Five rate rises in one year. The cash rate is now 4.85%. 📈

On Tuesday 3 November 2026, the RBA raised the cash rate by 0.25% to 4.85%, its highest level since 2008. This time the Board was split, with six members voting to raise and three voting to hold. Inflation is now expected to stay above 3% until late 2027, so if you’re on a variable rate, your repayments are likely to go up again.

You can’t control what the RBA does next, but you can control how your loan is set up:
✅ Know your rate, repayment and any fixed-rate expiry date
✅ Check if your rate is still competitive
✅ Use your offset account to cut the interest you pay
✅ Review your loan structure before the rise hits

Do you always get knocked back by the banks? 🏓😢 Not the kind of ping pong we want to play.

Our brokers are much better at home loans than they are at table tennis, but we do know a thing or two about getting knocked back. It happens more than you’d think, because every lender has its own rules on things like income, credit history and deposit. So a “no” from one bank doesn’t always mean every lender will say no.

That’s where a mortgage broker comes in. At Loan Lounge, our Sydney brokers help you map out your strategy before you apply. We compare lenders and look for the right fit for your situation, so you’re less likely to get smashed by a surprise knock-back. Think of us as the partner who helps you serve up a plan. 🏡

Thinking of buying a car after your pre-approval? Read this first. 🚗🏡

Yes, a new car loan after pre-approval can affect your home loan. New debt can change how much you can borrow, and lenders check your situation again before settlement.

It’s not just cars either. Credit cards, buy now pay later and personal loans can all make a difference.

The right step is simple: ask your broker before any big money move. Pre-approval is a starting point, not a free pass to spend.

Want to be guided from pre-approval right through to settlement? Our brokers are happy to walk you through it. DM us or book a free consultation: https://ap1.hubs.ly/H01t3_00

Should you go with a Big 4 bank for your home loan? 🏦 Part 2 is here, and it’s not always an easy yes or no.

Two more questions to ask yourself before you pick a lender:

Are you only after the lowest rate?
Is your income a bit more complex than a standard pay slip?

Your answers can change which lender suits you best. Watch the reel to see what we’d consider.

Every situation is different, and that’s where a mortgage broker helps. At Loan Lounge, our Sydney mortgage brokers compare lenders and tailor your options to your circumstances. No judgement, no pressure.

The housing downturn isn't hitting every home the same way.

New data from Cotality's September Housing Chart Pack shows Australia's most expensive homes are leading the falls, while everyday properties are holding their ground.
→ Sydney's upper-quartile houses are down 10.7% from their peak
→ Melbourne's upper-quartile houses are down 10.5% from their peak
→ Lower-priced homes and units are proving far more resilient
→ The gap between top-end and lower-end unit values is widest in Sydney and Melbourne
→ Softening is now spreading to Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth too

Cotality Head of Research Gerard Burg noted that “early in the cycle, falling home values were largely confined to higher-priced properties in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra.” That story is now broadening, which matters whether you're buying, selling, or reviewing your existing lending.

If you're weighing up a purchase, an upgrade, or wondering what this means for your borrowing strategy, we'd be glad to help you make sense of it.

Should you go with a Big 4 bank for your home loan? 🏦

It’s a fair question. Banks like CBA, Westpac, NAB and ANZ are trusted household names, and that’s appealing. But the biggest bank isn’t always the best fit for every borrower.

One thing that can change the answer is your credit history. If you’ve had past credit issues, like defaults, some lenders may be less flexible than others. The good news: Australia has plenty of other established lenders, and some have products designed for different credit situations.

That’s where a mortgage broker helps. At Loan Lounge, our Sydney mortgage brokers compare lenders for you, so you’re not limited to one bank’s policies. No judgement, no pressure.

Questions 2 and 3 are coming in Part 2, so follow along so you don’t miss them. 👀

First home buyers haven't backed away from the market, the numbers say otherwise.

→ First home buyer lending reached $18.4 billion over the June quarter
→ That's 30.4% of all owner-occupier lending nationally
→ The Northern Territory recorded the highest share at 37.2%, reflecting its more affordable market
→ NSW and Queensland recorded the lowest shares, both at 27.0%

Higher borrowing costs haven't pushed first home buyers out, but they have made getting the structure right more important than ever. A smaller borrowing capacity means less room for error in how a loan is set up.

If you're a first home buyer trying to work out what's actually possible for you, we'd love to help you get clarity.

When the Google review comes in at 4 stars and you’re already drafting a “please explain” email 📞😤

(Kidding. Mostly. We’re a little competitive about those five stars.)

In all seriousness, thank you to everyone who’s left us good review on Google. Every one of them means a lot to our team. It tells us we’re doing right by you, and it helps other clients find a broker they can trust.

If you’re comparing mortgage brokers in Sydney, reviews are a great place to start. And if you want a hand with your home loan, you’re welcome to chat to our brokers. We’ll guide you through the whole process, from first questions to settlement.

Client: It’s just a little car loan.
Us: 😵‍💫 👀

Plot twist for anyone wondering: yes, a new car loan after pre-approval can affect your home loan. New debt can change your borrowing power, and lenders check your situation again before settlement.

This is why we say it every time: check in with your broker before any big money move. Cars, credit cards, buy now pay later, all of it. Pre-approval isn’t a free pass to go shopping.

Want to be guided from pre-approval right through to settlement? Our brokers are happy to walk you through it, no judgement and no surprises. DM us or book a free consultation: https://pages.loanlounge.au/meetings/nathaniel-truong

Rates went up. Your pay didn’t. 😅

So how do you handle rising interest rates without the stress? Cutting spending is only half the answer. Part 2 covers the other half: bringing more in, and checking you’re not paying more than you need to.
