What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Finder released a study on home ownership rates, led by James Graham and researchers from the University of Sydney School of Economics. The research indicates that a standard increase of 0.25 percentage points in interest rates leads to an immediate 5 per cent decline in home purchases. This subdued buying trend can persist for up to two years following a rate rise. The study found that younger households with less income were disproportionately impacted by these interest rate hikes.
