With the bank forecasting house price falls of up to 15 per cent, Mr Hand was asked if this meant ANZ would limit loan-to-valuation ratios (LVRs) in Melbourne.
Mr Hand responded that the 15 per cent fall forecast was a “worst case scenario” but it would impose LVR limits on some postcodes, and there were parts of the country where it would not lend more than 80 per cent of a property’s sale price. He said for some luxury properties it would limit LVRs on new loans to 70 per cent.
