How much more are your mortgage repayments after the cash rate hikes?
This month, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) bucked the trend and announced a 25 basis point increase, as opposed to the previous four months’ of 50 basis point hikes. The news came to the relief of Australian households already struggling with higher mortgage repayments.
RateCity has crunched the numbers on several home loan amounts to determine what your repayments could be if your lender has passed on every cash rate hike in full. For a homeowner on a $750,000 home loan, their repayments are now over $1,000 more than prior to the first rate hike.
These repayment calculations are based on a 25-year loan, at an initial interest rate of 2.86% in April - as per the RBA’s average existing customer rate at the time.
