Give Will a buzz or email, you won't regret it! 💚

Interest rates have risen again in Australia, and some lenders are already passing the increase on to variable-rate home loans. AMP Bank, for example, lifted its variable home loan rates by 0.25 percentage points from 5 October 2026.

So, what could this mean for your household?

Your mortgage: Check how your repayments may change and when any new rate takes effect.

Your household budget: Review your regular expenses and allow for changes to your repayments.

Your financial priorities: Consider how your mortgage fits alongside emergency savings, super contributions, insurance and other goals.

You don't necessarily need to make big changes in response to a headline. Start by looking at how the news affects your own circumstances.

At Wisely Finance, we believe financial advice should help you see the bigger picture, understand your options and make informed decisions.

Vintage time. 1998.
The Sexton brothers; Geoff, Bill and Peter purchased the old shops in late 1994.
In 1995/6 - big improvements started. 😍
Lots of love went in to repaint, repair and turn the old flat in to 3 lovely retail spaces. The timber floors polished, new big glass panels and a paved garden courtyard.
Karen Sexton took on the semi derelict Corner Store. Revamped it in to Hillsdon Convenience & Coffee.
Offering groceries, fresh produce, an international Deli range, Cafe offerings cakes, sandwiches, salads and right beside the checkout a proper espresso machine! Quite rare in the burbs back then. 😄
All with inside and courtyard seating.
Hours were 7am till 8pm - every day. A popular stop for a coffee and snack for local Police and shift workers 😁

Come work at this fabulous little corner of good voffee, good food and good vibes! 😁
