Waiting for interest rates to fall might sound sensible, but it could mean missing an opportunity in today's property market.

The Reserve Bank has increased the cash rate by a full percentage point in 2026, and further rises remain possible.

For prospective buyers, that raises an important question: is it better to purchase now or wait for borrowing costs to come down?

The case for buying now

Property prices have softened in many markets, giving buyers more choice and potentially greater negotiating power. Buying now could mean securing a suitable home without as much competition.

The downside? Higher interest rates mean larger repayments and potentially less borrowing power.

The case for waiting

Waiting could give you more time to build your deposit and strengthen your finances. And if rates eventually fall, your borrowing power may improve – although there's also a risk rates could rise further.

But lower rates could also bring more buyers back into the market, increasing competition.

Ultimately, the decision should depend on your circumstances, not predictions about interest rates.

Buying now and waiting both have their advantages. A conversation about your borrowing power and potential repayments could help you decide which approach makes more sense for you.

Higher Rates Squeeze Business Cash Flow 

Four interest rate rises in 2026 have already increased borrowing costs for Australian businesses, with the possibility of further increases adding to the uncertainty.

When interest rates rise, the impact can go beyond loan repayments. Equipment finance, commercial property loans and other variable-rate debts can all put pressure on cash flow, leaving less available for wages, stock, suppliers and day-to-day operating expenses.

 Now is a good time to review your business finance.

Ask yourself:
✅ Are your existing finance facilities still competitive?
✅ Could your repayments be structured more effectively?
✅ Are multiple debts putting unnecessary pressure on your cash flow?

Refinancing or restructuring won't always be the right move. Fees, charges and the overall cost of changing facilities need to be considered.

At Sunny Finance, we can help you review your existing business debts and compare available finance options to see whether your current structure still suits your business needs.

 Get in touch with our team to discuss your business finance options and help you make informed decisions about your cash flow.

🏡 Buying Off the Plan? Know What You’re Signing Up For

Buying a property before it’s built can be an exciting opportunity, but it also comes with risks that are important to understand before you commit.

Recent events involving property developer Bathla Group, which entered voluntary administration owing significant amounts, have highlighted the uncertainty some off-the-plan buyers can face — from questions around deposits to whether partially completed projects will ultimately be finished.

🔍 The potential benefits

Buying off the plan may allow you to:

✅ Secure a property at today's agreed price, with settlement occurring later
✅ Have additional time to save for your purchase
✅ Purchase a brand-new property with modern features and finishes

⚠️ But there are risks to consider

The final property may not be exactly what you expected. Construction could be delayed, the property's market value could change before settlement, or changes in your financial circumstances could affect your ability to obtain finance when settlement arrives.

There is also the additional risk associated with the developer's financial position and ability to complete the project.

📋 Do your homework before signing

Before committing to an off-the-plan purchase, consider:

🔹 Researching the developer and their track record
🔹 Carefully reviewing the contract
🔹 Getting independent legal advice
🔹 Understanding what happens if construction is delayed or circumstances change
🔹 Speaking with a finance professional early about your borrowing capacity and potential settlement requirements

💡 Finance is particularly important with off-the-plan purchases. Your income, liabilities, borrowing capacity, lender policies and the property's valuation can all change between signing the contract and settlement.

Thinking about buying off the plan? Speak with Sunny Finance early so you can understand your finance options and prepare for settlement.

📊 Know Your Numbers Before Rates Move

Could your household budget handle another interest rate rise?

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has already increased the cash rate by 0.75 percentage points in 2026 as it works to bring inflation under control. With inflation still elevated, another increase remains a possibility.

While no one can predict exactly when rates will move, understanding your financial tipping point can help you prepare for what comes next.

🏡 Here's what to review before rates change:
✔️ How much of your monthly income is left after mortgage repayments?
✔️ Could you still cover unexpected expenses?
✔️ Are your savings goals still achievable?
✔️ Do you have enough breathing room for other debts and regular commitments?

If higher repayments would put pressure on your budget, knowing where you stand now gives you more time to explore your options.

💡 A mortgage health check could help you understand your current loan, compare available rates and identify ways to build a stronger financial buffer.

At Sunny Finance, we're here to help you understand your options and make informed decisions about your home loan.

🏢 Trust reforms put business restructuring in focus

If your business operates through a family or discretionary trust, proposed tax changes could be worth keeping on your radar.

Around 18% of Australia’s registered businesses operate through trusts, with many of these being small businesses.

The Federal Government has proposed introducing a minimum 30% tax rate on discretionary trusts from 1 July 2028, subject to certain exceptions.

For businesses considering changing their structure, rollover relief is proposed to be available for three years from 1 July 2027. However, there are calls for state governments to provide similar relief to help avoid additional tax costs when restructuring.

💡 Why does this matter?

Changing a business structure isn't simply a tax decision. It can also affect:

• Ownership of property and other assets
• Existing contracts and business arrangements
• Finance and lending structures
• Future borrowing capacity and funding needs

Before making any changes, it’s important to speak with your accountant and legal adviser to understand the tax and legal implications.

