The pressure is coming on home owners.
A new forecast from the country\'s largest bank, ANZ, suggests house prices will fall to 18-percent of the peaks reached last year.
When recent wage inflation is taken into account, the fall will be about 27-percent.
\\nANZ Chief Economist Sharon Zollner told Mike Hosking that at the same time, interest rates are likely to keep rising -- with the Official Cash Rate likely to be raised to five-percent by February.
\\nShe says the OCR has been hiked spectacularly quickly, and the hikes may continue through next year.
\\nZollner says the OCR is likely to fall once there\'s a global sideswipe.
