Tony Alexander: Independent economist says tightening of home lending rules has stripped away first home buyers ability to get into the mark

Things aren't looking any rosier for people trying to get on the property ladder. A new CoreLogic report suggests the property market has moved past its peak growth rate. However, independent economist Tony Alexander told Tim Dower that won't help first home buyers. He says the tightening of home lending rules has stripped away their ability to get into the market. “It’s been a heck of a last 12 months should we say, for first home buyers – and at the moment, it’s not that flash for them.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
