Why this matters

Your bank is counting on you not checking.

RCBC (Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation) is one of the Philippines' leading commercial banks and a Nook partner bank, offering competitive housing loan rates starting at 7.00% p.a. for a 1-year fixed period and 8.00% p.a. for Home Equity loans. Whether you're purchasing a ready-for-occupancy property, refinancing an existing loan, or tapping your home equity, RCBC offers flexible options for salaried employees, self-employed professionals, and OFWs with a minimum monthly income requirement of ₱50,000. Typical loan approval takes around 49 days, and RCBC accommodates a maximum debt-to-income ratio of 30%.

If your current home loan was taken out a few years ago, there's a strong chance your interest rate is significantly higher than what RCBC and other banks are offering today. Many Filipino homeowners are still locked into rates of 8.5% to 10% or more — and every month that passes is money left on the table. Refinancing your home loan to a lower rate is one of the most effective ways to reduce your monthly cash outflow and free up funds for other financial goals. You can use our RCBC housing loan calculator to estimate your potential savings based on your current loan balance and rate.

Applying through Nook is 100% free for borrowers. As the Philippines' first digital mortgage broker, Nook compares offers across multiple partner banks — including RCBC — so you get the best available rate without the legwork. There are no broker fees, no hidden charges, and no obligation to proceed. If you're already paying an RCBC loan and want to explore refinancing options, or if you're considering switching from another bank, check out our guide on RCBC housing loan refinancing to understand the full process and what to expect. Note: interest rates are subject to change — always verify current rates directly with RCBC or through Nook before making any financial decisions.
