HSBC head of retail banking and wealth management, John Barclay the housing market is on a markedly positive trend and “we want to ensure HSBC Premier is front of mind for the new owners of those homes.”
He says HSBC is offering these rates after the Reserve Bank kept the OCR on hold last week, but he warns “rates at these levels may not be as viable in the future.”
“It is up to current or new home owners to take advantage of these rates and the certainty that comes with fixing your home loan.”
The rates are for HSBC Premier customers. To qualify a customer needs to have either a minimum combined home loan of $500,000 or $100,000 in savings and investments.
