The home equity home loan is a revolving credit facility that gives you access to a pre-approved credit limit. You will only pay interest on the amount you use for the number of days you use it at our competitive Home Equity Rate (facility may be subject to annual review and is repayable on demand).
Customer Example:
If you have a revolving credit approved limit of $100,000.00 at an interest rate of 6.30% pa
i.) No interest will be charged if this limit is not used or drawn down
ii.) If you choose to use or draw down any amount (in this example $20,000.00 for 25 days) interest will be charged based on the number of days the facility is in use
e.g. $20,000.00 x 6.30% x 25/365 = $86.30 in interest
iii.) If you were to repay only $12,000.00 of the $20,000 drawn down above, then interest will continue to be charged (on a daily basis) based on the outstanding amount of $8,000.00 until it is fully repaid. In this example assume the balance outstanding is not repaid for 31 days.
eg: $8,000.00 x 6.30% x 31/365 = $42.81
Please note that accrued interest will be debited to your Home Equity account on a monthly basis.
Make lump sum repayments whenever you have extra cash flow and you can use your revolving pre-approved credit to pay for those repairs or renovations rather than incurring high interest costs if you were to use your credit card.
