Why this matters

Your bank is counting on you not checking.

Sterling Bank offers home loans to Filipino borrowers, but like many bank products, the interest rate you signed up with years ago may no longer be competitive. As fixed-rate lock-in periods expire, many homeowners find themselves rolled onto standard variable rates that can sit between 8% and 10% — well above what leading Philippine banks are offering new borrowers today. Refinancing means switching your existing loan to a new lender at a lower rate, and on a 3,000,000 peso loan, even a 2–3 percentage point reduction can save you over 4,000 pesos every single month.

Nook is the Philippines' first digital mortgage broker, and our service is completely free for borrowers. We work with BDO, BPI, Metrobank, Security Bank, RCBC, UnionBank, Chinabank, EastWest Bank, and more — comparing their latest offers so you don't have to negotiate with each bank individually. Whether your Sterling Bank loan is on a fixed or variable rate, we can assess your situation and identify whether a refinance makes financial sense for you. You can check current mortgage interest rates in the Philippines to see how your existing rate stacks up against what's available right now.

The process is simpler than most homeowners expect. Nook handles the rate comparison, paperwork coordination, and bank communication on your behalf. You submit your documents once, and we present you with real offers from multiple lenders. There are no broker fees, no hidden charges, and no obligation to proceed if the numbers don't work out in your favour. If you're considering which bank to move to, our guide on BPI housing loan requirements is a useful starting point for one of the most popular refinance destinations in the country.

Common questions

What Sterling Bank home loan borrowers ask us.

Can I refinance my Sterling Bank home loan even if my fixed-rate period hasn't ended?

Yes, you can apply to refinance at any time, but it's important to check whether your Sterling Bank loan has an early repayment penalty or lock-in clause. Nook will review your loan terms with you before recommending any action, so you won't face unexpected charges that wipe out your savings.

How much can I realistically save by refinancing from Sterling Bank?

On a 3,000,000 peso loan at 8.50% with 20 years remaining, refinancing to 5.99% p.a. can reduce your monthly payment by over 4,500 pesos — that's more than 54,000 pesos a year. Actual savings depend on your specific loan balance, remaining term, and the rate you qualify for.

Is Nook's refinancing service really free for borrowers?

Yes, completely free. Nook earns a referral fee from the bank that accepts your application, so borrowers pay nothing for the comparison, advice, or application assistance. There are no broker fees, processing fees, or hidden charges from Nook's side.

Which banks can I refinance my Sterling Bank loan to through Nook?

Nook works with a wide panel of Philippine banks including BDO, BPI, Metrobank, Security Bank, RCBC, UnionBank, Chinabank, PSBank, and EastWest Bank, among others. We compare their current offers simultaneously so you can choose the best combination of rate, term, and flexibility for your situation.

How long does the refinancing process take?

The typical refinancing timeline in the Philippines runs between 4 and 8 weeks from application to loan release, depending on the receiving bank's processing speed and how quickly documents are submitted. Nook guides you through every step so the process moves as efficiently as possible.

Every month you wait costs you ₱4,544.
