"Property gains popularity as preferred place to park money"

Hi Property Lovers

I came across this article on Australian Property Investor that I thought had some good information:

In the face of an uncertain economy, real estate is becoming an increasingly attractive place to park savings, according to The Westpac/Melbourne Institute's Index of Consumer Sentiment for June.

The Index of Consumer Sentiment reveals that property investment now runs a close second (21.7 per cent of respondents) to bank account deposits (29.2 per cent of respondents) for consumers, a shift from three months ago when paying down debt was more desirable to consumers than bricks and mortar.

Banks are currently the number one preferred place to park money, possibly due to the attractive term deposit rates on offer, said CommSec economist Savanth Sebastian.

He said the popularity gain of property investment is most likely due to the strength in property prices, falling unemployment and a growing population.

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) housing finance figures for April, property investor numbers continue to gain momentum while owner-occupier numbers retreat a little further.

"The rate hikes have resulted in the demand for housing sliding (though from a very high base) however it would seem the stock of housing or new listings seem to be falling at a faster pace, a result that would justify the strength in house prices," said Sebastian.

"However there are early signs that property prices are consolidating, and CommSec expects this trend to gain traction, with the lift in housing supply coming through the pipeline over coming months," he said.

As the ABS new home loan owner-occupier figures for April revealed a 1.8 per cent slide, equal to a nine-year low, investor loans recorded a consistent upward track over the past nine months and a 26 per cent increase on its figure 12 months ago.

However, both investors and owner-occupiers are borrowing more, with ABS figures revealing an increase for the second month, with owner-occupier loan values up by 0.6 per cent and investor loan values up by 1.3 per cent.

"Official cash rate remains unmoved"

Hi Property Lovers

Good news for home buyers......

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has today decided not to move the official cash rate from 4.5 per cent due to concern about sovereign creditworthiness in several European markets.

The RBA said the decision not to budge the official cash rate was also to relieve homeowners in the likelihood of inflation reaching upper levels over the next 12 months.

It's a good time for investors to reassess their situation for the next six months when a rate rise does happen, said Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia chief executive officer Phil Naylor.

"Increasing mortgage repayments coupled with rising fuel and food costs means balancing the household budget can be very challenging," said Naylor. "Homeowners should evaluate opportunities to save money within the parameters of their home loan contracts."

Naylor emphasised the importance of flexibility, and to compare home loans and not only rates.
Mortgage Choice senior corporate affairs manager Kristy Sheppard said that regardless of the RBA decision, the official interest rate has little impact on mortgage rates these days anyway.

"The focus should be on whether lending institutions move rates outside the RBA cycle, as they have indicated is a possibility due to the continued volatility in their cost of the funds," she said.

"Borrowers of all types are most probably happy with the June cash rate decision, which is terrific, but our advice is to watch your lender to check your debt repayments are not increased regardless."
