Home loan rate cuts spark refinance frenzy
03 Oct 2021
Aussies looking to save money on their home loan are racing to take advantage of the latest frenzy of home loan rate cuts, as challenger and non-bank lenders show the big four banks how to put customers first by slashing rates to crazy new lows in 2021.
Challenger lenders like Macquarie, HSBC, UBank and Athena are proving particularly popular with refinancers after cutting their fixed and variable rates to new record lows this year, while online leader loans.com.au has generated strong refinance interest in the headline-stealing new sub 2.00% variable intro rate on its Smart Booster Home Loan.
The super sharp new rates on offer have created the perfect opportunity for savvy borrowers to shop around and potentially save thousands of dollars a year on their home loan by switching.
Mozo Director Kirsty Lamont said, "If you have a mortgage and your bank is not giving you rate relief, now is the time to strike and see how much you can save by switching to one of the incredibly low rates on offer from smaller lenders."
With top fixed and variable home loan rates now starting below 2.00%, there's never been a better time to review your current rate against the market. So if you'd like to crush your mortgage in 2021, take a look at some of the latest rates available right now and get switching!
