To access your surplus through NedRevolve, you need a Nedbank bank account. Link your home loan to your digital banking profile. Withdrawals start at R1 000.
What full funding and paying off the balance mean for your home loan
Financing 100% is not guaranteed. Nedbank weighs your credit history, property value and affordability, so a deposit may still be needed to buy your home.
Paying off your balance doesn’t close the account or cancel the bond. While it stays open, the R69 monthly fee and applicable insurance premiums continue.
Your interest rate comes before the smaller fees
Your rate depends mainly on your credit history and deposit, set after application and credit assessment. Bond registration and property transfer also bring attorney and Deeds Office fees.
Nedbank debits interest monthly. Its initiation fee is R6 037, except on readvances. The R69 service fee sits in your monthly instalment. Both fees include VAT.

Supply a valid SA ID or passport, three months’ income proof and bank statements, and an offer signed by all parties, if applicable.
