Q: How does the Smart Mortgage works ?

A:

    Smart Mortgage uses the balances in your designated savings account to reduce the overall level of borrowing for the purpose of interest calculation, thereby reducing the amount of interest the customer actually pays. Smart Mortgage does this by combining your savings account with your mortgage repayment account.

    Smart Mortgage allows you to payoff your mortgage more rapidly. The regular repayment behaviour remains unchanged. With reduced interest payments, this means more of the regular repayment each month goes to paying down the principal. This arrangement enables Smart Mortgagers to pay off their home loan more quickly than a conventional mortgage arrangement.
