Our rates

Upsizer bridging loans

Upsize your home now, sell later. When you're upsizing with Bridgit, you start on our Bridge Rate. Once your existing property sells and a repayment is made, there will be a remaining loan balance—this is your residual loan amount. At that point, your rate will automatically decrease to the Stay Rate1 for the rest of the term, so you can enjoy no monthly repayments for longer.

You’ll need to refinance this residual loan balance to a traditional home loan before the end of your term.

Our fees

Set-up fee
From 0.79%
The set-up fee is determined by several factors including LVR (loan to value ratio), loan size, loan type, and property location.

This fee is calculated as a percentage of your loan and is included in your total loan amount.
Interest
Interest in advance
We calculate your interest in advance based on the bridge rate and include it in the total loan amount. 

This means you don’t have to worry about making monthly repayments during your loan term. When you repay your loan, interest will be recalculated based on the actual term and the applicable rates.
Loan deposit
From $900
The deposit is paid to accept your conditional approval offer and allows you to move into the final stages of loan approval. On settlement we apply a credit of the same amount.
Valuations
From $220 per valuation, varies based on property value
Australian Property Institute certified valuers conduct independent valuations on the properties listed in the application.

Valuation fees are paid at the conditional offer stage to support unconditional approval.
Loan discharge
$450
The discharge fee covers the administrative steps to complete a hassle-free and smooth transition from your loan.

Government and third-party fees

It’s important to be aware of government and third-party fees that may apply throughout the process.

Disclaimer

Eligibility and approval is subject to standard credit assessment and not all amounts, term lengths or rates will be available to all applicants. Fees, terms and conditions apply.

1 The Stay Rate will only apply if a repayment is made from the sale of Outgoing Properties (or another repayment method approved by us, at our discretion) and the repayment reduces the Amount You Owe to an amount that is equal to or less than your Residual Loan Balance.

^Comparison rate is calculated on a $150,000 secured loan over a 25-year term. For Upsizer loans, a Bridge Rate applies for the first 12 months, followed by a Stay Rate thereafter. For Downsizer loans, only the Bridge Rate applies. WARNING: This comparison rate is true only for the example provided and may not include all fees and charges. Different loan amounts, terms, or fee structures will result in different comparison rates. For interest-only periods, your loan balance does not reduce, meaning you may pay more interest over the life of the loan. Set-up fee from 0.79% and government charges apply.
