Government fees

Government fees are not bank fees. They may include stamp duty on the mortgage, stamp duty on the transfer of land and other Titles Office charges. The Bank collects these charges on behalf of the government and passes on the full amount. You should also allow for your own costs, such as solicitor and conveyancing costs.

Economic cost

Economic costs may be payable when you prepay the whole of the loan amount which is under a fixed interest rate.

They may also be payable when you prepay less than the whole of the loan amount during a fixed rate period. However, for prepayments less than the whole loan amount NAB will waive economic costs on the first $20,000 prepayment per fixed rate period, except for prepayments of Personal Residential Investment Fixed Rate Interest Only Loans.

Where you prepay less than the whole amount of the loan under a National Tailored Home Loan Package contract produced prior to the 22nd March 2004 (i.e. under a National Tailored Home Loan Package contract which specifies a disclosure date prior to the 22nd of March 2004), NAB will waive the economic costs (in accordance with your contract).

The economic cost is the Bank's reasonable estimate of its loss (if any) from the early termination of the loan or a prepayment. It is calculated by the Bank as the difference between the Bank's cost of funds at the start of the relevant fixed rate period and its cost of funds at the date of termination or prepayment over the remainder of that period. This is then discounted back to the net present value at the rate equivalent to the Bank's cost of funds at that date.

Before terminating the loan or making a prepayment, you should ask the Bank to indicate what the economic cost (if any) might be.

Prepayment fees

NAB has abolished the prepayment fee from home loans.

This was previously payable when a customer would prepay the whole amount which is under a fixed interest rate.

It was also payable when less than the whole loan amount was prepayed. However, for prepayments less than the whole loan amount NAB would waive the prepayment fee on the first $20,000 prepayment per fixed rate period, except for prepayments of Personal Residential Investment Fixed Rate Interest Only Loans.

Default Fee

NAB has abolished the default fee from home loans.

This fee was previously payable from the first and each subsequent Collection Letter issued when your loan repayments were past due by 30 days or more.

Full details of fees plus relevant terms and conditions are available on request from your local branch, or by phoning 13 13 12 between the hours of 8:00am - 9:00pm (Melbourne time, GMT +10), 7 days a week. Other fees and charges are payable.
