Are your finances in order? Rate hike exposes ‘bad mortgage strategy’ as an expensive problem
On The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant sat down with Finni Mortgages principal Eva Loisance to examine what the latest move by the Reserve Bank of Australia means for investors and home owners.
Loisance warns that many Australians don’t even know their current mortgage rate, leaving them exposed as repayments rise and buffers get squeezed.
She explains that outcomes will vary depending on loan structure, offsets, and fixed-rate exposure, making it critical to review loans, compare rates, and consider refinancing before pressure builds.
The episode also explores looming policy risks, including potential tax changes and self-managed super fund (SMSF) lending restrictions, which could further reshape the market.
As conditions tighten, the duo is clear: this isn’t a wait-and-see moment, it’s a time to reassess strategy, or risk being caught out by the next move.
