Hi All
After meeting with about half-a-dozen MB's in my recent search for the best home loan for me, I met with a new MB who suggested the Heritage Pro Pack would suit me best, and based on the numbers he told me, it kills all other competitors. However upon checking online after he left, one detail seems different - he said the variable interest rate was 4.82% whereas online it states 4.97%. Although, even at the online rate, it's still number 1 in my books. I just wanted to know whether any SSers out there have dealt with this bank or have this loan?
details include the following:
- 4.82% variable interest rate (4.97% as per the website however...)
- $250/yr annual fee
- 2 free credit cards
- 100% offset account
- unrestricted free redraw
- $300 discharge fee
- $800 early repayment fee
- $124.20 "mortgage registration fee" (standard/set cost)
- $811.70 "transfer registration" fee (proportional to loan amount)

any opinions would be greatly appreciated! Just seems a bit odd that NONE of the first 6 MBs I dealt with mentioned Heritage at all! Do they have good reason not to? The last broker seemed the most professional of the lot though, so I'm considering getting preapproval soon... just need to clear up the interest rate.
Thanks!
