Chasing a low interest rate should be on the radar for homeowners and buyers as rates drop even lower to rock bottom figures.<\/p>\n

The property market just got another boost with the lowest home loan rate in the market dropping to 1.69 per cent.<\/p>\n

Lender Greater Bank announced the new market-leading rate of 1.69 per cent on Tuesday following a cut of 0.2 per cent to its one-year fixed rate for owner occupiers paying principal and interest.<\/p>\n

With fixed rates continuing to lead the market with low rates, now could be an opportunity for mortgage holders to fix all or at least part of their loan.<\/p>\n

Canstar\u2019s editor-at-large and money expert Effie Zahos says chasing a low rate should be on every homeowners\u2019 radar.<\/p>\n
