Investors remain confident in property

In the 2017 ANZ Property Investment Survey, which was released today, 47% of investors said that the limits on LVR lending have significantly impacted on their strategy in the last 12 months.

This is a significant increase on previous years: In 2016, 31% of investors were feeling the impact and in 2015 just 16% were.

LVRs are the biggest regulatory concerns for investors and government regulations are the second biggest concern for investors in 2017.

However, damage to property was the top concern, with meth contamination being the single biggest concern for investors.
