The lender has introduced tiered variable rates for its 'Own Home Loan', dropping borrowers' interest rates as they lower their loan to value ratio (LVR).

The three tiers of variable rates for owner-occupiers making principal and interest (P&I) repayments are:

  • 2.74% p.a. (3.02% p.a. comparison rate) for an LVR less than 80%
  • 2.64% p.a. (2.92% p.a. comparison rate) for an LVR less than 70% 
  • 2.59% p.a. (2.87% p.a. comparison rate) for an LVR less than 60%

Important Information and Comparison Rate Warning

Base criteria of: a $400,000 loan amount, variable, fixed, principal and interest (P&I) home loans with an LVR (loan-to-value) ratio of at least 80%. However, the ‘Compare Home Loans’ table allows for calculations to be made on variables as selected and input by the user. Some products will be marked as promoted, featured or sponsored and may appear prominently in the tables regardless of their attributes. All products will list the LVR with the product and rate which are clearly published on the product provider’s website. Monthly repayments, once the base criteria are altered by the user, will be based on the selected products’ advertised rates and determined by the loan amount, repayment type, loan term and LVR as input by the user/you. *The Comparison rate is based on a $150,000 loan over 25 years. Warning: this comparison rate is true only for this example and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate. Rates correct as of . View disclaimer.

Investors making P&I repayments can also take advantage of the tiered system, with rates of: 

  • 3.09% p.a. (3.36% p.a. comparison rate) for an LVR less than 80%
  • 2.99% p.a. (3.27% p.a. comparison rate) for an LVR less than 70% 
  • 2.89% p.a. (3.17% p.a. comparison rate) for an LVR less than 60%

The new rates are effective from 20 August 2020 and apply to all variable rate customers, including existing Own Home Loan customers. 

86 400's standard variable rate for owner-occupiers is 4.10% p.a. (4.36% p.a. comparison rate), and all home loans are only available through a mortgage broker. 

Melissa Christy, Lending Product Lead at 86 400, said the neobank was thrilled to reward customers for paying down their loan. 

"We built 86 400 to help Australians take control of their money," Ms Christy said.

"By reducing the variable loan rates for customers with more equity in their property, we are helping our customers do more with their money. With rates at an all-time low, it's a great time to refinance."

86 400 is also offering a $2,000 cashback reward when you refinance before the end of the month and boasts an approval time of hours, rather than days. 

The neobank celebrated its first anniversary as a bank in July, launching its savings and transaction accounts in September of last year and its all digital mortgage business in November.

Since then, the lender has funded over $40 million in home loans and has its sights set on $2 billion in home loans by the end of 2021. 

It's the second lender to announce a tiered home loan system, with non-bank Athena announcing it's 'Athena Accelerates' offering last week.
