hi good day

got an offer of 3.85% for 949k full flexi but MRTA 54k, total loan 1003m

what would be a good value to reduce it to? i understand that MRTA is another type of insurance incase of death but i have already got life insurance

and is it possible to pay the MRTA value in cash rather than parking in under the loan?

thank you very much from a first time buyer

MRTA is not necessary. Discuss with the loan officer what’s the absolute lowest. You can shop around too. Some will allow as low as 10 years for half the loan amount.

referring to my above , got another offer for 3.8% (subject to 4 layer approval)

so i have 2 banks now

1) 3.85% for 90% loan + 20k MRTA <--- confirmed offer
2) 3.8% for 90% loan + 30k MRTT <------- subject to approval on interest rate

is it wrong for me to try asking the 1st banker for 3.8%?

Yes 3.8

just for added info, the 3.8% is a semi flexi loan while the 3.85% is a full flexi loan

heavily inclined to the full flexi loan after much advice from family

wanna know what you guys think

QUOTE
1) Full flexi 3.85% for 90% loan + 20k MRTA  (now changed to 19k CLTA)
2) Semi flexi 3.8% for 90% loan + 30k MRTT

otherwise you wont apply few bank and compare their loan package. Most of the thread here you will find out client is asking for which bank offer lowest interest rate in the market instead of asking what is the suitable package offer to them.

i'm in the Mortgage industry for more than 10 years so I know it.

some client even asking got bank offer interest rate lower than 3.8%.
