RBA Cuts Interest Rates: What It Means for Homeowners and Builders

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has recently reduced the official cash rate by 0.25 percentage points to 4.10%, marking the first rate cut in over three years. This move aims to ease financial pressures on households and stimulate economic growth. But what does this mean for homeowners and those looking to build a new home?
How Much Could You Save?
With major banks, including Westpac, Commonwealth Bank, NAB, and ANZ, passing on the full rate cut, mortgage holders stand to benefit. Here’s an estimate of potential savings:
- A $600,000 mortgage could see repayments drop by around $97* per month.
- A $750,000 mortgage could see repayments drop by around $122* per month.
- A $1 million mortgage could see repayments drop by around $162* per month.
