Offset, Redraw, Fixed or Variable: Is Your Mortgage Set Up to Build Wealth?

A well-structured mortgage can help you pay less interest, keep more flexibility and put you in a stronger position for whatever you want to do next.  That could mean upgrading your home, buying an investment property, freeing up more money to invest or putting your emergency fund to work. But with offset accounts, redraw facilities, fixed rates, variable rates and split loans all on the table, working out the best setup is rarely as simple as choosing the lowest rate.  In this episode, Nick is joined by mortgage broker Aydin Gulmen to explain how to structure your home loan so you can reduce the interest you pay, keep your savings accessible and avoid limiting your future borrowing or investment plans.  They compare offset and redraw facilities, fixed and variable rates, and the factors that determine how much a lender may allow you to borrow. You will also learn how your credit cards, deposit and choice of loan features can affect your borrowing power, repayments and overall cost.  Inside this episode:  The offset-versus-redraw decision that could affect your future investing and property plans  <li class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW59439027 BCX0" role="listitem" aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="1
