A significant contributor to this surge is the heightened activity among property investors. The value of new investor loans rose by $7.7 billion from the previous quarter, reaching a record high of $71.7 billion. This represents a 24% increase compared to the same period last year, indicating a robust confidence in the property market among investors.
Owner-occupier loans also saw growth, albeit more modestly. The value of new loans for owner-occupiers increased by $646 million, bringing the total to $119.6 billion for the quarter.
These figures underscore the dynamic nature of Australia's housing market, with both investors and owner-occupiers actively participating. Prospective buyers and current homeowners should stay informed about market trends and consider seeking professional advice to navigate this evolving landscape.
