If you have a PBCOM home loan, there's a good chance you're paying more than you need to. Nook connects you with partner banks offering rates from 5.99% p.a. — and our service is completely free.
PBCOM BORROWER SAVINGS ESTIMATE
No commitment. No credit check. Just your numbers.
Why this matters
The Philippine Bank of Communications (PBCOM) offers home loans, but like many mid-sized banks in the Philippines, their mortgage rates can climb significantly after the initial fixed period ends. Many PBCOM borrowers find themselves locked into rates of 8% to 9.5% or higher once their loan reprices — rates that made more sense years ago but are now well above what the market offers. If your PBCOM home loan has repriced recently or is due to reprice soon, now is exactly the right time to explore a refinancing transfer to a more competitive lender. You can check current mortgage interest rates in the Philippines to see how your rate stacks up against the market today.
Refinancing a PBCOM home loan through Nook means your application is submitted to multiple partner banks simultaneously — including BDO, BPI, Security Bank, Metrobank, and others — so you receive the most competitive offer available to you without having to shop around yourself. The process is fully digital and typically takes just a few minutes to get pre-qualified. Nook charges nothing to the borrower; we are compensated by the bank that wins your loan, creating a genuine incentive for us to find you the lowest rate possible.
To be eligible for a home loan refinancing transfer in the Philippines, your property generally needs to have a remaining loan balance of at least 500,000 pesos, a remaining term of at least five years, and no current defaults or arrears. Most borrowers with a stable income and a clean payment history on their PBCOM account will qualify. The bank that takes over your loan will require standard documentation including your latest Statement of Account from PBCOM, proof of income, and property documents — Nook guides you through every step of this process so nothing falls through the cracks.

Common questions
Yes, absolutely. Refinancing — sometimes called a housing loan balance transfer — is a standard financial product in the Philippines. Your new bank pays off your outstanding PBCOM loan balance in full, and you continue repayment with the new bank at a lower interest rate. PBCOM will charge a pre-termination fee (typically 1-3% of the outstanding balance), so Nook will help you calculate whether the long-term savings outweigh that one-time cost, which in most cases they do significantly.
It depends on your current rate, your outstanding balance, and your remaining term. As an example, a borrower with a 3,000,000 peso balance at 8.50% on a 20-year remaining term pays around 26,035 pesos per month. At 5.99% through a Nook partner bank, that same borrower would pay approximately 22,966 pesos — a saving of over 3,000 pesos every month and more than 550,000 pesos over the life of the loan. Use Nook's free calculator to get a personalised estimate based on your actual balance.
Getting pre-qualified through Nook takes just a few minutes online. From there, full loan approval at the receiving bank typically takes two to four weeks depending on how quickly documents are submitted and verified. Once approved, the actual loan transfer — where the new bank settles your outstanding PBCOM balance — takes another one to two weeks. Nook manages the coordination between all parties so the timeline stays on track.
No. Nook's service is 100% free to borrowers. We are paid a standard referral fee by the bank that successfully takes over your loan, which is built into their normal cost of doing business and does not affect the rate you receive. You get expert guidance, multiple bank comparisons, and full application support at zero cost to you.
Nook works with a broad panel of Philippine banks including BDO, BPI, Metrobank, Security Bank, RCBC, UnionBank, Chinabank, and more. Your application is assessed by multiple lenders simultaneously, and Nook presents you with the best offer. If you want to understand what individual banks require before you apply, you can read our detailed guide on BPI housing loan requirements as one example of what to expect from a major lender.
