It depends on your balance and current rate, but as a guide, a 0.50% rate cut on a $600,000 loan saves about $181 a month, roughly $2,175 a year. With Hamilton property values where they are, many owners also unlock equity at the same time. John runs your exact numbers for free.

Do you handle cash-out refinances in Hamilton?

Yes. If your Hamilton property has grown in value, a cash-out refinance can release equity for renovations, investing or consolidating debt, subject to lender assessment. John settled several large cash-out refinances across Sydney in 2026 and publishes anonymised examples on the settled deals page.

What is the home loan loyalty tax?

It is the gap between the discounted rates lenders advertise to new borrowers and the higher back-book rates existing customers quietly drift onto. The longer you stay, the wider it tends to get. Refinancing, or the credible threat of it, is how borrowers claw that margin back.
