Banks that charge unfair exit fees on mortgages can expect to feel the wrath of the corporate regulator.
An ASIC representative told a parliamentary committee that it was gearing up to enforce laws that would protect consumers from unfair contracts, including bank contracts.
Under the new regulations, which come into play from 1 July, a term will be regarded ‘unfair’ if it causes significant imbalance in the parties’ rights and obligations arising under that contract.
ASIC chairman Tony D’Aloisio said there will be “additional rights that will exist in dealing with mortgage exit fees where consumers feel there has been unfairness or unconscionability”.
But Nationals senator John Williams said the new laws did not go far enough and should be prohibited outright.
Mr Williams told the Australian Financial Review, that customers were being handcuffed to their bank.
“While you have an exit fee, the bank might have a monthly charge…but you are not going to pull out because you have got to pay a $1,000 exit fee so you are actually handcuffed to their product,” he said.

In this episode of Investing Insights with Right Property Group, Steve and Victor discuss the numerous property investment strategies taking an in-depth look of two of the most common ones.
They will share the strategies which they have implemented and seen the most success from, look at why they work, and discuss why some strategies are dangerous and should in their opinion be avoided.
Steve and Victor also discuss blue chip properties and their mindset surrounding these as investments, how infrastructure impacts property prices and how to make that work to your advantage. They will also unpack whether now is still a good time to invest in the property market.

Called “Request an Auction”, the new functionality enables users to watch and bid on any Sydney or Melbourne auction remotely.
Through Gavl, prospective buyers are now able to register to bid on their preferred auction. The platform will obtain permission from the listing agent and confirm within 48 hours.
Vendors can also request to have their auctions broadcast to a larger buyer audience.
Co-founder Joel Smith said that auctions streamed on Gavl attract 47 per cent more viewers than traditional ones.
He said that Request an Auction will be valuable for remote buyers.
“Buyers are able to have Gavl attend any auction they nominate, so they will never have to miss out on an opportunity due to logistical complications in physically attending the auction.
“Vendors, too, have the opportunity to directly book an auction with us, so they can open up their event to buyers all around the world. With more potential buyers, they’re giving their property the chance to receive more bids and maximise their sales result.”
Mr Smith said that prior to the Request an Auction app, buyers were limited to what they could achieve through the Gavl technology.
Gavl is a live-streaming and bidding platform for real estate auctions.
Mr Smith said that it has streamed more than 6,000 auctions, which have achieved 3.5 million views from 50 countries.
Gavl’s Request an Auction function is currently being offered in Melbourne and Sydney only.
