What is Rate Lock and how do I apply?
With the Rate Lock feature, you can lock in the current fixed interest rate. This way, for a fee, you are protected from the possibility of rising interest rates. If the current rate falls below your 'locked in’ rate on your settlement date, you'll be given the lower rate. Rate Lock will hold the current fixed rate for up to 90 days after you have locked in the rate for a fee of 0.15% of the loan amount (minimum fee amount $500, maximum charge is capped at $1,000 for loans up to $2M, and 0.15% of the loan amount for loan above $2M).
To apply for the Rate Lock feature, you can speak directly with your Home Finance Manager or Broker.

1Rate Lock: BankSA will apply the fixed rate available at the loan settlement date or the date the fixed rate term commences, unless you lock a fixed rate in on your loan using our Rate Lock feature. The fixed rate lock-in fee is 0.15% of your loan amount or $500, whichever is higher, capped at $1000 for loans up to $2M. For loans above $2M, the fixed rate lock-in fee is 0.15% of your loan amount. At the end of your fixed rate term, the interest rate will convert to our standard variable interest rate, unless a new fixed rate term’s selected and then the fixed rate is determined on the day the fixed term ends.
