What value of home loans are being refinanced each month in Australia? The ABS’s lending indicators data showcases the monthly value of external home loan refinancing (i.e. loans moved from one lender to another) for owner occupiers and investors. Since the last RBA rate cut in November 2020, the value of owner occupier refinancing has more than doubled.
