Frequently Asked Questions
Household Loan Interest Calculation
Accessing the savings in your home using a Household Loan will reduce the amount of equity you have in your home over time. As with all loans, interest is charged on the funds you receive.
Whether you receive regular drawdowns or a lump sum payment, interest is charged on the total amount drawn from your loan. Interest is calculated daily but only compounded (added to the loan balance) monthly.
Most loans require monthly minimum payments to repay the loan balance and associated interest charges; a Household Loan defers loan and interest repayment to the loan's maturity date.
What is Compound Interest?
While no regular repayments are required, interest and any fees added to the loan balance will compound over time.
Compound interest means that you pay interest not only on the amount you have borrowed but also on the interest (and any fees) charged. Or, in other words, you pay interest on the interest for the duration of your loan.
Over time, the amount you owe will increase, and the longer you have the loan, the more the interest compounds and the larger the amount you have to repay.
Household Capital also offers an 'interest only' facility, where you can make regular payments so that at the end of the term, only the principal amount you borrow is repayable.
