NSW borrowers refinanced about $24.1bn of home loans to a new lender in the latest quarter (2026 Q2), based on ABS Lending Indicators. That is about 34.8% of all external refinancing across Australia, ranking New South Wales 1st of 8 states and territories. People refinance when their current rate drifts above the current market and there is a genuine saving to be had.
The sharpest owner-occupier variable rate we track nationally is about 5.84%, against an average of about 6.17%. Home loan rates in Australia are set nationally rather than by state, so a NSW borrower and a borrower interstate see the same lender rates. Your actual rate depends on your loan size, your equity and your lender. These are advertised rates, not comparison rates, and a comparison rate reflects fees. Indicative only, not credit advice.
