YOUR POTENTIAL MONTHLY SAVINGS
No commitment. No credit check. Just your numbers.
Why this matters
RCBC is one of the Philippines' most established commercial banks, offering competitive home loan products for buyers and homeowners across the country. For 2026, RCBC's 1-year fixed rate starts at 7.00% p.a., with a Home Equity rate of 8.00% p.a. These are solid rates for a major bank — but if your existing mortgage is repricing or you locked in at a higher rate years ago, you could be leaving significant savings on the table. Through Nook, you can compare RCBC's rates against other partner banks and find out if refinancing makes sense for your situation. Check the RCBC housing loan refinance guide to understand what switching could mean for your monthly payments.
Refinancing your home loan through Nook is 100% free — Nook earns from the bank, not from you. The process is fully digital, and Nook's mortgage specialists handle the comparison, paperwork coordination, and bank liaison on your behalf. RCBC accepts borrowers from a wide range of employment backgrounds including private employees, OFWs, seafarers, self-employed individuals, and licensed professionals. The minimum monthly income requirement is P50,000, and typical approval takes around 49 days. Maximum debt-to-income ratio is 30%, which is standard across most major Philippine banks.
If you're currently paying 8%, 9%, or even 10% on a home loan, the math is straightforward: refinancing to 5.99% p.a. on a P3,000,000 balance over 20 years saves you over P1,700 per month. That's more than P400,000 in total interest over the life of the loan. Before your next repricing date arrives, it's worth knowing exactly where you stand.
