Hey friends 👋 Having navigated first home buyer grants, LMI, yada yada, and a plethora of calculators from the Big 4 and realising that frankly, they all suck (many just flat wrong), I ended up creating a monster spreadsheet to help give me the breakdowns and account for everything I needed.
Eventually it evolved into this. A free, online mortgage calculator that does the heavy lifting and gives you the numbers you need. This calculator is designed specifically for how Aussie home loans actually work - with proper offset account calculations, realistic property growth projections, government grants and more.
Whether you're a first home buyer trying to understand LVR, an investor comparing scenarios, or looking to refinance, this tool provides the comprehensive analysis I hope can support you in your property journey.
You know I originally thought pumping as much as I can into offset payments would reduce my monthly minimum payment? What a donut. Guess they don't call it a minimum payment for nothing.
