For the third year running, The Mutual Bank’s Budget Home Loan* has won a Mozo Experts Choice Home Loan Award in the coveted Low-Cost Home Loan category. The Mozo Experts Choice Awards have been helping consumers make informed purchase decisions for over a decade, with their extensive award selection process evaluating thousands of products. The Mutual Bank’s CEO, Mark Williams, said the triple win for the Budget Home Loan was fantastic news for the Hunter-based bank. “Our commitment to offering competitive products and making our Members’ mortgage journey more manageable has been recognised for the third year with a win in these awards, and that recognition highlights our dedication to helping people thrive,” he said. “We know people are always looking for better value products and services, particularly given the cost-of-living pressures.  Our Budget Home Loan has been consistently popular with home buyers looking for a no-frills home loan with a low, variable interest rate that is complemented by personalised and attentive service.” AJ Duncanson, Data Director and Mozo Experts Choice Awards Judge said The Mozo Experts Choice Home Loan Awards for 2025 help Aussie consumers cut through the noise and identify great value options. “The Mutual Bank’s Budget Home Loan stood out for its combination of a low interest rate and the fact it has no application fee and no monthly or annual service fee - features that can make a real difference to borrowers looking to keep costs down,” he said. Mozo considered thousands of rate variants across 444 home loans from 97 lenders.  For the Low Cost Home Loan category, the Mozo judges assessed variable rate loans for owner-occupier borrowers making principal and interest repayments, identifying these as the lowest cost for several different loan-to-value ratios.
