Did you know you could use your KiwiSaver funds to buy a home, even if you’ve owned one before?

To use your KiwiSaver to purchase another property, you need to be in the same financial position as a first homebuyer and have Kāinga Ora determine if you qualify.

The criteria includes:
• Being a KiwiSaver member for at least three years
•Not having previously withdrawn from KiwiSaver to buy property
• No longer owning any interest or share in the previously owned property
• Not having realisable assets worth more than 20% of the house price cap
