Mortgage Choice (ASX:MOC), Australia's largest independently-owned mortgage broker, has just launched its first two home loans-related infographics to help consumers who are confused about the ins and outs of interest rates and refinancing.

Infographics are visual representations of complex information, data or knowledge presented in a concise, easy-to-digest manner. These 'visual shorthand' images were created over a couple of months and now reside on the broker's website.

Company spokesperson Kristy Sheppard said, "'Interest rates' and 'refinancing' are two of the most commonly searched terms on the Mortgage Choice website."

"We created infographics about these important topics to cater to people who find it easier to absorb information through pictures. It saves them having to translate lengthy paragraphs of jargon-filled text.

"Mortgage Choice is delighted to be able to assist in removing the confusion around these two home loans-related topics frequently discussed in the media that so few people fully understand.

"Our newly created images will help satisfy consumers' eagerness to learn about these topics in way that doesn't intimidate or daunt the average Australian."

The refinance home loan infographics provides an overview of refinancing, explaining the nuts and bolts of doing so such as pitfalls to watch out for, different costs that might arise and the potential savings that can be made. It also contains useful insight and tips on what features to consider for homeowners wanting to refinance.

The interest rates infographics explains many of the factors influencing home loan interest rates. It illustrates the dynamics between key external factors and how these impact the cash rate, which in turn can potentially influence mortgage interest rates. Most importantly, it explains why different mortgage lenders have different rates.
