Minus the developer loans. So loans made to home purchasers rather than home builders.
But I think you know that.
You know I might just see if I can dig out what the Irish banking sectors mortgage book was in 05 or 06 to do a quick compare and contrast.

Goodwin's law - this is an admission that you have lost the argument, and you've got nothing left but ad-hom attacks and Nazi references.
Ah so he can call me names but I cant reciprocate.
That sounds fair.
Edit: and yeah, I've pretty much said what I wanted to say. Arch propagandist Goebbels was looking to discredit me by twisting what I was saying. That's cool, that's what he is for after all.
And when all is said and done the Moody's report remain in play, reminding everyone just how large the property finance construct in Australia actually is.
Property acquisition as a topic was almost a national obsession. You couldn't even call it speculation as the buyers all presumed the price of property could only go up. That’s why we use the word obsession. Ordinary people were buying properties for their young children who had not even left school assuming they would not be able to afford property of their own when they left college- Klaus Regling on Ireland. Sound familiar?
The evidence of nearly 40 cycles in house prices for 17 OECD economies since 1970 shows that real house prices typically give up about 70 per cent of their rise in the subsequent fall, and that these falls occur slowly. Morgan Kelly:On the Likely Extent of Falls in Irish House Prices, 2007
Quite the opposite. It's your own you-tube derived misunderstanding of interest which leads you to consider interest only as a charge to the borrower and for you to ignore the interest credit to the receiver of the interest. Double accounting confirms my statements and destroys your own.
It is a function of the RBA to maintain a stable banking system, and if need be the RBA will lend to any bank to overcome a short term liquidity problem. This is not a new idea, it's largely why central banks came into existence.
And they are doing the best they can.
But we would do well to remember that many of the countries that started down the path we did with residential property lending since the 1990s have since suffered because of it.
These are the facts.
lending to workers for housing and other consumer items started in earnest about 100 years ago.
The question is should buyers be limited by availability of credit or willingness to pay. Almost everyone chooses to limit credit but they never think that it may be them who will be refused a loan.
Any expressed market opinion is my own and is not to be taken as financial advice
Goodwin's law! This is an open admission that you have lost the argument, and you've got nothing left but ad-hom attacks and Nazi references.
Sounding like a scared and confused little bull there stupidite
After a bubble has burst, no one denies that it existed. But before it does, the popular refrain is that though bubbles existed elsewhere in the world, “there’s no bubble here”. So housing bubbles are admitted to have existed in Japan, the USA, Spain and Ireland – because they’ve already burst.
Sounding like a pimply uneducated teenager there Timo!
You seem to take being pathetic quite seriously....you've evidently perfected the art

In other words, the money supply never expands, is that what you are saying? Every credit matches every debit? There is the same amount of money now as there was 100 years ago?

Greenwald's law! Godwin's law is only a statement of probability. Valid comparisons to Nazis and Hitler can be discredited by invoking Godwin's law, serving to shut down debate.
Hypothetical: Some modern state rounds up Jewish people, puts them in concentration camps where they die in large numbers. Hypothetical country name Godwinia.
Poster1: The government of Godwinia are just like the Nazis! Sydneyite: Godwins law! You mentioned the Nazis so you basically admit you have lost the argument! The good people of Godwinia are therefore nothing like the Nazis! Poster1: F^ck you asshole.
Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
