Who is Bank of Melbourne?
Bank of Melbourne is the Victorian brand of the Westpac Group, relaunched in 2011 as a local alternative to the national banks and built on the former St.George network in Victoria. It grew quickly to more than 70 branches across the state within two years of launch.
Its home-loan range broadly mirrors the wider Westpac Group product set, with its own Victorian branch and banker network. Pricing at launch was positioned aggressively against the majors, including its own parent, and it continues to price as a challenger brand within the group.
Who suits a Bank of Melbourne home loan?
Bank of Melbourne tends to suit Victorian borrowers who want big-bank product breadth and branch access with challenger-brand pricing, including buyers who need its 12-month Relocation Loan to buy before they sell. If you are outside Victoria, the same group products are typically available through Westpac or St.George, so compare across the group before deciding.

What are Bank of Melbourne home loan rates?
Bank of Melbourne home loan rates are in the live table on this page. The lowest variable rate Ratesniffers ranks is currently 6.29% p.a., and the lowest fixed rate is 6.54% p.a., checked daily (last verified 11 Sept 2026).

What is the lowest Bank of Melbourne home loan rate?
Bank of Melbourne's lowest variable home loan rate is currently 6.29% p.a., and its lowest fixed rate is 6.54% p.a., based on the 353 Bank of Melbourne products Ratesniffers ranks by comparison rate, checked daily (last verified 11 Sept 2026). The advertised rate isn't always the rate Bank of Melbourne approves, a broker can often negotiate a sharper deal on your scenario.
What is the monthly repayment on a $600,000 Bank of Melbourne home loan?
At Bank of Melbourne's lowest variable rate of 6.29% p.a., a $600,000 principal and interest loan over 30 years repays about $3,710 a month, and $500,000 about $3,092. That is an estimate at the advertised rate before fees; the comparison rate in the table above carries the fees, and a fixed or interest-only loan repays differently.
How much do you need to earn for a $500,000 Bank of Melbourne home loan?
There is no single salary. Like every Australian lender, Bank of Melbourne must assess a new home loan at a rate at least 3 percentage points above the loan's rate under APRA's serviceability buffer, so 6.29% p.a. is assessed at about 9.29% p.a., then test that repayment against income after living expenses and other debts. The income required calculator at /calculators/income-required works this backwards from a property price and deposit.
How does Bank of Melbourne's home loan rate compare to the market?
Bank of Melbourne's lowest variable home loan rate today is 6.29% p.a., which is 5 basis points above the market median of 6.24% p.a., so there are sharper variable rates available elsewhere today, and it's worth comparing or asking Bank of Melbourne to match a lower rate. This is computed daily from the live rates across the lenders Ratesniffers tracks, so it reflects where Bank of Melbourne sits right now rather than a fixed snapshot.
How many home loan products does Bank of Melbourne offer?
Ratesniffers currently tracks 353 Bank of Melbourne home loan products across variable, fixed and interest-only options for owner-occupiers and investors. Every rate is checked daily against each lender's current published pricing and ranked by comparison rate, the ASIC-mandated figure that folds in most fees, so the genuinely cheapest loans sit at the top.
Is Bank of Melbourne competitive for refinancing?
It depends on your loan size and LVR. Bank of Melbourne's lowest comparison rate is currently 6.75% p.a., worth checking against the wider market before you switch. On a $500,000 loan, even a 0.30% p.a. difference is about $100 a month, so comparing Bank of Melbourne against the sharpest available rate usually pays off.
How often are Bank of Melbourne's home loan rates updated?
Ratesniffers refreshes Bank of Melbourne's home loan rates daily; this page was last updated 11 Sept 2026. Rates can change whenever Bank of Melbourne reprices or the RBA moves the cash rate, so the figures shown reflect the most recent data we hold rather than a static snapshot.

Funds are drawn in stages as construction progresses, interest is charged only on the amount drawn, and there is no fee to add the option.
Does Bank of Melbourne have its own banking licence?
No. Bank of Melbourne operates as a division of Westpac Banking Corporation, so its products are issued under Westpac's ABN 33 007 457 141 and Australian Financial Services and credit licence 233714 rather than a separate licence.

What are Bank of Melbourne's home loan rates in September 2026?

Does Bank of Melbourne do relocation loans?
Yes. Bank of Melbourne's Relocation Loan is a 12-month bridging loan for owner-occupiers buying a new home or land before selling the current one.

Can I get a Bank of Melbourne home loan with a 5% deposit?
Yes. Bank of Melbourne is a participating lender in the Australian Government 5% Deposit Scheme, so eligible first home buyers can apply from a 5% deposit and eligible single parents or guardians from 2%, with no LMI, on an owner-occupier principal and interest loan below the scheme's price caps. Rent paid through a licensed agent for six months can count as genuine savings.
Is Bank of Melbourne the same as Westpac?
Bank of Melbourne is owned by Westpac but runs as its own brand, with its own Victorian branch network and its own pricing, sharing much of its product set with St.George and BankSA. Because each Westpac Group brand prices separately, a Bank of Melbourne rate can differ from the Westpac rate on an otherwise similar loan, so compare all four in the table above.
