The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Opportunity

At Lumby Real Estate, with the recent announcement of the Reserve Bank trimming the cash rate by 0.25%, bringing it down to 3.85%—the lowest since May 2023. This welcomed move is expected to provide relief to homeowners and enhance affordability for buyers by increasing their borrowing capacity.

However, economists warn that this could also drive property prices up by 10% by year-end, urging buyers to act swiftly. Whilst further cuts expected over the coming months, create cheaper money for housing, they also fuel demand.
