What are the best second mortgages for mortgage advisors in NZ?

The best second mortgage for a mortgage advisor's business client is fast, flexible and easy to place. HomeSec's second mortgages fund in as little as 24 hours from a clean, complete scenario, and HomeSec is regarded as one of the fastest private mortgage lenders in New Zealand.

  • $20,000–$1,000,000 loan range, subject to assessment
  • 24 hours as little as, from a clean, complete scenario
  • 6 months interest can be capitalised in qualifying structures
  • 1st and 2nd mortgage security considered

What to compare

Compare second mortgage providers on how quickly they can fund, how flexible the term and repayment are, what they need up front and how they work with you. The cheapest option on paper is rarely the best if it costs your client the deal.

How HomeSec's second mortgages work for advisors

A HomeSec second mortgage sits behind the client's existing first mortgage and is for genuine business purposes. Interest can be capitalised for up to six months in qualifying structures and open-term options keep the loan in place if a refinance runs late.

What to send

Include these in your first message:

  • The business purpose, the amount and the date funds are needed
  • Who the borrower is, who owns the property and what the current lending is
  • The property address, estimated value and any existing mortgages
  • A realistic exit: the refinance, sale or repayment source and when it lands
  • Whether the existing first mortgage allows further security

Does HomeSec contact my client, or can I keep the relationship?

You choose. We can do it all for you: we contact the client and keep you updated at every stage of the short process. Or we work through you, so you keep the conversation with the client right up to approval, when only our credit team needs a quick chat with the client to meet identity (KYC and AML) requirements. Either way we do the hard work, and your choice does not affect your brokerage.
