The cash rate just hit 4.60%. The last time it was this high? 2011. π
Hereβs what life cost back then:
π Median GC house β $480K
π Median GC rent β $350/week
β Coffee β $3.30
πΊ Schooner β $5.50
π Chicken parmi β $15
π₯ Loaf of bread β $2
πΊπΈ Aussie dollar β buying $1.10 US
Same interest rate. Completely different world.
Hereβs the part that matters: back in 2011, $480K bought you a Gold Coast house, with rates exactly where they sit today. Look what those same houses are worth now.
People panic when rates climb. History says the ones who buy through it are the ones smiling in ten years. Rates move in cycles. Property, over the long game, keeps heading one way.
