Mortgage Rates in Botswana: What Home Buyers Should Compare
A mortgage is a long commitment. Rate changes, fees and the repayment term can materially change its total cost.
Understand the quoted rate
Ask whether the offer is fixed or linked to the bank's prime rate, how often it can change and whether the published range is indicative or personalised.
Budget for the full purchase
In addition to a deposit and instalments, allow for valuation, legal, registration, insurance and maintenance costs where applicable.
Compare offers consistently
Use the same property price, deposit and term. Compare total repayment and fees, ask about extra payments and test whether repayments remain affordable if rates rise.
