- Move Home not your Home Loan
Once you're an FNB Home Loans customer, there's no reason to move! By staying with FNB you'll enjoy a number of fantastic benefits!
Move Home not your Home Loan
BENEFIT 1 - Save on attorney fees
You save on bond registration attorney fees. FNB will pay your bond registration fee for any new/another FNB Home Loan, or another property loan within your One Account. The benefit also applies to new home loans with a Future Use option. FNB will pay the full bond registration attorney fees for the home loan, including the Future Use portion.
BENEFIT 2 - Get an early termination fee rebate
The termination of a home loan without 90 days notice can cost up to 3 months of interest. Not so with our Move Home not your Home Loan offering! Early termination fees charged on the cancellation of a previous home loan will be rebated to you on a pro rata basis after the registration of the new home loan or property within your One Account.
For example, if you have a home loan with an outstanding balance of R500 000 at an annual interest rate of 10.5%, the early termination fee rebate is calculated as follows:
Calculation of the fee:
R500 000 multiplied by ((10.5 % divided by 365 days) multiplied by 90 days) = R12 945.21 R500 000 x ((0.105/365) x 90) = R12 945.21
Calculation of cancellation after 60 days:
R12 945.21 divided by 90 days multiplied by 30 days (remaining days of the notification period) = R4 315.07 You get R4 315.07 back!
BENEFIT 3 - Get a bond cancellation attorney fee subsidy
Bond cancellation attorney fee subsidy. The cancellation fee that you will need to pay the attorney for the cancellation of your previous Home Loan will be subsidised by FNB when the new Home Loan is registered
Will I qualify for Move Home not your Home Loan?
- You may be eligible provided you are an existing FNB Home Loans customer. Refer to Qualifying Criteria and Benefits applicable

- Only eligible Traditional Home Loans, One Accounts and Building Loans applications qualify.

Important points to consider
FNB cannot guarantee the approval of a future Home Loan application: NCA legislation and FNB pricing/risk criteria must still be considered. Please note that the new Home Loan application must be submitted via an authorised sales channel. Refer to Qualifying Criteria and Benefits applicable. Fees other than those expressly mentioned will be for the customer's own account.
The bank's initiation fee will be paid by the customer. The legal costs associated with the substitution of debtor transactions are explicitly excluded from the Move Home not your Home Loan offering. The payment of attorney registration costs by FNB is subject to grant and registration amount being equal to or greater than R600 000. The early termination fee rebate does not apply to Home Loans where the 90 days notice period has been served. Only Home Loans and One Accounts cancelled after 1 November 2008 will qualify for the early termination fee rebate and the cancellation attorney fee subsidy.
