🏡 Offset accounts surge as homeowners aim to beat rising rates 🏡 ⁣
⁣
Looking for potential ways to beat higher interest rates?⁣
⁣
You're not alone. One of Australia’s big 4 banks, NAB, says they're seeing the uptake of offset accounts “surge”. ⁣
⁣
Here's how they work.⁣
⁣
Instead of being paid interest on the money in the linked offset account, the balance is deducted from your mortgage when loan interest is calculated. ⁣
⁣
And that’s just the first way you can save on interest. 💰⁣
⁣
Because you're paying off more of the principal each month, that allows you to chip away at your home loan balance quicker, which in turn can also help you save on interest over the long run. ⁣
⁣
Call us to see if an offset account could be suited to your needs. 👇⁣

💰 How much do you need to earn to buy a home? 💰⁣
⁣
Domain recently looked at the income needed to buy a home, assuming a 20% deposit. ⁣
⁣
It found a solo buyer needs an annual income from $232,000 to buy in Sydney, or $111,000 to buy in Darwin. 🏡⁣
⁣
For couples, each person may need to earn $121,000 in Sydney, or just $68,000 for more affordable capitals. ⁣
⁣
The catch is these were figures for houses. ⁣
⁣
Apartments may require a lower income. 🏢⁣
