Some days, I’m knee‑deep in client calls. Other days, I’m answering emails from the car between school runs. And during the holidays? I’m half mortgage broker, half chief entertainment officer for my son, Magnus.
Sound familiar?
The truth is, many of us are trying to keep up with work, with family, and with rising rates. And it can feel like there’s never enough time or money to go around.
That’s exactly why I created RateUnity. Because saving on your mortgage shouldn’t feel like another full‑time job.
A 4.89% Variable Rate That Might Work for You
Right now, RateUnity can offer access to a 4.89% variable rate for eligible owner-occupiers. It’s a 2-year introductory offer, which then reverts to a competitive ongoing variable rate.
This offer may not suit everyone it depends on your specific needs and financial goals. That’s why we always assess your situation first before making any recommendations.
How It Compares
Here’s a general look at how this rate stacks up next to a typical bank rate of 5.85% (used for illustrative purposes only):
Figures are based on 30-year principal & interest loans and are estimates only. Your actual repayments may vary.
What Balance Means to Me
After making the change myself, I realised balance isn’t about having it all. It’s about making smarter choices so you can enjoy more of what matters time, family, headspace.
That’s what we want for every RateUnity member. Whether you're refinancing or purchasing, it’s about understanding your options and finding what works for your situation.
Is It Time to Review Your Loan?
You might want to consider reviewing your loan if:
You’re paying more than 5.5%
You haven’t looked at your rate in over a year
Your goals have changed and you want more flexibility or lower repayments
Everyone’s situation is different. That’s why we take the time to understand yours before offering suggestions.
