    The Rate Drop Is Here—But Is Your Bank Playing Fair?

    The Reserve Bank’s latest cash rate cut to 3.85% has made headlines — but here’s what isn’t making the news: millions of mortgage holders could be missing out on savings simply because they haven’t reviewed their loans.

    Let’s be honest. When interest rates go up, lenders act fast. But when they drop? Things move at a crawl. While some banks proudly announce their new “lower” rates, many quietly delay or soften the pass-through. And if you’re not watching closely, you might be left paying more than you should.

    Here’s the catch:

    If you haven’t reviewed your loan in the past six months, chances are your lender isn’t offering you their best deal.

    For a typical $500,000 loan, a 0.25% rate cut could save you around $72 a month — or more, if you’re sitting on a stale or outdated rate. That’s over $860 a year just for taking five minutes to check in.

    Right now, lenders are fighting harder than ever for borrowers. This is the perfect time to ask:

    • Is your interest rate still competitive?
    • Has your lender passed on the full rate cut?
    • Can you reduce repayments or unlock equity to fund your next investment?

    This isn’t just about saving money—it’s about building wealth.

    Smart investors don’t leave money on the table. They use moments like this to get ahead. Every dollar saved in interest is a dollar that can work harder elsewhere.

    Don’t let complacency cost you. The banks are counting on it.

    We’ll help you review your loan, assess your options, and work out whether your lender is still the right fit. Whether you’ve got one property or five, this is a simple step with real financial upside.
