Want the option to package your home loan The bank offers a basic 'essentials' home loan and a Premium Package mortgage range, with the latter including an offset account and a discounted interest rate at the cost of a $299 annual fee.
Plan to buy or refinance an eco-friendly property Gateway's Green Home Loan offers a discount of at least 0.15% off its variable rate for homes deemed energy conscious.
Need access to the5% Deposit Scheme The bank participates in the Australian Government 5% Deposit Scheme, helping eligible first home buyers purchase with as little as 5%, or single parents with 2%, without paying lenders mortgage insurance (LMI).
Prefer digital banking but still like human help You can manage repayments via the Gateway App and online banking, while phone support is also available during business hours.
Are interested in a line of credit home loan Gateway is one of few lenders still offering line of credit home loans, allowing property owners to draw down on their home equity and repay the funds as they see fit, only paying interest on those drawn at any given time.
Plan to buy a vacant block now and might not build within a year Gateway's land loan lets you secure residential land without needing to build straightaway, as is often a requirement of construction loans.

We strive to cover a broad range of products, providers, and services; however, we do not cover the entire market. Products in our comparison tables are sorted based on various factors, including product features, interest rates, fees, popularity, and commercial arrangements.
Some products will be marked as promoted, featured or sponsored and may appear prominently in the tables regardless of their attributes.
Additionally, certain products may present forms designed to refer you to associated companies (e.g. our mortgage broker partner) who may be able to assist you with products from the brand you selected. We may receive a fee for this referral.
You can customise your search using our sorting and filtering tools to prioritise what matters most to you, although we do not compare all features and some results associated with commercial arrangements may still appear.
For home loans, the base criteria include a $500,000 loan amount over 30 years. These rates are only examples and may not include all fees and charges.
*The Comparison rate is based on a $150,000 loan over 25 years. Warning: this comparison rate is true only for this example and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate.
Monthly repayment figures are estimates that exclude fees. These estimates are based on the advertised rates for the specified term and loan amount. Actual repayments will depend on your circumstances and interest rate changes.
Monthly repayments, once the base criteria are altered by the user, will be based on the selected products’ advertised rates and determined by the loan amount, repayment type, loan term and LVR as input by the user/you.
