\"\"Drumroll \u2026 The RBA has hiked the official cash rate for the 12th time since April 2022, increasing it to 4.10%. How much will this increase your monthly repayments? And how long does Philip Lowe plan to keep marching to this beat?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another month, another 25 basis point cash rate rise. It\u2019s now apparent the cash rate pause back in April was nothing but a false peak.<\/p>\n

Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Governor Philip Lowe\u00a0explained in a statement<\/a>\u00a0that while inflation in Australia had passed its peak, at 7% it was still too high and it would be some time yet before inflation was back in the 2-3% target range.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis further increase in interest rates is to provide greater confidence that inflation will return to target within a reasonable timeframe,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Governor Lowe added that some further tightening of monetary policy may be required to ensure that inflation returned to target in a reasonable timeframe, but that would depend upon how the economy and inflation evolved.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf high inflation were to become entrenched in people\u2019s expectations, it would be very costly to reduce later, involving even higher interest rates and a larger rise in unemployment,\u201d Governor Lowe explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cRecent data indicate that the upside risks to the inflation outlook have increased and the Board has responded to this.\u201d<\/p>\n

How much could this latest hike increase your mortgage repayments?<\/h3>\n

Unless you\u2019re on a fixed-rate mortgage, the banks will likely follow the RBA\u2019s lead and increase the interest rate on your variable home loan very shortly.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s say you\u2019re an owner-occupier with a 25-year loan of $500,000 paying principal and interest.<\/p>\n

This month\u2019s 25 basis point increase means your monthly repayments could increase by almost $76 a month. That\u2019s an extra $1,135 a month on your mortgage compared to 3 May 2022.<\/p>\n

If you have a $750,000 loan, repayments will likely increase by about $114 a month, up $1,702 from 3 May 2022.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a $1 million loan will increase by about $152 a month, up about $2,270 from 3 May 2022.<\/p>\n

Concerned about how you\u2019ll meet your repayments?<\/h3>\n

A lot of households around the country will now be feeling the pain of these 12 rate rises. So if your household is one of them, know that you\u2019re not alone.<\/p>\n

Similarly, there are likely a lot of people on fixed-rate home loans wondering just what options will be available to them once their fixed-rate period ends.<\/p>\n

Whatever your situation, please know that there are options we can help you explore.<\/p>\n

Some of those options might include refinancing (which could involve increasing the length of your loan and decreasing monthly repayments), debt consolidation, or building up a bit of a buffer in an offset account ahead of more rate hikes.<\/p>\n

So if you\u2019re worried about how you might meet your repayments going forward, give us a call today.<\/p>\n

The earlier we sit down with you and help you make a plan, the better we can help you manage any further rate hikes.<\/p>\n
