Home loan rate cuts spark refinance frenzy

Aussies looking to save money on their home loan in 2021 are refinancing to smaller, more competitive lenders who showed the big four banks how to put customers first by acting swiftly to pass on the recent Reserve Bank rate cut to borrowers.
Challenger lenders like UBank and Athena are proving particularly popular with refinancers after passing through the full cut to variable borrowers, 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 variable home loan rates now dropping well below 2.50%, 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!
