Other mortgage brokers

Most don’t specialize in offshore buyers

They’re focused on local Kiwi deals—and it shows. We primarily work with overseas buyers and expats acquiring property in NZ.

They tell you what’s possible

We tell you what’s smart and don’t push approvals that lead to problems later. We help you structure your application to win with the right lender.

They wait for the banks

We pre-empt the banks. We know which lenders accept your income, visa, and deposit before you waste weeks applying.

We work with New Zealand’s best lenders for overseas buyers

Important to know

How New Zealand property buying and lending differs from the UK

No ABSD or Stamp Duty
NZ doesn’t charge stamp duties or extra taxes for foreigners—but you may not be allowed to buy.
Manual Lending, Tougher Income Tests
Expect more paperwork. NZ banks don’t love overseas income and may discount it heavily.
Landed Homes Off Limits
Just like Singapore, NZ restricts foreign buyers. New builds are your best bet.
Shorter Loan Terms, Frequent Refixing
Fixed rates last 1–2 years. Renewing your rate is part of the norm.
Simple Tax System, No CGT
There’s no wealth tax or CGT—but the Bright-line rule taxes profits if you sell early.
