Private lenders in New Zealand for mortgage advisors

HomeSec is a private lender for New Zealand mortgage advisors and finance brokers, lending against property for business purposes from $20,000 to $1,000,000, and is regarded as one of the fastest private mortgage lenders in the country.

  • $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

Why advisors use private lenders

A private lender fills the gap when a client's timing, structure or circumstances do not suit a bank. For a mortgage advisor, a dependable private lender means you can keep the client, keep control of the outcome and return them to bank funding later.

How to choose a private lender

Five questions separate a useful private lender from a slow one:

  • How is speed measured, and can they show it?
  • Who makes the decision, and can you speak to them?
  • Will they work around how you handle your client relationship?
  • How flexible are the term, repayment and exit options?
  • Are they clear about what they will not fund?

Where HomeSec fits

HomeSec lends for business purposes only, against first or second mortgage security. Funding is possible in as little as 24 hours from a clean, complete scenario, and in some cases the same day for an unencumbered property where we take a first mortgage. You choose how involved we are with your client, and it does not affect your brokerage.

Why mortgage advisors use HomeSec

Speed, clarity and a direct line to the lender.

Deal directly with the lender

Talk to the people making the lending decision, not a queue.

Speed that is defined

The clock runs from a clean, complete scenario to funds, so you can plan your client's timeline.

Credit history is not the barrier

Credit checks are irrelevant to the decision, and a bad credit history is generally not an issue.

Light on paperwork

No valuations or cashflow records needed for the initial assessment.

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.

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.
