The Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) says the latest housing figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) show that, except for first home buyers, there is a developing trend of increasing housing finance commitments.
Housing finance figures for April 2013 show, in trend terms, that the number of owner-occupied finance commitments rose by 1.4 per cent – on top of the 1.4 per cent total increase for the first three months of 2013.
