Home loan rates in Perth start from 5.94% p.a. today (as at August 2026), the lowest variable owner-occupier rate across 85+ Australian lenders. Rates are set nationally rather than by city, so a Perth buyer sees the same numbers as anyone in Western Australia; what changes is the value you borrow against and the WA concessions that stack on top.
Buying in Perth
What changes when you compare home loans in Perth
Perth still buys more home per dollar than the eastern capitals, and Western Australia adds a state-owned low-deposit lending option on top of the usual concessions. Your interest rate does not change with your postcode, but the size of the loan does, and so does the cash going in. First home buyers in Perth can combine the Up to $10,000 First Home Owner Grant with the WA stamp duty concession and the federal Home Guarantee Scheme cap of $850,000 (Perth) / $600,000 (rest of WA). Those three can move your minimum deposit by tens of thousands without touching the rate column above.
