Rate certainty starts here.
100% Australian data. Always free to use.
Methodology: RatePilot uses tracked lender data and consistent comparison rules across every home loan page. Read the methodology.
Important: The comparison rate is based on a loan of $150,000 over a term of 25 years. WARNING: This comparison rate is true only for the examples given and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate. General Advice Only.
Fixed-rate home loans deserve their own landing page because the borrower intent is different. When someone is shopping fixed, they are usually looking for repayment certainty first and flexibility second. Mixing those products straight back into the full variable-heavy market adds clutter and slows down the comparison process. This page keeps the focus on loans that explicitly lock the rate for a set period so the shortlist is aligned with the reason you searched in the first place.
That does not mean the lowest fixed rate automatically wins. You still need to compare the fixed term available, the comparison rate where provided, and the feature trade-offs around offsets, extra repayments, and break costs. A dedicated fixed-rate landing page helps surface the current leaders quickly, but the real value is in letting you judge whether a slightly higher rate comes with enough flexibility or term certainty to justify the difference.
This filtered slice currently covers 390 home loan products from 19 lenders and 1,615+ rate variations. The best live rate in this group starts from 5.49% p.a.
Method note: Landing pages reuse the same live dataset as the main home loan page. The difference is the server-side filter and the editorial framing, not a separate manual ranking.

Common Questions
Fixed loans suit borrowers who value payment certainty and want to reduce exposure to future rate rises during the chosen fixed period. They are especially relevant when budgeting stability matters more than flexibility.
The main trade-off is flexibility. Fixed products often limit extra repayments, split-loan features, or the ability to refinance without break costs during the fixed window.
Borrowers looking specifically for fixed pricing should not have to manually strip out the variable market first. This page keeps the comparison set focused on fixed-rate options and lets the list behave like a true fixed-rate market view.
