We all know those people (or maybe you are that person...) The ones who are saving for a house, so turn down every invite ever OR the ones who own a house

🎉 We’re Turning ONE! 🎉

Today marks one year since NZHL Karaka opened its doors — and what an amazing year it’s been! We’re so proud to have helped so many in our community get smarter with their home loans and insurance, and we couldn’t have done it without your support. 💙

A massive thank you to our clients, friends, families, and of course, our superstar team!

Special shoutout to Owen and Anna — who we hope still want to work here after I made them take an impromptu anniversary photo this morning. No warning, no prep, just vibes. 📸😂

Here’s to many more years of serving the Karaka community — with fewer surprise photo shoots (maybe). 😉

Huge thanks to NZHL Karaka for sponsoring Patumahoe Platinum this season! 💙🙌

We had an awesome year on the court and are stoked to have finished runners-up in Prem Silver! 🥈 Couldn’t have done it without your support – it means a lot to have local businesses backing us all the way.

Bring on next season! 💪🏐

Oh – and a fun tip for all the AIA Vitality gals: you can pop the tracker out of your Apple Watch straps and tuck it in your pocket during games to still earn those points. You’re welcome 😏📱✨

These recognitions reflect the hard work, dedication, and commitment to helping more Kiwi families achieve financial freedom. Thank you to our amazing clients and community for your ongoing support – we couldn’t have done it without you!

Here’s to continued growth, service, and success! 💼🇳🇿

The start of the year is a great time to review your insurance. 🧐 Don't know where to start? We're here to help!
Here are five things to think about!

👉 Does your insurance cover accurately cover all your assets? For example, if the unimaginable happened and you needed to rebuild your house, would your insurance fully cover it?

👉 Have you made any large or expensive purchases? You may need to add them as listed items on your home contents policy.

👉 Could you be eligible for discounts if you consolidated your insurance providers?

👉 If you need to bring down your premium, it could be worth exploring if there is a way to bring down your premiums while still ensuring you're well protected. But don’t do anything until you talk to an expert, such as your Mortgage Mentor. They can help you figure out the options best for you.
