Why "Back to the Future" Is the Perfect 80s Movie for Refinancing
Arguably the greatest movie franchise ever made.
To say I love this film is an understatement. I even went as far as to have a full Back to the Future Delorean for my wedding car, travelling to the venue like a celebrity with everyone taking photos as we drove.
For those that don’t know the movie, in Back to the Future Marty McFly and Doc Brown use clever thinking, precise planning, and a little flux-capacitor-fuelled magic to turn the tides of time. They travel to the past and have to get Back to the Future before destroying the timeline of the McFly family.
Similarly, refinancing your mortgage can feel like tweaking the dials on your financial timeline - lowering rates, changing loan terms, and redirecting funds toward a better financial future.
Here are the parallels:
- Timing matters: Just like Marty needed to hit 88 mph at precisely the right moment, timing a refinance - restructuring your home loan when rates are favourable - can lead to significant savings.
- Smart adjustments: Whether it's swapping a variable rate for a fixed one, or shortening the loan term, refinancing lets you "rewire" your mortgage like the DeLorean.
- Accessing resources: Cash-out refinancing is like tapping into hidden power - unlocking equity for home improvements or consolidation, much like finding the key to time travel.

“Back to the Future”-Inspired Refinance Script
Scene: Your Home, Present Day
You (looking at mortgage statements): “Uh… Doc? It’s your kid. Back in time, you saved me with that lightning strike. Can you help me save on my mortgage too?”
TTO Broker (in a white coat, slightly eccentric): “Great Scott! If you’re stuck with a high interest rate, we can open up a whole new timeline of financial freedom.”
Scene: The Financial DeLorean - TTO in Action
- Step on the gas: TTO reviews your current loan and runs comparisons across 60+ lenders.
- Set the target: Fix that variable rate, lower monthly repayments, or access equity - whatever sparks your plan.
- Hit 88 mph: Once everything aligns, you "time travel" to your new loan - starting fresh, with better terms and clarity.
Why This Works (and Why You Should Refinance Now)
Interest rates fluctuate, and loyalty doesn’t always pay - banks often reward new borrowers more than existing ones.
Refinancing can save thousands a year - clients have seen annual interest savings in the thousands on both home and investment loans.
A mortgage broker-led refinance helps ensure your loan is structured strategically, considering variables like fixed vs variable rates and tax efficiency.
Final Scene: Your Financial Future - A Better Timeline Awaits
By partnering with TTO Finance, you’re not just refinancing - you’re stepping into a smarter timeline where your mortgage works better for you. And, unlike dodging lightning bolts, this kind of "time travel" can be far more predictable - and rewarding.
