Imagine if you had borrowed to buy a property worth $500,000 AUD in USD when the AU:USD was 98c. You would have borrowed $490,000 USD.
Today, that same loan in USD will cost you $676,200 AUD to repay. a month ago much worse.
Is getting a cheaper interest rate worth the risk of currency fluctuations? Well yes and no I guess a lot of people thought so until the Yen carry trade began to unwind
