A bank can only offer its own products. We compare options across multiple lenders and help match lender policy, rate, structure, and conditions to your situation.
That is especially useful for first home buyers, self-employed clients, and more complex scenarios.
This depends on your income, expenses, deposit, existing debt, credit profile, and each lender’s servicing rules. Borrowing limits can vary between lenders.
We can assess your position early, before you make offers, and help structure things to give you the strongest possible borrowing position.
A 20% deposit is common, but some buyers can purchase with less, in some cases from 5%, depending on lender policy and your circumstances. KiwiSaver, family support, and first home support options may also help.
In many cases, yes. If you meet the criteria and have contributed for at least three years, you may be able to withdraw most of your balance for a first home purchase.
You generally need to leave at least $1,000 in your KiwiSaver account.
Pre-approval is confirmation from a lender that they may lend up to a set amount, subject to conditions. It helps you shop with a clear budget.
It is not final approval, so conditions still need to be met before you go unconditional.
Fixed lending gives repayment certainty for a set term. Floating or flexible lending gives more ability to repay early or adapt your structure.
Many clients use a mix, so they get both certainty and flexibility.
