Investor credit elevated no longer
Total housing credit is now just over $1.8 trillion, according to the latest Reserve Bank figures.
The investor share of that credit has declined sharply from 39 per cent to 33 per cent since 2015.
Smoothed on a 3mMA basis, you can see that the investor share of housing credit now sits well below the average for the past decade-and-a-half.
The Reserve Bank figures showed a cumulative $73.7 billion of net switching of loan purpose since 2015 from investor to owner-occupier, which accelerated the rebalancing.

CoreLogic will release its December report at 10am AEDT, which should make for some interesting reading.
