Home loan rates for new loans are set based on the initial LVR and won’t change during the life of the loan as the LVR changes.
Fixed rate home loan: BankSA will apply the fixed rate that is available at the loan settlement date or the date the fixed rate period commences. At the end of the fixed rate period the interest rate will convert to the applicable variable home loan interest rate.
