Dear Garth,
I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to you & your team for all

property back in 2004 and again wanted the assurance of a professional
& seamless transition of sale - you certainly when above &
beyond my expectations again this time Garth!
I look forward to dealing with you again in a month or two with the
purchase of another property.

"WHAT
DO INTEREST RATES DO?"
The Herald Sun – Monday 14th September 2009
High interest rates suck up spare money sitting around that people
might be tempted to spend.
Low interest rates mean households have spare money to spend because
they are paying less to make their debt repayments.
When people spend a lot, prices increase, inflation goes up.
When people don’t have the money to spend, prices and inflation
go down or at least stay steady.
Who sets these interest rates?
Each night all banks must balance their books. However it is impossible
to physically get all the cash back into the vault each night so they
borrow the shortfall from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA)
In turn the RBA charges the Banks a cash interest rate for lending
them the money overnight.
So the RBA sets the official or cash rate that it charges all the
other banks and that is why the rate gets passed on to everyone, through
the system.
The RBA sets the interest rates – but recently Banks have started
to charge more interest than what the RBA set; because they are borrowing
from other sources than the RBA.
Who benefits from high interest rates?
Means a higher return for saving Deposits particularly self funded
retirees; greater incentives for people to save; push up the value
of our Currency the Australian Dollar – overseas investors will
buy aussie dollars because of the higher returns on savings with our
Banks.
Tips to cope with an interest rate
rise
1. Prepare your household for a least a 2% rise in interest rates
2. Pay off or redraw from your home loan to pay off credit cards and
personal loans (these have higher interest rates)
3. Shop around for better Mortgage deals - beware of exit fees and
penalties for switching
4. Review household budgets – identify areas of excess and reduce
5. Be cautious about fixing home loan rates