And if restructuring means existing loans need to be changed — or your business needs new funding — a conversation with your mortgage or finance broker can help you understand the lending side of the equation.

📩 If you're considering restructuring your business and want to understand how it could affect your existing or future finance, feel free to get in touch.

Stronger Contract Protections on the Way 📄🔍

If your business regularly signs standard-form contracts, proposed legal changes could give you greater protection when dealing with larger organisations.

Many small businesses have limited opportunity to negotiate. Instead, they may be presented with a contract on a “take it or leave it” basis.

The Federal Government has announced plans to strengthen Australia’s unfair contract term laws by giving ACCC and ASIC greater powers to enforce the rules.

Why do the proposed reforms matter?

The changes would allow regulators to issue infringement notices for breaches, potentially making enforcement faster and more flexible than relying solely on court action.

They build on earlier reforms that:

✅ Made unfair contract terms illegal
✅ Increased maximum penalties to $100 million per offence
✅ Expanded protections to more small businesses

The proposed changes follow a government review which found that the existing regime had been successful, but could be strengthened further.

Contracts still deserve a closer look

Stronger protections are welcome, but they don't remove the need to carefully review agreements before signing.

Whether you're dealing with a supplier agreement, equipment lease, commercial property arrangement or finance contract, understanding the key terms upfront can help reduce the risk of unexpected costs and disputes later.

📌 Before signing an important business contract, make sure you understand what you're agreeing to and seek professional legal advice where appropriate.

SMSFs Can Still Buy Commercial Property 🏢📈

While one SMSF investment strategy has been closed off, another option remains available for some business owners.

The federal government’s new rules prevent self-managed super funds from using borrowed funds to purchase residential investment properties.

But commercial property is different.

SMSFs can still use borrowing arrangements to acquire commercial property, including business premises, provided the relevant superannuation rules are met.

How can it work?

For some business owners, an SMSF strategy may involve:

🏢 Purchasing business premises through the SMSF
🏬 Leasing the property back to the business
📈 Building a long-term retirement asset
🔑 Giving the business greater certainty over its premises

However, SMSF borrowing isn’t a one-size-fits-all strategy. Structures can be more complex than standard commercial lending, and there are important superannuation, lending and financial considerations to understand.

Commercial property finance can also vary significantly between lenders, particularly when an SMSF is involved.

Thinking about purchasing your business premises through an SMSF?

Before making a decision, it’s important to understand the lending options, structure and long-term implications.

As a mortgage broker, I can help you compare available commercial finance options and understand how different lending structures may work for your circumstances.

📩 Get in touch to discuss your options.

General information only. SMSF strategies involve legal, tax and financial considerations. Seek advice from appropriately qualified professionals before proceeding.

ATO warns businesses to check their claims ⚠️

The ATO is stepping up its use of data and analytics to identify incorrect tax deductions and GST claims — making accurate records more important than ever.

Common issues being targeted include:

🔹 Claiming private expenses as business deductions
🔹 Over-claiming GST credits
🔹 Claiming GST credits when GST wasn’t included in the purchase
🔹 Incorrect information on BAS or tax returns
🔹 Poor or missing financial records

Businesses that get it wrong could face amended tax liabilities, audits and penalties.

But good record-keeping isn't just about staying on the right side of the ATO.

📊 It can also help when applying for business finance.

Lenders generally rely on complete and reliable financial information when assessing a business’s financial position. Keeping your records accurate and up to date can make it easier to demonstrate your business performance when finance is needed.

Before lodging your next BAS or tax return, it may be worth taking the time to review your records and claims carefully.

🏦 RBA HOLDS CASH RATE AT 4.35%

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has decided to keep the cash rate unchanged at 4.35% following its August monetary policy meeting.

While there are some tentative signs that inflation is moving in the right direction, the RBA isn’t ready to declare victory just yet.

📊 Inflation remains a key focus

Annual trimmed mean inflation — the RBA’s preferred measure of underlying inflation — remained at 3.6% in the 12 months to June 2026, unchanged from May.

RBA Governor Michele Bullock has also indicated that underlying inflation is still too high and that further easing in demand may be needed to bring inflation sustainably back towards target.

The Board also appears mindful that the impact of previous rate increases is still working its way through the economy.

What does this mean for borrowers?

For homeowners and prospective buyers, a prolonged pause means it's a good time to review your current position.

Whether you're considering:
🏠 Buying your first home
🔄 Refinancing your existing loan
💰 Accessing equity
📉 Reviewing your current repayments
📈 Assessing your borrowing capacity

Understanding how the current rate environment affects your individual borrowing power and repayments can help you make more informed decisions.

If you're wondering what the current cash rate environment means for you, feel free to reach out for a chat.

At **Sunny Finance**, we'll compare your current loan against today's options and help you understand whether refinancing is worthwhile—without the guesswork.
