Why this matters

Your bank is counting on you not checking.

EastWest Bank is one of the Philippines' growing full-service banks, and its housing loan product is a strong option for homebuyers and refinancers alike. With a 1-year fixed rate of 5.99% p.a., a 3-year fixed rate of 6.25% p.a., and a 5-year fixed rate of 6.49% p.a., EastWest offers some of the most competitive rates in the market today. Minimum monthly income requirement is P40,000, making it accessible to a wide range of employed professionals, OFWs, seafarers, and self-employed individuals. Typical loan approval takes around 19 days, and the bank accepts applications for a variety of purposes including refinancing, home equity, renovation, and purchase of ready-for-occupancy or pre-selling properties.

If you're currently paying 8% or higher on your existing home loan — whether with EastWest or another bank — refinancing could be one of the most impactful financial moves you make this year. Filipino homeowners on older loan packages are often locked into rates of 7% to 10%, sometimes without realising that the market has shifted significantly. By refinancing to a lower rate through Nook, you could reduce your monthly payment by thousands of pesos and save hundreds of thousands over the life of your loan. Check out our EastWest Bank housing loan calculator to run the numbers on your specific loan balance and remaining term.

Nook is the Philippines' first digital mortgage broker, which means we do the legwork of comparing lenders, preparing your documents, and liaising with EastWest Bank on your behalf — at zero cost to you.
