Consistent with data from other sources, bank willingness to lend is seen by investors to be improving.
Net plans for purchasing more investment property have fallen away this month.
Of those planning a purchase, interest in a new build has declined, driven perhaps by concerns about developer ability to deliver amidst many resourcing problems.
