What to have ready
The title if you have it, and any consent paperwork you already know about. If a renovation is underway, say what is finished and what is not.
Photo ID, recent payslips, or two years of financial statements if you are self-employed. A list of debts, including buy-now-pay-later and the limit on a card you clear every month. A KiwiSaver statement if that balance is the deposit. You do not need a sale and purchase agreement to start.
