ACCC urges clients to review their home loans regularly

Author: Sal Cinque, CEO, TAG Finance & Loans

The ACCC’s Home Loan Price Inquiry found that consumers who do not regularly review their home loans could be paying too much.  The interim report also stated that a lack of price transparency makes it difficult for consumers to compare home loans.  

The report goes on to state that consumers with existing home loans should conduct a review on a regular basis and that consumers may need to switch to a different home loan product or switch to another lender in order to secure a better deal.  

The ACCC encourages consumers to shop around when looking for a home loan, as even a small reduction in interest rates can potentially save thousands of dollars over the life of the loan.  While not all lenders offer discounts and not all consumers will be eligible for a discount, consumers willing to review their loans can often obtain a lower rate. 

In line with the ACCC’s findings and recommendations, TAG Finance and Loans have launched a home loan comparison website where you can compare 100s of loans to potentially save $1,000s and when you’re ready to proceed, we’ll manage the entire application process for you…..welcome to Compare N Save.
