    This line regarding leichhardt caught my eye as the total number has doubled. Speaks to recent changes in serviceability! Are there really that many people who have been affected by recent slight rise in rates due to macroprudential tightening!?! . . .

    This data (which forms) pricing for RMBS securities is closely followed by credit analysts and interest rate strategists . . .

    Leichhardt data result caught my as did QLD where missed repayments are on the up.

    One of the few weaker performing suburbs in NSW was Leichardt in Sydney's Inner West in which arrears had doubled from 1.03 per cent to 2.12 per cent, ranking it the seventh worst performing post code in the state.

    Is the repport backed by an increase in any repossessions in the area?

    This will become more common once interest rates rise back to historical levels. Anyone that has purchased in the last couple of years has taken on huge amounts of debt and are relying on low rates + pay increases to ride out the storm (myself included).

    No haven't been able to locate repossession data to correlate.

    Should know more in coming months.

    I'd say residential properties are also at historical highs.

    Delinquencies are extraordinarily low in NSW & VIC, they can practically only go up from here.

    On the other hand look at WA & NT go.

    Crazy how inner city Sydney delinquencies are rising in such a strong employment market.

    As you say, only way is up.
