Show Notes
After years of record lows there is speculation that 2022 could be the year when the Reserve Bank of Australia will finally increase interest rates, but would it be enough to drive down house prices?
Research shows that even a modest 1% increase could prove devastating for new home owners who've been pushed into huge mortgages, but at the same time many retirees are desperate for a rise to finally see some return on their savings.
To find out who would benefit and who would suffer, and how likely any of this really is, The Quicky speaks to an economic expert to discuss what is really going on with interest rates in Australia.
