Home loan rates in Australia
91 banks publish home loan rates. We read each bank's own published product data every day and rank every one of them for the loan you choose below: owner-occupied or investment, principal and interest or interest only, the loan-to-value ratio, the amount, and a variable rate or one fixed for 1 to 5 years. Each bank appears once, at its lowest published rate that covers that loan. The comparison rate is the bank's own figure. Australian law requires it to be calculated on a $150,000 secured loan over 25 years, including most fees, so it understates the effect of fees on a larger loan. Offset and redraw are features of the product, as the bank publishes them, and may not apply while a rate is fixed.
A few terms that data leaves out, such as a fee, a new-customer offer, a membership limit or a revert rate, are read from the bank's own documents instead: 2073 terms from 83 banks' own terms and pages, each quoted and re-read daily.

Lowest rate at each LVR
For owner-occupied, principal and interest loans of $600,000. LVR is the loan divided by the property's value; an LVR between bands uses the LVR band above it, so a $680,000 loan on an $800,000 home (85%) reads the 90% row. A loan amount between the sizes uses the nearest size, $300,000, $600,000 or $1,000,000. Investment or interest-only loans, and loans of $300,000 or $1,000,000, are each one file: /au/finance/home-loans/v1/top/{purpose}/{repayment}/{lvr}/{loan}/{kind}.json.

The 40 lowest of the 77 banks are listed here; the page script loads the rest, and the full ranking is published as JSON.
WARNING: This comparison rate is true only for the examples given and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate. Comparison rates are calculated on a $150,000 secured loan over 25 years.
Rates are per annum as published by the bank; your own rate depends on the bank's assessment of you and the property. A rate published for a band of LVRs or loan amounts counts for every reference LVR and amount in the band. One entry per bank per bucket: its lowest ranked rate whose purpose, repayment type and rate type match and whose LVR and loan amount bands cover the reference values. Rates for restricted products (construction, bridging, first home buyer, staff, profession, low-doc and similar), introductory rates and interest paid in advance are not ranked. A rate whose LVR the bank does not state is ranked at 80% LVR and below only. A product record the bank has not updated for more than 60 days before the fetch, or since before the Reserve Bank's latest cash rate change, is ranked with record_stale true and a condition saying so (unless its rate was confirmed on the bank's own website within that window and since that change), as it may predate a rate change; a record we have checked against the bank's website and found out of date is not ranked, one whose LVR band or comparison rate was wrong is corrected, and record_correction says what the website showed. Broker-only rates are left out of these rankings, and so are rates from banks or products that lend only to a named occupation or employer group (restricted membership: teachers, police, health workers and the like, as the bank's own feed states; each such rate carries eligibility with who can borrow and the bank's words). Each slice file also carries three more rankings of the same bucket: entries_with_broker (broker-only rates in, restricted membership still out), entries_with_restricted (restricted membership in, broker-only still out) and entries_all (both in). best.json holds the default ranking only, each entry as {rank, row, comparison_rate_at_loan_pct} with row an index into its rows list, which holds the rest of the entry once. Package rates are ranked; their package fee is in annual_fee (ongoing fees per year, periodic fees converted to a yearly amount) and the comparison rate. upfront_fees and exit_fees are the fixed fees listed for setting up and closing the loan. Ranking is by rate, then the bank's comparison rate. comparison_rate_at_loan_pct is our own comparison rate at the bucket's loan amount over 25 years, from rate, upfront_fees, annual_fee, exit_fees and, for a fixed rate, revert_rate after fixed_months (revert_rate_basis: linked where the feed ties it to the product, inferred where it is our inference, the bank's variable rate that reproduces the bank's own comparison rate); it is published only where comparison_check.ok (ours at $150,000 within 0.05 points of the bank's comparison_rate_pct) and does not change the ranking. Click a bank for every rate it publishes. The "source" link opens our snapshot of the bank's product record.
About this data
Under the Consumer Data Right every Australian data holder must publish its product reference data openly, without authentication and in the same fields, which is why the banks here can be compared like for like. We read the register of data holders, fetch each brand's residential mortgage products and lending rates, sort each rate by loan purpose, repayment type, fixed term and LVR band, and keep the bank's wording of any conditions. On top of that product data, we read terms it leaves out from the banks' own documents: 2073 terms from 83 banks' own terms and pages, each quoted and re-read daily. Where a bank's own page contradicts its product record, we follow the page until the bank republishes the record, and the row's conditions say so. The same records are published as JSON, each with its source URL and the bank's last-updated time:
best.json: the banks ranked for each purpose, repayment type, LVR, loan amount and rate type./v1/compare/home-loans?loan=…&price=…: the banks ranked live at an exact loan and LVR, with our comparison rate at that loan, the monthly repayment, who may borrow and why each other bank is left out./au/finance/home-loans/v1/best/<purpose>/<repayment>/<lvr>/<loan>/<kind>.json: one of those rankings on its own, such asbest/owner_occupied/principal_and_interest/60/600000/variable.jsonfor the table above.rates.json: every normalised rate row, with LVR bands, loan ranges, fees and features.index.json: the dataset index, listing the per-bank files (brands/<brand_slug>.json) and the verbatim snapshots of the bank product records behind every row.
