Pre-approval

Know what lenders may be willing to offer before you make an offer on a property. We help you prepare the information lenders need and explain the conditions attached to any approval.

First-home buyers

Buying for the first time can feel crowded with unfamiliar terms. We help you understand deposit requirements, loan structure, repayments, and the application process.

Refinancing

If your loan is coming off a fixed rate, your circumstances have changed, or you want to review your structure, we can compare options and discuss the trade-offs.

Investment and construction

We can assist with investment property lending and construction loan scenarios, including staged drawdowns and lender requirements for build projects.

What to Prepare

A stronger application starts with clear information.

Exact requirements vary by lender and situation, but most applications need a clean view of income, expenses, debts, deposit, identity, and property details.

  • Recent income evidence and employment details.
  • Bank statements, existing loan details, and living expense information.
  • Deposit source, purchase timeline, and property or build information.
  • Any KiwiSaver first-home withdrawal process questions can be discussed as general process guidance.
