NZ c.Bank cut rate 0.5%, banks pass it all to mortgages rates

This morning the central bank of NZ cut the bank lending rate by 0.5% to 7.5%. That was after a cut of 0.25% in july.
The good news is the banks are passing it all to mortgage holders.
It is a good sign for Australian home owner as Australian banks would likely do the same for future cuts.
Today also new data of unemployment in August going down to 4.1% from 4.3% in july, it is much better then expected(from ABS)
I guess these are all good news for property owner that can squeeze out more rent from more workers and more buyer might join the property market.
