people jumping off towers as the rba cash rate goes up

Last Updated: 13 February at 11:30am

The Reserve Bank Australia has increased the cash rate by 25 basis points putting the new rate at 3.35%.

With each change to the cash rate last year, lenders raised their variable home loan rates in kind. We expect the same to happen again. But don’t despair, the good news is that we might see increases to savings and term deposit rates as well.

Which lenders have moved on home loan interest rates?

To help you keep track of home loan interest changes, this page will be regularly updated with the size of the increase and when it will come into effect.

Below, we’ve also included a snapshot of the average owner occupier^ home loan rates in Mozo’s database as of 7 February 2023 for reference. These numbers are likely to continue increasing in the coming weeks.
