Are interest rates going up or down? March 31, 2021

Many clients have recently asked us where interest rates are going.  It is a great question – the RBA is guiding no changes to the cash rate for another few years, but the money market is suggesting otherwise as the economy potentially recovers post-COVID, and many housing markets across Australia are on the rise.

We recently saw CBA reprice their fixed interest rates, with their 2-year and 3-year rates becoming cheaper, but their 4-year fixed rate moving the other way.

So how are home loan rates determined, and by who – the RBA, or the Banks themselves?  What can you do to optimise your loan product and interest rate selections – also can you benefit from ‘Rate Lock’, and at what cost?

All this and more in today’s recording.  We hope you enjoy the discussion.
