priced at the 80% band, the lowest published variable rate is 5.93% on SCCU's BROKER HOME LOAN (comparison 6.28%). Across the 104 lenders publishing this rate, the median is 6.38%: at the lowest rate the repayment is $2,975 a month, $146 less than at the median. Rates as each lender published them under the Consumer Data Right on 7 November 2026; the rate you're offered depends on the lender's assessment.

How it works

The rate scanner lists the lowest home loan rates lenders publish for your loan type and LVR. Banks and non-bank lenders must publish every home loan they offer under the Consumer Data Right, with its rates by loan purpose, repayment type and LVR. This site reads all of them every night, and the scanner shows the 30 lenders with the lowest variable rate for your situation, each with its comparison rate, 2-year fixed rate, features and monthly repayment. Pick the features you need, such as an offset account or no annual fee, and it shows each lender's cheapest product that has them. The rates are what each lender publishes; the rate you're offered depends on the lender's assessment of your application.

  1. 1Enter the loan amount and your LVR (the loan as a percentage of the property's value).
  2. 2Choose owner-occupier or investor, and principal-and-interest or interest-only repayments.
  3. 3Tick any features you need: the scanner then shows each lender's cheapest product that has them.
  4. 4Compare the variable, comparison and 2-year fixed rates, and open a product for its full rates and fees.

Worked examples

Owner-occupier at 85% LVR who needs an offset

Sam is borrowing $600,000 at 85% LVR, principal and interest, and wants an offset account.

Loan amount
$600,000
LVR
85%
Loan type
Owner Occupier P&I

The scanner prices the loan at the 85% band and, with Offset Account ticked, shows each lender's cheapest product with an offset. The monthly repayment column shows what each rate means at $600,000 over 30 years.

Investor weighing fixed against variable

Chen has a $420,000 investment loan at 70% LVR, principal and interest.

Loan amount
$420,000
LVR

Loan type
Investor P&I

Investor rates are listed separately from owner-occupier rates. Each lender's 2-year fixed rate sits beside its variable rate, so Chen can see what fixing would add or save each month for the first two years.

Questions people ask

Where do the rates come from?
From each lender's Consumer Data Right feed. Australian banks and non-bank lenders must publish every product they offer, with its rates and fees, and this site reads all of them every night. The result shows the date the rates were read.
Why are rates different for different LVRs?
Lenders publish lower rates for lower LVRs because the loan is a smaller share of the property's value. Breaks at 60%, 70% and 80% are common, and above 80% most lenders also charge lenders mortgage insurance.
What's the difference between the advertised and comparison rates?
The advertised rate is the interest rate. The comparison rate adds most fees and charges, worked out on a $150,000 loan over 25 years, so lenders must show it beside the advertised rate. It's a guide: your own fees and loan size change the true cost.

The terms, in plain English

Comparison Rate
The interest rate plus most fees and charges, expressed as one annual rate on a $150,000 loan over 25 years. Lenders must show it beside the advertised rate.
LVR (Loan-to-Value Ratio)
The loan as a percentage of the property's value. Lenders publish their rates by LVR band.
P&I (Principal & Interest)
Repayments that cover the interest and pay down the loan, so the balance falls over time.
IO (Interest Only)
Repayments that cover only the interest for a set period, so the balance doesn't fall. Lenders price interest-only loans separately.
