🏑 From a Dream to a Brand-New Home! πŸŽ‰

Kedge and Hervie's property journey started back in 2023 when they first reached out to ask a simple question:

"Is it even possible for us to buy a home in New Zealand?"

Fast forward to 2026, and today they're the proud owners of a beautiful brand-new home! πŸ™Œ

Helping families turn what feels impossible into reality is one of the most rewarding parts of my job. It's a privilege to be trusted with one of the biggest financial decisions and investments of their lives.

Whether you're looking to buy your first home, build your dream home, invest, or simply want to understand your options, it all starts with a conversation. My team and I have helped hundreds of Kiwi families achieve property ownership, and we'd love to help you too.

πŸ“ž If you've been wondering "Can I buy a home?" or "Where do I start?", let's chat. You might be closer than you think.

🏑 A huge congratulations to Marvin & Nicole on moving into their brand new home! πŸŽ‰

I still remember helping Marvin's parents build their family home nearly 10 years ago. Time really does fly!

What impresses me most is how hard-working this family is. Through dedication, perseverance, and smart planning, Marvin and Nicole have now achieved the dream of building a beautiful new home of their own.

Helping hardworking families into their own homes is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. Seeing clients turn their goals into reality never gets old. ❀️

Thinking about building a new home yourself? Let's have a chat. I've been through the process, helped hundreds of Kiwi families build their homes, and would love to help make your dream a reality too.

A brand-new home in the middle of winter means a warm and cozy place to call home. ❄️πŸ”₯ This wasn't the easiest journey, and there were times we almost lost hope, but we got there in the end!
Enjoy every moment in your new home, guys ❀️

🏑✨ Nothing beats moving into a brand-new home in the middle of winter!

A huge congratulations to my wonderful clients, Ryan & Ronnah, who moved into their beautiful new home last week. πŸŽ‰πŸ”‘
They've worked incredibly hard to achieve this milestone, and it's so rewarding to see them settle into a warm, comfortable place they can truly call home ❀️

One thing I've learned is that every buyer's financial situation is different. While not all building companies offer turnkey options, at Squirrel we're able to support both sides of the journey β€” providing funding solutions for builders and helping buyers secure the finance they need to make homeownership possible. 🐿️🏠

Congratulations again, Ryan & Ronnah! Wishing you many happy memories in your new home for years to come. πŸ₯‚βœ¨

Gerry & Share are a hardworking couple who were referred to me by a real estate agent after they had some challenges getting finance elsewhere. I’m really pleased we could help turn things around and see them through to settling their first home 🏑✨

Huge congratulations to you both – all the best for this exciting next chapter πŸŽ‰πŸ‘

Global uncertainty is still the headline 🌍. While the RBNZ held the OCR as predicted, ceasefire news and potential cash rate hikes later this year mean the landscape is shifting fast πŸ“ˆ.

It’s a waiting game, but you don't have to wait to be prepared. Now is the time to review your position with an adviser to ensure you're ready for any bumps in the road πŸ“‰πŸ .

🏠 Thinking of buying in 2026? Let’s bust some myths!

Banks aren't looking at every single coffee or Uber Eats order. They want to see discipline and stability, not a perfect receipt.

Here is what actually matters for your pre-approval:

πŸ’° Income is King: Steady, predictable income is best. If you're self-employed, have 2 years of financials ready to go.

β˜• Spending Patterns: Lenders look at the big picture and your financial "vibe," not every small purchase.

πŸ’³ Credit Cards & BNPL: Unused credit card limits can lower your borrowing power. Try to clear Afterpay balances before applying.

🎁 Clean Deposits: If family is helping out, make sure the paper trail is clear and easy to explain.

πŸ“‰ Budget for Reality: Pre-approval is your ceiling, not your goal. Leave room for interest rate changes and life’s surprises!

The biggest mistake? Rushing the process. Preparation beats urgency every time.
