Offset mortgages

Get more from your money

Why not take advantage of your savings? An offset mortgage could be a great way of using what’s in your savings and current accounts to reduce the outstanding mortgage balance you're charged interest on.

By offsetting, you could reduce your mortgage term or your monthly mortgage repayments and still keep instant access to your savings. You won’t pay tax on your savings, as they won’t be earning interest.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage

  • Use the offset benefit to reduce your monthly repayments or the term of your mortgage. Please note that we default to reduced term, which you can change at a later date
