Meet Mette

Mette, 78, lives in Robina, a vibrant suburb on the Gold Coast of Queensland. Originally from Norway, her love for Australia has grown over the years and when she discovered the friendly community of Robina, she knew she had found her forever home. Not only has she made close friends, there’s a sense of freedom and safety in Robina that she doesn’t want to give up – especially in retirement.

Mette has been able to use her home equity – what we like to call her Household Capital– to modify her bathrooms, garage and roof, and take her day-to-day comfort to the next level. She knows that if there are any renovations or purchases she wants to make, she has the retirement funds to make them comfortably.“

The freedom that I feel with Household Capital is that if I want to do something, "I just do it,” she says.

"I can just ring you up and say, "I need some money" and the money is in the bank.”
