On Tuesday, the Reserve Bank of Australia decided to decrease the Cash rate by 0.25% to 1.00%
It was a surprise move according to many economists in the media, as there was a rate reduction in the previous month of June.
Before the decrease in June, there were no rate changes for 18 meetings; this was a record.
The last time this happened was in 1996 more than two decades ago when the RBA went for 17 meetings with no changes to the Cash rate.
What does an interest rate decrease mean for home loan owners?
If you are on a fixed rate, this does not affect your monthly repayment.
For homeowners or investors with variable home loan rates, your bank will decide on how much of the 0.25% reduction they will pass on.
Some banks have made announcements already, and some will have set dates to when they make a decision.
If you are unsure, contact your bank or broker.
With lower interest rates, your minimum monthly will decrease, there are a few strategies you have with lower home loan repayments.
While the last option sounds nice, it is probably not the most financially sensible thing to do
ShannonJustin was brilliant to have as an broker. He worked with my schedule and got everything organised with good counsel and assisted with resolving any issues, and where he wasn’t able to personally, pointed me in exactly the right direction to work the issue, myself. Absolutely will be utilising his services again in the future.
Ilse & Dave HawkinsJustin guided us from start to finish with our refinancing process, and was able to get the lowest possible interest rate. He kept us informed and made it a simple and quick. Justin was a pleasure to deal with! Thank you Justin!
Dan & Lisa DuncanWe have worked with Justin to refinance our house and an investment property.
We had some complexities that Justin guided us through. He achieved a better rate and structure for us than we had dealing directly with the CBA.I have worked with other brokers over the years, but none as responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Thanks mate!
