Low interest rates = cost of borrowing falls = people and businesses take out more loans = more economic growth

On a large scale, lots of mortgagee sales can effect housing to such a degree the LVR gets shifted meaning the home owner may have to top up the mortgage with a cash payment in a short amount of time or risk foreclosure.
