  Choose the right facility for you

  When applying for a facility on your home loan product, an affordability assessment will be done to find out exactly how much additional finance you can access.

  Flexi Bond

  You get access to surplus home loan funds 24 hours a day, 7 days a week if you have a transactional account with FNB. Alternatively, access to funds is available during business hours. Surplus funds include any prepayments, as well as a percentage of capital you have already repaid on your home loan up to a pre-determined limit.

  Future Use

  This enables you to register a bond greater than the home loan amount you require, creating an extra amount that may be accessed at a later stage.

  Pre-Paid Finance

  Withdraw any additional money that you have paid into your home loan account.

  Repayment Choice

  Increase your monthly instalment and save on interest. This also allows for you to pay off your home in a shorter period of time.

  Re-Advance

  This gives you access to the funds that make up the difference between your original registered home loan and the outstanding balance.

  Further Bond

  Obtain funds by registering an additional amount over and above your original registered bond amount.

  Interest Rate Options

  Fixed Rate

  For the duration of your contract period (12, 18 or 24 months), the interest rate on your home loan remains fixed and is unaffected by any rise or fall of general interest rates.

  Variable Rate

  This is the standard interest rate option. The interest rate varies in line with current interest rate movements.

  BA Linked Rate

  The interest rate is directly linked to the publicly quoted three-month SAFEX BA rate (Bankers Acceptance Rate) and offers a highly competitive means of financing your home loan.

  Home Loan Insurance

  Home Owner's Cover

  This insures your house and any structural improvements to the property. This cover is compulsory with any home loan.
