A number of lenders have raised rates on their fixed rate home loans over the past month. Is it time you fixed your mortgage before it’s too late?
The latest national home loan approval data from Mortgage Choice has revealed more borrowers are choosing fixed rate home loans.
Fixed rate home loans made up 19.51% of all home loans written in November – approximately 1 in 5 borrowers. This is up from October’s figure of 17.40%.
Why are more people fixing their mortgage?
Mortgage Choice CEO John Flavell says there has been increased speculation of a rate hike in the near future.
“I think a growing percentage of borrowers realise that rates may soon rise and, in a bid to beat rising rates, more borrowers are starting to fix their mortgages,” he said.
Some major banks are reportedly thinking of raising their interest rates in the lead up to Christmas. #9Finance https://t.co/4rnaJ22qq3

“Moving forward, I will not be surprised to see a growing proportion of borrowers look to fix their mortgage in a bid to beat potential rate rises.”
Are home loan interest rates rising?
Mr Flavell also said he strongly believes the bottom of the rate cycle has passed, and we can expect to see lenders start raising the interest rates across all of their home loan products.
“Long term bond rates have started to move slightly higher in recent weeks, and we have already seen increases in some of the fixed rates on offer domestically,” he said.
He adds that we should not expect the Reserve Bank to lower the official cash rate (which affects our home loan interest rates) any further.
“Central Banks around the globe are now signalling that the bias for easing monetary policy is over. Closer to home, the Reserve Bank of Australia strongly suggested during its November Board meeting that the time for easing monetary policy has now passed.”

“That said, even if rates do rise in the near future, it is important for borrowers not to panic. The reality is, interest rates are incredibly low by long term standards and they will continue to remain low for the foreseeable future.”
Fixed Rate Decreases
Another reason not to panic is the fact that a number of lenders have actually gone against the trend by decreasing rates on their fixed rate mortgages over the last month.
