The Urgency of Refinancing Now After the November RBA Review

The RBA kept the cash rate on hold in November, which many homeowners see as a sign to “wait and see”. But holding off can mean missing out on genuine savings. Lenders don’t always follow the RBA they adjust their own rates, remove discounts, or tighten policy at any time.

Refinancing now allows you to lock in a lower rate if you’re eligible and improve cash flow straight away. And if rates fall further next year, you can always refinance again. The cost of waiting, meanwhile, can be significant: higher monthly repayments, weaker borrowing power over time, and missing out on competitive offers available today.


With lenders aggressively targeting new customers, borrowers with strong credit and good equity are already accessing variable rates under 5 percent. Acting while your financial profile is strong gives you more control and more options.


Our Approach at RateUnity

RateUnity negotiates sharp rates by working with a panel of lenders who support competitive pricing. This provides borrowers with:

  • Access to below-market rate options

  • Support in comparing lenders without pressure

  • A clear recommendation on whether refinancing makes financial sense

If staying with your current lender is the best option, we’ll tell you that too.

Important Information: Interest rates are variable and subject to change without notice. Where an advertised rate includes an introductory or discount period, the rate reverts to the applicable standard variable rate at the end of that period. Application, ongoing, and other fees and charges may apply and vary by lender and product; the current fees for any product are confirmed before you proceed. Comparison rates are based on a secured loan of $150,000 over 25 years and include applicable fees; where a rate includes an introductory or discount period, the comparison rate assumes that period applies and then reverts to the applicable standard variable rate. WARNING: This comparison rate applies only to the example given. Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included but may influence the cost of the loan. This information is general in nature and does not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs. You should consider whether it is appropriate for you and review the applicable terms, fees and the lender's loan documentation before making any decision.
