Thinking home ownership is out of reach by yourself? We’re starting to see more and more buyers teaming up with trusted family members or friends to purchase property.

Shared mortgages can boost your deposit and borrowing power, but they need the right structure.

We can walk you through the key things to know before you commit.

Let’s see if we can make home ownership a reality 👉 https://tonymouncemortgages.co.nz/contact-us/

Great news for Christchurch City & the West Coast…!

I’ve just been having a look at the latest QV House Price Index and there are some positive trends worth taking a look at.

🔴 ⚫ Christchurch City is showing some of the strongest quarterly growth in the country, up 2.1% in the last three months - a really encouraging sign of market momentum that doesn’t show any signs of slowing down.

🌧️🌱 Over on the West Coast the Grey District has been performing well too, with the latest data showing a 5.5% growth in property prices in the last 12 months, second only to the Westland District showing a 6.5% increase in the last 12 months, with the average property price sitting at under $500k - pretty affordable if you ask me.

While the national picture is a bit mixed, these two areas are really standing out with upward trends, which is great for both owners and buyers looking for areas with good activity.

If you want to chat about what this means for you, I’m always happy to help! 👉 https://tonymouncemortgages.co.nz/contact-us/

Happy 2026! 🎉

Have you been dreaming about your first home over the summer break? ☀️ Getting pre-approved now is a smart way to turn those dreams into reality.

Do you know how an interest rate drop can affect your affordability? A small rate drop can reduce repayments, ease pressure and improve borrowing power.

Or, you could keep your repayments the same and make headway on saving some interest and paying your mortgage off sooner.

If your fixed rate comes up for renewal this year, don’t just accept what you’re offered. It is a great time now to explore your options and get ahead of the curve and hit the ground running in 2026.

Likewise if you’re looking at purchasing get in touch and we can offer the right advice to suit your situation.

Want to run the numbers in the meantime? Check out our mortgage calculator - it’s an easy way to review rates and view the impact on your repayments.

All I want for Christmas… is a lower mortgage rate? 🎅

With interest rates easing and the South Island property market gaining traction, now’s the time to check if your mortgage still works for you.

Data from the New Zealand Parliament shows that the average mortgage rate faced by all mortgage holders fell to 5.36% in September 2025, with both fixed and floating rates easing.

Is your mortgage rate higher than it needs to be? A quick review before the year ends, or early in 2026 could kick your year off with more clarity, whether that’s a new home, a smarter structure, or a better rate.

From 1 December, LVR (Loan-to-Value Ratio) restrictions are set to ease, opening the door a little wider for first home buyers.

The key change? The cap on low-equity lending by banks (loans with deposits under 20%) is increasing from 20% to 25%.

That means more buyers with smaller deposits may now qualify for lending, provided they meet servicing and personal criteria.

If you've been saving for a while but haven't quite hit that 20% deposit, this could be your moment to check where you stand.
