Which banks have raised mortgage rates

Last updated: 2:45 p.m. July 8

The Reserve Bank announced another official increase in the cash rate, this time by 0.50 basis points to 1.35%.

This is the third increase of the year, and many economists believe we will continue to see further rate hikes through 2022. In fact, Westpac economists predict rates will rise to as high as 1, 75% by the end of the year.

Over the past two months, we have seen lenders raise their interest rates for variable rate home loans, fixed rate home loans and savings accounts. In anticipation of today’s announcement, the Big Four have already raised their fixed rates, some by more than 100 basis points.

According to our database, all fixed rates below ‘2’ are now gone and it is likely that those still starting with ‘3’ will also decrease in the coming months.

Which lenders have changed home loan interest rates?

As before, the response times of banks and lenders to the announcement of the new cash rate will vary. To help you keep track of material changes, we will regularly update this page with the extent of rate increases and their effective date.

Below is an overview of the average home loan rates per homeowner in our database as of July 5, 2022, to use as a benchmark. Keep in mind that these are likely to jump more in the coming week:
