The value of owner-occupier refinancing between lenders rose 9.1 per cent to a new high of $13.4 billion in November (seasonally adjusted), while total new loan commitments for housing fell 3.7 per cent, according to data released today by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
Dane Mead, acting ABS head of Finance and Wealth, said: “More borrowers switched lenders for lower interest rates as the RBA’s cash rate target continued to rise.”

New owner-occupier loan commitments fell 3.8 per cent in November, while new investor loan commitments fell 3.6 per cent.
“The number of owner-occupier dwelling commitments also continued to fall in November to below the pre-pandemic level for the first time,” Mr Mead said.

Personal finance
The value of total new loan commitments for fixed term personal finance fell 1.3 per cent in November 2022. This was driven by a 9.3 per cent fall in lending for personal investment. Lending for the purchase of road vehicles fell 2.9 per cent.
In smaller personal finance series, there was a 5.1 per cent rise in lending for the purchase of household goods to a new all-time high, while lending for travel & holidays remained slightly higher than pre-pandemic levels. This was consistent with the Monthly Household Spending Indicator as well as Retail Trade results for November 2022.
More information is available in Lending Indicators, Australia.
