If you already have a home loan and are curious as to whether you can get a better deal, you should be talking to your mortgage broker.  They can source and compare various other home loan products to see if there is another loan that would suit you better, taking into account every part of the loan such as fees, charges and added features, not just the interest rate.  It’s not worth changing your home loan for another that has a lower rate if it ends up costing you more in the long run due to fees or ‘hidden’ costs.  Your mortgage broker is experienced in the finer details of home loans and therefore is the best person to be scrutinising your mortgage.
