NAB variable home loan rates
NAB offers two separate variable rate home loans – a basic, low cost option and an option with more features and options but higher rates.
Base Variable Home Loan
NAB’s Base Variable Home Loan is, as you might have guessed, it’s more basic product. It’s got a low rate and low fees, but is also basic when it comes to features. That said you can make extra repayments with no fees and redraw funds as needed (min of $500 per redraw).
NAB’s Base Variable Home Loan is pretty light in fees with:
- $0 upfront establishment fee
- $0 monthly loan service fee
NAB Tailored Home Loan
NAB’s Tailored Home Loan offers more features than the Base Variable product but with higher rates, particularly on higher LVR. But for some borrowers, having access to multiple offset accounts will be worth the higher rate.
The main fees for NAB’s Tailored Home Loan include:
- $0 upfront establishment fee
- $8 monthly loan service fee
NAB fixed home loan rates
NAB offers a single fixed rate home loan option - its Tailored Fixed Rate Loan with rates depending on your LVR and term duration. Borrowers can make extra repayments up to $20,000 within the fixed rate term without paying any fees, with an option to split the loan between fixed and variable.

How competitive are NAB’s home loan rates?
NAB’s home loan rates are most competitive across its fixed rate products, with all of its terms from one to five years offering value relative to the other major banks for the same terms.
Nabs variable home loan rates are less attractive currently, partly due to the rising interest rate environment. It may also be that NAB’s strategy is to attract customers on relatively low fixed rates, with the aim of holding onto those borrowers even after the fixed term ends.
But if you look at the market as a whole, NAB’s home loan rates are not market leading and borrowers should be able to find lower rates by shopping around.

What are NAB’s lowest home loan rates?
NAB’s lowest home loan rate is currently available on its one-year fixed rate for owner occupiers making principal and interest repayments, with the rate on its two-year fixed product just slightly above it.
Its lowest variable rate is currently on Base Variable Home Loan, again for owner occupiers making principal and interest repayments.
