BankVic and Yellow Brick Road have gotten in the Christmas spirit by dropping their fixed and variable home loan rates by as much as 109 basis points.
Home loan interest rates have been on the downwards slide for large parts of the year thanks to the Reserve Bank, who have made not one, not two, but three cuts to the official cash rate. It's now sitting at a historically low 0.75%.
With a fourth interest rate cut likely on the way in February, it's unlikely these will be the last cuts to home loan interest rates we'll see so it may be worth holding out before fixing your loan.
