A significant drop in interest rates late last year resulted in a surge of new home loan applications and refinancing and restructuring requests, according to mortgage brokers.

Mortgage rates are continuing to fall, but it isn't getting any easier for many people to access bank loans. Latest figures from interest.co.nz show one-year mortgage rates have fallen to around 6.33%, down from about 7.35% in January. But banks have told our newsroom they're still testing applicants at between 8.5 and 8.7%. Loan Market Mortgage Advisor Bruce Patten told Mike Hosking that banks are being overly cautious at the moment. He said that it won't be until inflation rates get back to normal that they'll ease off on the caution. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Last Tranche, Joe Rotondo, senior portfolio manager on the credit investments team at MidOcean Partners, looks back on a turbulent year for the leveraged loan asset class.Rotondo discusses the key trends and moments that influenced the loan market through the last 12 months through to the present day, from the general bullishness at the start of the year, to the downturn over the summer and the slowdown in new issue supply. He identifies the key lessons the market can take from the events of the year, and looks at both the headwinds and tailwinds in place for loan investors looking into 2023.#CLO, #leveragedloan, #MidOcean
House prices have fallen by an average of $90,000 in parts of New Zealand after a turbulent year in the property market. That meant homeowners who bought at the height of the property boom in late 2021 could find themselves with mortgages larger than the value of their home, especially in Auckland and Wellington. But there were also some positives: the fall in prices was allowing more first-home buyers onto the property ladder. The OneRoof Property Report for 2022, published today, captured the huge market shift during the year and highlighted some risks on the horizon for homeowners. The housing market went from “fear of missing out” to “fear of overpaying”, Oneroof editor Owen Vaughan said, as a boom which started during Covid gave way to falling prices, tighter lending and uncertainty about the year ahead. Nationwide, the average property value fell by 8.15 per cent, or nearly $90,000, since a high of $1.1m at the end of February. Values fell in every region except the West Coast. Homeowners in Wellington and Auckland were worst affected. The average property value fell 17.7 per cent ($201,818) in the Greater Wellington region since prices peaked in March, with some central suburbs taking a price hit of more than $400,000. This was largely because of the withdrawal of Auckland investors who had driven much of the inflation since the Covid-19 pandemic. In Auckland, average property values fell 12 per cent (more than $180,000) since the peak. James Wilson, head of valuations at Valocity, said the fall in prices in 2022 was the largest since 2010, but had to be seen in context: the boom since Covid was one of the strongest New Zealand had ever experienced, with average growth of 33 per cent nationwide between early 2020 and early 2022. While the fall in prices may make the market more affordable for some, it raises concerns about negative equity for those who bought at the market's peak. “The data shows that the homeowners who purchased in late 2021 and early 2022 are more likely to be in negative equity position now,” Wilson said. “Investors, those with more than two properties, are likely to be less exposed as a result of the 40 per cent deposit requirements for investment properties.” Nicki Cruickshank, the principal of Tommy's real estate in Wellington, said prices went higher than expected in 2021 so the drop this year was to be expected - but she had not expected the turnaround to be so sudden. “But in the big picture most people own houses for 10 years-plus so overall they've still done well.” Sanjeev Jangra, a Loan Market mortgage adviser who works in Auckland's south, said interest rate hikes took people by surprise, especially last year's borrowers who were not expecting them to go so high so fast. There had been some positives for those wanting to get into the market. Jangra noted a switch in his client base from 40-50 per cent investors to around 80 per cent first-home buyers. Investors did not have enough equity after prices fell 15-20 per cent, he said. Looking ahead to 2023, Wilson said he expected property values were likely to keep falling but at a slower rate. A range of factors would have an impact on the market, including reduced sales activity, the election, and the Reserve Bank's inflation battle. “Inflation is the elephant in the room and won't disappear overnight. But while cost of living pressures are reaching across nearly all parts of our daily lives, we're actually not seeing a significant drop in spending and that's probably because a lot of people still haven't had to fix their mortgage at a higher rate,” Wilson said. “When that happens and those mortgage rates begin to really bite, then spending is likely to dry up. Obviously, that has bigger economic impacts but the key question is: will inflation be tamed by traditional policy or will a hard, economic landing do the job? At this point, a lot of signs point to a harder landing than would be ideal.” Highs and lows Steepest fall from market peak (region): Greater Wellington - down 17.68% ($201,818) from market peak of $1.14m Steepest fall from market peak (suburb): Waterloo, in Lower Hutt - down 23.9% ($279,200) from market peak of $1.168m Highest average property value: Herne Bay, in Auckland - $3.816m (down 2.3%, $91,000, on the previous year) Lowest average property value: Ohai, in Southland - $158,000 (up 28.5%, $35,000, on the previous year) Highest 12-month value change: Glenorchy, in Queenstown-Lakes - up 28.9% to $1.446m Lowest 12-month value change: Waiwhetu, in Lower Hutt - down 19.7% to $783,000 Highest five-year value change: Raetihi, in Ruapehu - up 212.3% to $406,000 Lowest five-year value change: Auckland Central, in Auckland - up 0.3% to $612,000 *Current to the end of October 2022 Top settled sale: Paritai Drive, in Orakei, Auckland.

Pressure is increasing on mortgage holders due to economic turmoil. Interest rates are continuing to rise and the Reserve Bank is predicting a recession for next year. Loan Market mortgage adviser Paulette Trotter spoke to Corin Dann.
Gretchen Lam, senior portfolio manager, Octagon Credit Investors -- sub-adviser on the XAI Octagon Floating Rate & Alternative Income Term Trust -- says that while economic conditions are challenging and that a recession will be bad for the credit markets, collateralized loan obligations and other loan products have held up relatively well during the current period of rising rates. They haven't been able to avoid the downdraft, she says, but they have outperformed other forms of credit, maintaining a historical pattern of superiority in tough conditions. Coupled with low default levels -- which she expects to rise a minimal amount despite higher interest rates -- it creates an opportunity for credit investors now.
Some homeowners are feeling a heavy strain as a result of interest rate hikes, with the Official Cash Rate lifted a further 50-basis points yesterday, to 3.5 percent. The hike was expected, and is the eighth straight increase in the OCR. Loan Market director Bruce Patten says some home owners, or soon to be home owners, are facing a year of pain due to the hikes. He also says the uncertainty is making matters worse. Patten spoke to Corin Dann.
