🐶 My dog has a question...

Why are you still using a bank?

The latest industry statistics show that 81% of Australian borrowers now choose a mortgage broker instead of going directly to a bank.

And it makes sense.

When you walk into a bank, they'll tell you about their products.

When you speak to a mortgage broker, you'll have access to a panel of lenders and someone who works for you, not the bank.

🏡 More choice
🏡 More competition
🏡 More lending options
🏡 More opportunity to find the right solution for your situation

Whether you're buying your first home, refinancing, investing or simply wondering if your current loan is still competitive, it may be time to see what your options look like.

After all, if 81% of borrowers are choosing a broker, perhaps they know something your bank doesn't want you to know. 😉

In a business meeting this morning, I noted that the dynamics are in place for interest rates to level out and possibly decrease in the future, as evidenced by some banks lowering their fixed rates. Looks like NAB agree 😅 this sets the scene for stability and a great selling season come spring.

📢 GOOD NEWS FOR HOMEOWNERS & BUYERS 📢

ANZ has just reduced its 2-year fixed home loan rate by 0.10%, bringing it down to 6.29%.

While fixed rates haven't been the flavour of the month for some time, it is good to see ANZ become a little more competitive in this space again. If you've been sitting on the fence waiting to see where rates are heading, it may be worth reviewing your options.

Now is a great time to review your current lending structure.

Remember, there is no "one size fits all" solution when it comes to home loans. The right strategy depends on your goals, future plans, and cash flow requirements.

🏡 Only Have a Small Deposit? You Might Be Closer to Buying Than You Think.

One of the biggest myths I hear is:

💬 "I'll call you when I've saved a 20% deposit."

What if you didn't need 20%?

I currently have access to a lending solution that allows eligible borrowers to borrow up to 98% of the property's value.

✅ Just a 2% deposit required
✅ Available for anyone, not just first home buyers
✅ No Mortgage Insurance premium
✅ Lender fees which are lower than traditional Mortgage Insurance
✅ Owner Occupied rates at 6.39% p.a.*

You still need the income to support the lending, but if you're a professional, business owner or high-income earner who has a great income but hasn't had years to build a large deposit, this could be a game changer.

Whether you're looking to buy your first home, upgrade sooner, or stop watching property prices move while you save, it's worth finding out if you qualify.

🏡 Is Your Home Loan Still Working for You?

Many homeowners are still sitting on interest rates that no longer reflect what's available in today's market.

💰 With some lenders currently offering rates from 5.89% p.a. for eligible owner-occupied loans under 80% LVR, now is a great time to review your home loan.

A quick review could help you:
✅ Reduce your repayments
✅ Save thousands in interest
✅ Access better loan features
✅ Put your home loan back to work for you

The best part? You don't need to change banks to find out if you're getting a good deal.

Whether you're looking to save money, renovate, invest, or simply make sure you're not paying more than you need to, a home loan health check is a smart place to start.

Here is another great listen from the team at Metrapole. This contains some very important common sense information and as always, listen and educate (not from the media) and then make up your own mind on what is right for you.

One thing I think people need to remember is that there isn't just one property market in Australia.

When you hear headlines about property prices falling, they're often talking about Sydney and Melbourne. While those markets are facing some challenges, the fundamentals in South East Queensland remain very different.

Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast and the Gold Coast continue to see price growth, although at a slower pace than we've experienced over the last few years. The market is quieter, buyers have more time to make decisions, and competition isn't as intense.

In my experience, this is often when the savvy buyers make their move.

When everyone else is waiting to see what happens, opportunities can be found by those who are prepared and ready to act.

If you're thinking about buying in the next 6-12 months, now is a great time to get your pre-approval organised so you're ready when the right property comes along.
