Renovating your home

Would you like to renovate your home?

As your family grows you may want to renovate to create more space. Or you may decide renovating is a better option for you than moving house at this stage in your life.

What you need to know

Renovating can be expensive but there are a number of things you do to help you fund the changes you want to make to your home:

• If you’ve been making additional repayments on your home loan above your required repayment amount, you may be able to withdraw that money and use it to fund your renovations
• You may be able to find a more competitive home loan. By reducing your interest rates you can save more money towards your renovations

Getting started

• Get a good understanding of how much you will need to carry out your renovations and make sure you include a buffer for cost overruns
