Australians Prefer To Investment Over Upgrades
Maybe something good has come out of the GFC, it appears people are thinking twice about refinancing their home to put on that extension or remodel the kitchen.
Instead statistics are showing that mortgages have swung in favour of people wanting to purchase investment property.
With the winding back of the First Home Owners Grant Scheme and three successive interest rate rises, AFG, Australia’s largest mortgage broker has seen a drop in the number of people financing to either buy their own home or refinancing to improve it.
Whilst the property market on the face of it is continuing to climb and sales are increasing brokers are acutely aware that the market is still a little hesitant following the GFC that dominated the 2009 agenda.
The January figures show that property investors as a proportion of mortgages written continue to hold steady making up 33.7% of all mortgages written the January period.

This economic activity has encouraged Portfolios diversification into property sourcing for our clients as the property investment market not only remains strong but continues to grow.
