The guarantor can provide residential property to support their guarantee. Alternatively, the guarantor may instead choose to provide IMB with a Term Deposit for an amount equal to the limit of the guarantee.
IMB has a range of calculators to help you manage most money problems, including the Home Loan Repayment Calculator. Not only can you get a fast understanding of what your repayments will be with any of our home loans, but you can calculate what difference changing the frequency of your repayments or making extra repayments will do to the total interest you pay and how much time you may save.
Yes, you can - and you will likely save money on interest, and shorten the duration of the loan term. How? By changing the frequency of your home loan repayments from monthly to fortnightly (or weekly), you actually repay an extra month per year. It works like this:
- 12 monthly repayments is the equivalent of 24 fortnightly repayments.
- There are 26 fortnightly repayments over a 52-week year - an extra two fortnightly repayments a year.
The savings over the life of the loan can be significant. For example, for a $500,000 loan at 5.00%p.a. over 30 years.
- Monthly repayments are $2685, and the interest paid over 30 years is $466,280.
- Fortnightly repayments are $1343, and the interest over 30 years is $380,460. This represents an interest saving of $85,820! And it shaves 4 years and 8 months off the loan term.
Calculate how much you could save by switching from monthly to fortnightly repayments.

Purpose, repayment type and LVR
Interest rates for each type of home loan are based on criteria that includes purpose (owner occupier or investment), repayment type (principal and interest (P&I) or interest only) and loan to value ratio (LVR). Different interest rates and establishment fees may apply if the purpose, repayment type or LVR is different to the purpose, repayment type or LVR for the interest rate shown.

2. Advance repayment costs may apply if you repay more than 12 months in advance on a fixed rate loan.
3. The balance in your 100% offset account reduces the balance used to calculate interest on your home loan. 100% offset is available using the IMB Everyday and IMB Everyday Unlimited Accounts.
4. Variable rate loans have a discount off the standard variable rate. The discount margin will be the discount available at the time a loan contract is issued and may be different to the current discount in the interest rates shown. They are for new applications only and they are not available for refinance of existing IMB loans. Also refer to the general information above.
5. Fixed interest rates are indicative and they may vary on settlement. Different interest rates apply to other fixed rate terms.
