Should I move? See what changes if you sell and buy another home
Sell your current home and buy another, and we'll show you the bits that actually decide it:
- The cash you need up front to complete the move.
- How your monthly repayment changes.
- How the two paths compare over the long run.
Every figure is editable — general information only, not financial, credit or tax advice, and not a forecast.
Example — Cash to find up front (new loan)
Example figures — edit below to make them yours$725,000
That's the answer for the example numbers below — not yours yet. Fill in your current home, the one you're buying, and your funding, and we'll show the cash you'd need up front and how your monthly repayment changes. Every figure is an estimate you can change.
Rates default to a typical estimate (the RBA cash rate + 2%), and stamp duty comes from the state's standard scale — not your actual lender or settlement figures. Pop your own numbers in below for a sharper answer.
What this includes
- The sale costs, purchase costs and stamp duty you entered
- The new loan implied by your cash contribution
- A pre-tax 30-year property + cash projection (under “explore further”)
What it doesn't include
- Tax (capital gains tax is never calculated here)
- Lender approval, and any rate or cost changes
