Fast second mortgages for mortgage advisors

HomeSec offers fast second mortgages for New Zealand mortgage advisors placing business clients, from $20,000 to $1,000,000, with funding possible in as little as 24 hours from a clean, complete scenario.

  • $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

When advisors use a fast second mortgage

A second mortgage works when the client has equity behind an existing first mortgage and needs funds quickly without refinancing everything. Advisors use it to fund tax and supplier obligations, a time-sensitive purchase or working capital.

What to send with the scenario

A short, complete first message saves the most time. Include:

  • 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

Flexible structures

First or second mortgage security, open-term options and up to six months of capitalised interest in qualifying structures.

Clear updates

You hear what is needed and what is still subject to approval.

Questions advisors ask

Frequently asked questions

How fast can a second mortgage fund?

Funding may be possible in as little as 24 hours from a clean, complete scenario, subject to approval, documents, security, legal work and settlement requirements.

What is the minimum equity needed?

It depends on the property, the first mortgage and the exit, and is confirmed on assessment.

Can interest be capitalised?

Yes, for up to six months in qualifying structures, confirmed in the contract.

Do you need a valuation first?

No valuations or cashflow records are needed for the initial assessment.

How do I lodge a scenario?

Use the Run a scenario link on this page or log in to the broker portal.

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.
