If you choose to offset your First Reserve balance against your Offset Flexible Mortgage, you won't earn interest on the money in your First Reserve account as that balance is being used to reduce the interest you pay on your mortgage. If your First Reserve balance is higher than your mortgage balance, you will earn interest monthly on the amount over and above your outstanding Offset Flexible Mortgage balance. See our Offset Banking page for more information.

If you choose to offset your First Reserve balance against your Offset Flexible Mortgage, you won't earn interest on the money in your First Reserve account as that balance is being used to reduce the interest you pay on your mortgage. If your First Reserve balance is higher than your mortgage balance, you will earn interest monthly on the amount over and above your outstanding Offset Flexible Mortgage balance. See our Offset Banking page for more information.
