Who is National Australia Bank?

National Australia Bank was formed on 1 October 1981 through the merger of the National Bank of Australasia, established in Melbourne in 1858, and the Commercial Banking Company of Sydney, founded in 1834. It is one of the big four alongside Commonwealth Bank, Westpac and ANZ, and describes itself as Australia's largest business bank, serving more than eight and a half million customers across Australia and New Zealand.

In June 2022 NAB completed a $1.2 billion acquisition of Citigroup's Australian consumer business, including its home lending portfolio, bringing those customers onto NAB's own book. NAB also owns UBank as a separate digital-only brand with its own pricing, and has committed to keep its rural and regional branches open until at least 31 July 2027, with regional branches making up 47% of its network, the highest share of any big-four bank.

Who suits a National Australia Bank home loan?

NAB tends to suit borrowers who want big-four scale backed by a strong regional and rural branch commitment, offset users, since its variable loan with offset carries up to ten offset accounts, and borrowers who want to split fixed and variable in one loan. If a leaner digital lender suits you better, its own Ubank brand is worth comparing too, and NAB's headline rates don't always lead the market, so check its comparison rate against the sharpest in the table above.

National Australia Bank home loan fees and policy

  • NAB's advertised two-year fixed offer carries a $12 monthly service fee. The NAB Choice Package costs $395 a year and NAB states it removes home loan application fees and home loan monthly service fees, and waives the annual fee on one credit card.
  • NAB states its fixed rate home loans do not come with an interest offset facility. Offset accounts, up to ten of them, sit on the variable rate with offset product instead.
  • Additional repayments on a NAB fixed rate loan are limited to $20,000 within the fixed term before fees apply. Rate lock holds an approved fixed rate for 90 days and carries its own fee.
  • A NAB loan can be split between fixed and variable portions, which is how offset and fixed certainty are combined on one property.
  • NAB is listed as a participating lender for the Australian Government 5% Deposit Scheme, subject to the scheme's eligibility rules and property price caps.

National Australia Bank home loans: frequently asked questions

What are National Australia Bank home loan rates?

National Australia Bank home loan rates are in the live table on this page. The lowest variable rate Ratesniffers ranks is currently 6.44% p.a., and the lowest fixed rate is 6.34% p.a., checked daily (last verified 11 Sept 2026). Compare National Australia Bank against the wider market at /home-loans. The /guides/comparison-rate explains the fee-inclusive figure used to rank the table. To model extra payments on a National Australia Bank balance, use /calculators/extra-repayment.

What is the lowest National Australia Bank home loan rate?

National Australia Bank's lowest variable home loan rate is currently 6.44% p.a., and its lowest fixed rate is 6.34% p.a., based on the 60 National Australia Bank products Ratesniffers ranks by comparison rate, checked daily (last verified 11 Sept 2026). The advertised rate isn't always the rate National Australia Bank approves, a broker can often negotiate a sharper deal on your scenario.

What is the monthly repayment on a $600,000 National Australia Bank home loan?

At National Australia Bank's lowest variable rate of 6.44% p.a., a $600,000 principal and interest loan over 30 years repays about $3,769 a month, and $500,000 about $3,141. 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 National Australia Bank home loan?

There is no single salary. Like every Australian lender, National Australia Bank 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 6.44% p.a. is assessed at about 9.44% 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 National Australia Bank's home loan rate compare to the market?

National Australia Bank's lowest variable home loan rate today is 6.44% p.a., which is 20 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 National Australia Bank to match a lower rate. This is computed daily from the live rates across the lenders Ratesniffers tracks, so it reflects where National Australia Bank sits right now rather than a fixed snapshot.

How many home loan products does National Australia Bank offer?

Ratesniffers currently tracks 162 National Australia Bank home loan products across variable, fixed and interest-only options for owner-occupiers and investors, and ranks the 60 that pass our data-quality checks on this page. 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 National Australia Bank competitive for refinancing?

It depends on your loan size and LVR. National Australia Bank's lowest comparison rate is currently 6.57% 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 National Australia Bank against the sharpest available rate usually pays off.

How often are National Australia Bank's home loan rates updated?

Ratesniffers refreshes National Australia Bank's home loan rates daily; this page was last updated 11 Sept 2026. Rates can change whenever National Australia Bank reprices or the RBA moves the cash rate, so the figures shown reflect the most recent data we hold rather than a static snapshot.

How long does NAB take to approve a home loan?

NAB says conditional pre-approval can take a few hours in some cases and a few days or weeks in others, depending on how quickly documents arrive and how straightforward income is. Its conditional approval certificate is valid for 90 days. Formal approval follows once the property is valued and all loan conditions are met.

Does NAB charge an application fee or discharge fee on its home loans?
