Expert review
The Qantas Money home loan is not only tempting because it offers 100,000 Qantas Points every year, for the life of the loan but it also offers a competitive interest rate. It is important though to make sure that you are considering whether all of the features of the home loan are worthwhile for you. Luckily, the Qantas Money home loan offers features like an optional offset account: although you do need to look out for the $10 monthly fee that comes with. Aside from that, there are no other ongoing fees to worry about, but the application fee is quite high at $495.

For those willing to apply, make sure you request the offset account to be offered in the contract. I sign up with Qantas Money, and when I request to set up an offset account, I ‘ve been told that it’s a contract variation to add it and it will be at cost of $150 to have it done, apart of course from those $10 monthly fee. On the advertisement they say it will be offered, but it’s not clear how.

Can they just lift the variable rate as soon as you sign up? Is there an early termination fee?
Who do U speak to to negotiate some of the ridiculous upfront costs?

Hi Luke,
Unfortunately a variable rate can change at any time, especially at the moment. But variable rate loans don’t have early termination fees.
You can try to negotiate the fees when talking to the lender directly, before you apply.

If I refinance multiple properties would I get 100k of points per application/property?

Hi Elvin,
I had a look at all the terms and conditions on the Qantas Money website and I couldn’t see any wording specifying a limit of one home loan per customer. But I did notice they restrict the points to one person in the case of a joint application (i.e. if you’re a couple with the mortgage you can only get the points once).
My suggestion: ask first before you apply. They may not allow it, but they might. It never hurts to ask.
All the best,
Richard
