    Hi Gents & Ladies,

    I am going for a Job interview tomorrow (got caught out at short notice), and as part of the role I am applying for, will need to have a strong grasp on the property market.

    I would like to ask the PC community the following question :

    What are the changes in the industry in the last 12 months & coming 12 months that would affect the mortgages industry in Australia?

    A one sentence response would be fine, I just need to make sure I've got everything covered.

    Thanks!

    Lol one sentence to cover everything?

    Ok let me try: investors can all go to hell.

    Predicting this is going to be a fun thread.

    There's no way I can surmise this in a single sentence, a 10,000 word essay might might come close.

    Stricter and harsher rules reducing the ability to borrow. Plus quotas limiting business development.

    You didn't specify PPOR or IP's, residential or industrial, new builds or existing... so...

    "huge residential property investment changes, looming demographic shifts, low consumer confidence and income increases, political inertia and unknowns, and increasing separation between Sydney+Melbourne and the rest of the country, means an uncomfortable and confused property market; same again and possibly worsening."

    If the scope had to be narrowed it would be P&I Residential loans. :)
