PRODUCT REVIEW - Revolving Credit

What is a Revolving Credit Facility?

It is a transactional account which is essentially a large overdraft facility and operates in the same way. All or part of the mortgage can be set up as a revolving credit. The pre-approved credit limit of this facility is loaded onto a cheque account and you can choose to repay as much or as little as you like each month - as long as the balance of the facility remained within its limit at all times.

Some facilities have reducing credit limits which reduce each month along the lines of a table mortgage.

If you want maximum flexibility with your home loan then this facility offers that. It works best for people whose income fluctuates or they are on large incomes or receive regular bonuses - all enabling extra payments into the facility; thus reducing interest!

The most important things to remember with a Revolving Credit facility are to:
  • set in up correctly at the start
  • understand fully how it works
  • review its progress regularly

.. so that you are maximizing the benefits this type of facility provides!
