Hi there,
Is anyone else purposely diversifying their lending across more than one lender ?
If so, what have been the reasons for this and pros/cons?
I think I have maxed out my rate discounts from two lenders at present and unlikely to get any further discounts even if I move all lending across to one of them so I started thinking that it might be more sensible to leave my lending diversified so that I can hedge against any favourable/unfavourable rate changes.
Obviously, I have to pay an extra package fee but this is less than $400 a year and deductible. Two Internet banking accounts is also annoying esp. when you want to transfer large funds in real time. These are my main cons but I guess all manageable.
Does anyone else have any experiences they can share ?
