Specialist Lending

Sometimes it’s not easy, but we make it simple.

We offer short term, customised lending solutions to get your clients from A to B. Providing accessible solutions that enable people to achieve their goals.

How our loans work

We offer non-CCCFA bridging finance. We are fast, efficient, and understand every borrower’s situation is different. We focus on specialist property lending for situations that need special attention. Providing accessible solutions that enable people to achieve their goals.

People are our priority. That’s why we have both lending packages and bespoke solutions to fit your client’s individual needs.

So, if your loan request fits some but not all criteria, have a chat with us. We believe there’s a way to make things work.

How can we help your clients?

Being 100% independent means we’re free to work in ways that best benefit your clients. We take time to get to know people and understand individual circumstances.

Our approach is to treat everything on its own merits, not by boxes to tick.

Get in touch

Lots of Kiwis need specialist lending for lots of reasons and I always tell advisers to just pick up the phone and chat to me. There’s nothing better than working with a financial adviser to find the right solution for their client.
