Frequently asked questions
Who is eligible for the cashback offer?
You may be eligible for the cashback if you’re refinancing a home or investment loan from another financial institution, or if you’re a first home buyer purchasing or building your first home. See the offer terms and conditions for full details.
Am I entitled to a cashback if I’m an existing customer?
Yes, existing customers can also qualify for our cashback offer. To be eligible, you’ll need to either refinance a home or investment loan from another financial institution, or be an eligible first home buyer purchasing or building your first home — and meet all applicable terms and conditions.
Who is eligible for a First Home Buyer (FHB) cashback offers?
The First Home Buyer (FHB) cashback offer is designed for eligible first home buyers who:
- Have never owned or co-owned a residential property in Australia (excluding vacant land)
- Do not intend to rent out any part of the property after settlement
- Meet all applicable terms and conditions of the offer.
When will I get paid?
You’ll receive the $2,000 cashback into your Summerland Everyday Account within 90 days of your settlement date, provided all eligibility criteria are met.
What is home loan refinancing?
Home loan refinancing involves replacing your existing loan with a new one. The new loan pays off the old one, and you then repay the new loan gradually over time. You have the option to refinance with your current lender or switch to a different one.
Refinancing can be beneficial if your circumstances have changed, such as if you’ve changed jobs or started a family. Additionally, it might be worth considering if market conditions have shifted, such as fluctuations in interest rates. In such cases, your current home loan may no longer be the most suitable option, and refinancing could help you secure a loan that better aligns with your current needs.
