Apartment buildings due for completion in 2017 and 2018 are often located in postcodes which are considered as risky by lenders. A study of Rider Levett Bucknall’s crane index in the September 2016 quarter indicates that about 38 per cent of cranes were located in such areas. Brisbane’s apartment scene is particularly problematic, with nearly 57 per cent of all cranes located in areas of restricted lending.
