Summary The Australian property market is covered in respect to the influences on prices, and the affordability crisis. Several changes in lending policy, borrowing capacity calculators and living expense assessment are discussed in great detail, ultimately helping a borrower be more prepared and confident in applying for a mortgage. One of the biggest mistakes a borrower can make is going directly to a bank or lender, rather than using a broker to explore all the different options for them first, maximizing the applicants borrowing capacity, simplifying the application process and dealing with issues and hurdles that often arise when applying for finance. Emerging influences on the ability for someone to get a loan are introduced as these will continue to have a growing impact on the finance industry, such as positive credit reporting, responsible lending, and regulatory pressure.
