Q: Hi there. Trying to work what makes more financial sense over a longer period ...paying out a higher interest personal loan with withdrawing cash currently sitting on my house mortgage OR leaving the $$ on the mortgage? The interest rate is 12% v 4.95%
A: The benefit of using the redraw is obviously saving interest the downside is you are using equity which you may want to use for other purposes such as an investment property purchase.
