Westpac launches 85pc no-LMI offer

3 minute read
The Adviser

Westpac has offered to pay the mortgage insurance premium for many new owner-occupier home loan applications.

The new offer applies to new owner-occupier home loan applications with LVRs of up to 85 per cent received between 6 July and 31 August 2015, and settled by 30 September 2015.

Tony MacRae, Westpac’s general manager of broker distribution, said the new promotions will provide real savings for owner-occupiers, as well as an opportunity to encourage more Australians into the housing market.

“The third-party distribution network is an integral part of Westpac’s growth strategy, and according to the latest MFAA quarterly figures, well over 50 per cent of mortgage consumers are using a mortgage broker,” he said.

“Westpac wants to remain the number one bank for overall broker service and value, so our purpose here is quite simple – we are helping more Australians own their homes sooner with the help of their mortgage broker, and that’s a key priority and focus for Westpac.”

The new offer comes after St. George Bank, the Bank of Melbourne and BankSA – which are owned by the Westpac Group – all announced cuts to their variable and fixed rates last week.

    <p>Given most settlements around Australia take 6 weeks from approval (a bit quicker up here in QLD), and another week to get approved, and If the loan MUST settle by the 30th Sept, I would suggest this offer is not really available until the 30th August. If we haven't lodged by the 12th August your customer might miss out, hence the offer is REALLY only available for about 6 weeks. Why so short a time period?</p>
