Property Expert Joe Wilkes and I discuss the issues arising from falling home prices, and Joe walks through the latest Auckland data. As prices continue to fall, “a bargain” simply does not exist!

– In 2019, 2020 and 2021 A LOT OF australian mortgages will reset from “Interest Only” (IO) to “Principal & Interest” (P&I). I think that this is the main reason why australian households are forced to sell their house & especially their investment property/properties. And some 50% of those sales seem to have been done at a loss.
– Banks in New Zealand (NZ) also have issued those “Interest Only” mortgages in recent years. If I remember correctly (source: Mr. Wilkes ???) some 25% of those mortgages in NZ are/were IO mortgages.
Question:
– Does Mr. Wilkes have data on how much of those IO mortgages in NZ are going through such a reset (from IO to P&I) this year and in the next say 2 to 3 years ? Perhaps he is able to reply to this question in the next video ?

– If you want to know where those Auckland neighbourhoods are that were mentioned by Mr. Joe Wilkes then look at GOOGLE maps.
– Banks in NZ are lending (some) 20% less ? O.M.G. that means that in NZ the “Credit Impulse” is receding as well (like in Australia).
– Question: In the previous video with mr. Joe Wilkes (when he looked around in Pokeno) he mentioned that the NZ (/ Auckland ??) property market(s) peaked in 2015. Based on what data/metric(s) did he base that statement ? Because I thought the NZ property market(s) peaked in say mid 2018.
