Mortgage Pressure is Growing
Did you know that 40% of household income is now going toward mortgage repayments on average? That’s a huge jump compared to just 25% in the early 2000s. Yet, despite rising costs, over 40% of Aussie homeowners haven’t refinanced their loans in the past 5 years.

Why Refinancing Could Save You Big
Refinancing isn’t as complicated as it sounds, and the savings can be significant. The average borrower who refinances saves between $250–$500 per month simply by switching to a lower rate.
