β€œI love to make money, but I don't just work for money; I love what I do. I work for the art. I've always felt like money is like the ocean – it rolls in, it rolls out, and you have to keep an open hand, an open mind, an open heart. But you have to keep your brain in gear. Money is good, but it's not everything. I think if you do good work and keep your mind on your business, you'll make enough.” Dolly Parton

You track your steps. Your sleep. Your heart rate. But when did you last check your mortgage rate? πŸ‘‡

In a recent survey clients, almost 1 in 3 homeowners told us they'd never reviewed their home loan since taking it out.

The cash rate has now been held at 4.35% for two meetings running, after three rises earlier this year. But a hold doesn't mean your loan is still competitive; if you haven't reviewed it in the past 12 months, there's a good chance you're not on the best deal available.

Here's the thing - your lender isn't automatically keeping your rate competitive. The best deals go to new customers. Long-term borrowers quietly drift onto higher rates without realising it.

In many cases, a better rate doesn't even require refinancing. A broker negotiating on your behalf with your existing lender is often all it takes.

If you'd like us to run a free comparison and check whether you're on the best rate available - get in touch.πŸ’¬

The August Cotality Housing Chart Pack just dropped, and there's a lot in it worth knowing. πŸ‘‡

πŸ”» National dwelling values fell 1.9% over the three months to July - Sydney and Melbourne led the pullback, down 4.0% and 3.4% for the quarter, and both now slightly negative for the year too

πŸ”Ί Zoom out nationally though, and annual growth is still positive at 5.3%, with Perth (+20.5%), Brisbane (+14.8%) and the regions (+9.7%) doing the heavy lifting

🏠 Homes are taking a little longer to sell (35 days, up from 29 a year ago), and vendor discounts have widened to 3.8% β€” good news if you're negotiating as a buyer

πŸ“ˆ Rents are still climbing, up 5.9% annually and outpacing wage growth of 3.3%

Uncertainty is a reason to be thoughtful. Not a reason to stop.

Equity on paper isn't the same as equity you can actually use. πŸ‘‡

It's one of the questions we hear most, in fact it was on the most common questions in our recent client survey.

Swipe through to see the difference, what actually limits your usable equity, and a real example on a $1,000,000 property.

The RBA has left the cash rate on hold this month. No change, no news, right?

Not quite. πŸ‘‡

Even when the RBA holds, lenders keep moving:

🟒 Competition between lenders is heating up
🟒 Some are adjusting rates to win new business
🟒 Cashback deals are back on the table for eligible refinancers
🟒 New loan products are landing, built for different types of borrowers

A hold from the RBA doesn't mean your options have stayed the same.

If you're buying, investing, refinancing, or just wondering whether your current loan is still pulling its weight, DM us. We keep our finger on the pulse so you don't have to.

The RBA meets 10–11 August. Hold or rise? Here's what the market is watching. πŸ‘‡

The cash rate has been at 4.35% since May, after three hikes this year. Since then, the June quarter inflation numbers came in softer than expected. That's shifted the mood.

All four major banks are now leaning toward a hold on Tuesday. But the RBA has been clear it will move again if it needs to, so this one isn't a foregone conclusion.

Decision drops next Tuesday. We'll have the result and what it means for your repayments up straight after.

Got a rate question before then? DM us.πŸ’¬

If you’ve got an auction coming up and you’re feeling nervous, you’re not alone.

In this video, David Ramyan shares why knowing your numbers beforehand is key to bidding with confidence.

The pressure of a fast-moving auction can make it easy to lose sight of what matters. Before you bid, make sure you understand:
1. Your walk-away number
2. Your repayment comfort zone
3. Your financial buffer line

With the right finance strategy in place, you can make decisions based on confidence, not pressure.

"I would recommend Indigo Finance to anybody." πŸ™Œ

This client has been with us through three mortgages now, and that kind of trust is what we work for every day.

"Melanie and her very friendly team go above and beyond to provide a caring personal service you would not get through the banking system."

That's the difference a broker relationship makes over the life of your loan, not just at settlement.

Using equity in your home to buy an investment property? Your lender might be tying both properties together without you realising it. πŸ‘‡

It's called cross-collateralisation, and it sounds complicated but the idea is simple: instead of each property having its own separate loan, both properties become security for the combined debt.

It can feel convenient at first. Less paperwork, one lender, your equity put to work.

But it can also mean:
πŸ’¬ Selling one property later isn't as simple as it should be
πŸ’¬ Refinancing needs your lender's sign-off on your whole portfolio, not just one loan
πŸ’¬ A problem with one loan can affect the other

There's another way to structure it that keeps your properties separate while still using your equity to grow your portfolio.

Check out our blog for the full explainer: https://www.indigofinance.com.au/cross-collateralisation-explained/
