Interest rate would be 0.25/4.2x100 = 6% higher.

6% is not insignificant.

100 basic point is 1%, this is jargon using in banking/finance section.

Bank Negara increase OPR, can I increase rental to my tenant?

You can always try to increase once contract finished.
The question is, will your tenant stay?

0.25% rise is unlikely to have any impact on property market, bnm should have increased by 0.50%

Every increase has an impact.
With higher interest rate people can borrow less from the bank which will have a negative effect on property prices.
