Fitch Ratings say Australian mortgage arrears showed sharper than usual rise ...Middle East

Conforming mortgage arrears (30+ days) rose 23 basis points to 1.36%, while non-conforming arrears jumped 39 basis points to 5.32%.

Fitch attributes the spike to the cumulative impact of prolonged high interest rates and persistent inflation straining household finances.

Meanwhile, housing prices rebounded, rising 0.9% q/q after a small decline in Q4 2024. Fitch expects further gains in 2025, supported by limited housing supply, falling rates, and strong migration, which should help contain losses from mortgage defaults.
