In a significant development for prospective homeowners, Horizon Bank has been recognised for offering the lowest advertised variable home loan rate in Australia!
This competitive variable rate of 5.24%p.a. is specifically tailored for first-home buyers who can provide a 30% deposit.
Financial comparison platforms have highlighted Horizon Bank's offering. Canstar reported that Horizon Bank has taken the title of the lowest variable rate lender in the market with this 5.24%p.a rate. Similarly, Mortgage Professional Australia noted Horizon Bank's emergence with the lowest advertised variable rate currently available.
In the current lending environment, many banks have adjusted their rates following the Reserve Bank of Australia's recent cash rate cut. While major banks like CBA, Westpac, NAB, and ANZ have reduced their rates, Horizon Bank's offering remains notably lower. For instance, CBA, Westpac, and ANZ have rates starting from 5.59%, but these are often limited to digital-only or refinance products.
Horizon Bank's current variable home loan rate positions it as a leader in the Australian mortgage market, especially for first-home buyers. With industry recognition and a clear commitment to customer value, Horizon Bank offers a compelling option for those entering the property market.
