Bonus: Unlocking What the Rate Rise Means for First Home Buyers

In early February 2026, there was an interest rate rise announced by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). Jack Elliott and Chris Bates talk through what this actually means for first home buyers and how to respond without feeling rushed or pressured. We break down the practical impact of a rate rise on both monthly repayments and borrowing capacity, and share real examples so you can understand what this looks like in your situation. Most importantly, we talk about what you can control right now.
