Historical interest rate cut is good news for buyers and sellers

You are most likely aware by now that the official interest rate has a zero in front of it for the first time ever.  

The Reserve Bank of Australia cut the cash rate to a new record low of 0.75% on Tuesday – the third cut in five months.  

Experts believe the cut is aimed at stimulating the economy, creating more jobs, increasing inflation and boosting household spending – but the side effect will be an explosive rebound in house prices.  

History shows that most banks do not pass on the full cut, with borrowers likely to receive a cut of between 0.15 per cent and 0.20 per cent.  

This is a great time to consider buying or selling property. For buyers, it can be easier to obtain a loan, and you borrow at a low rate.  

For sellers, interest rate cuts tend to generate buyer demand, possibly leading to higher sale prices.   

Please contact us if you would like to take advantage of the interest cut by either selling or buying property.

Glen did a great job with handing all aspects of my sale. I chose him because of his and his agency's long history, contacts and knowledge of the area and he did not disappoint with a comprehensive marketing strategy pulling in and negotiating with a large number of interested buyers. Would recommend.

Jo has a fantastic knowledge of the market and was a huge asset in the sale of our property at Aanuka Beach Resort. She ensured that it was a very smooth sale and she was always quick to respond when I had questions. Many thanks Jo!

I would not hesitate in recommending Glen for selling or buying a home. Glen is an excellent communicator, has strong local market knowledge and achieved an excellent price for our house.

We had a remarkably smooth sale through Ray's Real Estate with Glen. Glen was very efficient and negotiated a new record price for us in super fast time. In tune with today, everything was done via email or phone. This was the easiest sale I have negotiated, of which, I have done many in Australia

Glen and team did a fantastic job selling our investment property in Kingscliff. Despite the challenges posed by lockdown in the Tweed, he managed to get an outstanding price for the property. His knowledge of the local market and great negotiation style were key to achieving this. Highly recommended!

Glen has been extremely helpful throughout our purchase process, especially considering we were buying from interstate. He's been very accommodating, quick to respond to questions and very easy to deal with.
