Who is St.George Bank?
St.George is one of Australia's best-known bank brands, a former building society that became a bank in 1992 and joined the Westpac Group in 2008 in what was then Australia's largest banking merger. Its dragon logo and NSW heartland have made it the group's biggest sub-brand.
St.George prices its own home-loan range separately from parent Westpac, alongside sister brands Bank of Melbourne and BankSA which share much of the same product set under their own local badges.
Who suits a St.George Bank home loan?
St.George tends to suit borrowers, particularly in New South Wales, who want big-bank product breadth with a challenger-brand feel and pricing. Because the same group products appear under Westpac, Bank of Melbourne and BankSA, compare across the group and against the sharpest rates in the table above before settling on a brand.

This is general information, not a recommendation to borrow.
What is a St George mortgage?
A St George mortgage is one of the Basic, Standard Variable Rate or Fixed Rate products in the live table on this page. In the 80% LVR owner-occupier principal-and-interest slot the live table shows 6.39% p.a. (6.75% comparison rate) for an owner-occupier principal-and-interest loan at 80% LVR, as of 27 August 2026.

This is general information, not a recommendation to borrow.
What are St.George Bank home loan rates?
St.George Bank 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 12 Sept 2026). Compare St.George 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 St.George Bank balance, use /calculators/extra-repayment.
What is the lowest St.George Bank home loan rate?
St.George Bank'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 48 St.George Bank products Ratesniffers ranks by comparison rate, checked daily (last verified 12 Sept 2026). The advertised rate isn't always the rate St.George Bank approves, a broker can often negotiate a sharper deal on your scenario.
What is the monthly repayment on a $600,000 St.George Bank home loan?
At St.George Bank'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 St.George Bank home loan?
There is no single salary. Like every Australian lender, St.George 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 6.29% 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 St.George Bank's home loan rate compare to the market?
St.George Bank'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 St.George Bank to match a lower rate. This is computed daily from the live rates across the lenders Ratesniffers tracks, so it reflects where St.George Bank sits right now rather than a fixed snapshot.
How many home loan products does St.George Bank offer?
Ratesniffers currently tracks 345 St.George Bank home loan products across variable, fixed and interest-only options for owner-occupiers and investors, and ranks the 48 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 St.George Bank competitive for refinancing?
It depends on your loan size and LVR. St.George Bank'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 St.George Bank against the sharpest available rate usually pays off.
How often are St.George Bank's home loan rates updated?
Ratesniffers refreshes St.George Bank's home loan rates daily; this page was last updated 12 Sept 2026. Rates can change whenever St.George 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.
Does St.George Bank offer an offset account, and what does it cost?
Yes. St.George's Standard Variable Rate home loan can be linked to a full 100% offset account, a Complete Freedom transaction account with zero account keeping fees. Up to 10 offset accounts can be linked to one loan. The Basic home loan has no offset and offers redraw instead. Packaging the loan under the Advantage Package carries a $395 annual fee.
What upfront and exit fees does St.George Bank charge on a home loan?
St.George's fee schedule lists a $600 lending establishment fee on Standard Variable and Fixed Rate loans ($0 on the Basic home loan), a $100 document processing fee at settlement, an $8 monthly loan account fee ($0 on Basic) and a $350 loan discharge fee when a loan is paid out. The Advantage Package waives the establishment and monthly fees.
How much deposit does St.George Bank need, and when is LMI payable?
St.George says you can buy with less than a 20% deposit, but Lenders Mortgage Insurance applies and you may need to show genuine savings, usually at least 5% of the purchase price held for three months. Rent can count as genuine savings. A Family Pledge, where a family member offers part of their own property as security, may let you avoid LMI with a smaller deposit.
Does St.George Bank lend to self-employed borrowers, and what income evidence does it accept?
Yes. Self-employed borrowers applying in their own name get the same loans and rates as salaried applicants, and St.George does not offer low doc loans. Fast Track assessment needs the last two years of ATO Notices of Assessment plus a 20% deposit; otherwise tax returns and business financials are assessed. The business must have traded for two full financial years.
Does St.George Bank offer construction loans?
Yes. St.George offers a building option on its Standard Variable Rate home loan for house and land packages, new builds and renovations. Funds are drawn in stages as construction milestones are completed, interest is charged only on the amount drawn, repayments are interest only until the build is finished, and there is no fee to add the option.
Does St.George Bank offer bridging loans?
Yes. St.George calls it a Relocation Loan: a short term loan of up to 12 months that lets you buy your next home before selling your current one. It is interest only with a $10,000 minimum, no required repayments during the bridging period because interest is capitalised, and it is available to owner occupiers only, not for investment purchases.
What are St.George's home loan rates in September 2026?
St.George's current home loan rates are in the live table above, ranked by comparison rate and refreshed from St.George's published pricing rather than frozen into this answer. The Basic Home Loan, Standard Variable Rate and Fixed Rate loans price differently by LVR band and purpose, so compare the comparison rate, which includes the Advantage Package fee where it applies.
St.George home loan review: what are the pros and cons?
Pros: a Basic Home Loan with $0 establishment and monthly fees, up to 10 offset accounts on a packaged variable loan, 5% Deposit Scheme participation and rent counted as genuine savings. Cons: the $395 Advantage Package fee is needed for packaged pricing, and the same products appear under Westpac, Bank of Melbourne and BankSA, sometimes at different prices. Compare across the group in the table above.
Does St.George charge an annual fee on its home loans?
Only under the Advantage Package, which costs $395 a year on at least $150,000 of lending and in return waives the $600 establishment fee and $8 monthly fee and gives a $0 annual fee on eligible credit cards. The Basic Home Loan sits outside the package with no establishment fee and no monthly fee, so its comparison rate carries fewer costs.
Can I get a St.George home loan with a 5% deposit?
Yes. St.George 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 legal guardians from 2%, with no LMI, on an owner-occupier principal and interest loan below the scheme's price caps. Rent paid for six months or more can count as genuine savings on owner-occupier loans.
Is St.George part of Westpac?
Yes. St.George is a division of Westpac Banking Corporation, and sister brands Bank of Melbourne and BankSA share much of its product set under their own badges. Each brand sets its own pricing though, so a St.George rate can differ from the Westpac rate on an otherwise similar loan. Compare all four brands in the table above before choosing one.
