High mortgage debt a danger in a downturn: house prices
It's good night Irene! MS is concerned the ratio of average house prices to average incomes has risen too far: that ratio increased along a steady path between 1960 and 2000, taking it from 180 per cent to 300 per cent. It's since jumped to 500 per cent, with the result that average house prices are now about 35 per cent above their long-term trend. MS adds: "Much of the discussion on the residential market concentrates on owner-occupiers. But property owners represent a significantly larger risk if they become widespread sellers of their loss-making investments."

Master Builders show fall
Latest building approvals cast doubt on residential building upturn, commercial building weakens as stimulus fades 03 Aug 2010 Another fall in dwelling approvals in June is further evidence of a faltering residential building upturn, and notwithstanding a monthly rise, there has been a big decline in non-residential building approvals as the boost from the Government’s economic stimulus ends, according to Master Builders Australia, the peak body for the building and construction industry. Mr Peter Jones, Chief Economist, said “The good news is that a recovery in approvals of units and apartments may be gaining momentum as investor-driven activity finally begins to shake off lingering effects of the credit squeeze.” He said, “The bad news is that total dwelling approvals are running at an annualised rate of around 160,000, forty per cent below what is required to make inroads into Australia’s massive supply shortage.” “Government programs like the BER prevented a total collapse in commercial or non-residential building activity, but the spike in approvals has now reversed, shrinking to around $20 billion in annualised terms, a decline in the order of 40 per cent from levels achieved in 2008.” “Private sector commercial building activity remains weak, and Master Builders’ recent national survey reveals that the industry is becoming increasingly concerned about prospects.” He said “A period of interest rate stability from the Reserve Bank is critical, not only to ensure a sustainable upswing in residential building, but in order to safeguard against any further ratchet down in non-residential building activity.” • The total number of dwelling units approved, seasonally adjusted, fell by 3.3 per cent to 13,267 in June, to be up by 13.2. per cent on the same month in the previous year. • Private sector house approvals fell by 2.5 per cent to 8,620 to be up 0.5 per cent on the same month last year. • The more volatile private sector ‘other dwellings’ (apartments and townhouses), rose by 2.7 per cent in June to be up 57.6 per cent on June 2009. • The value of non-residential building approvals, seasonally adjusted, rose by 4.4 per cent in June to be 39.8 per cent down on June 2009.
