Mortgage Broker Palm Beach
Palm Beach is a Waiheke beach between Oneroa and Onetangi, with houses above the sand, used both as homes and as holiday places.
Mortgage advice for Palm Beach
The insurance quote and a clear answer on living there are the two facts that sort the lender. Short-stay use should be named early. A difficult drive or on-site wastewater joins that same first conversation.
This is Palm Beach on Waiheke, not a mainland suburb. Onetangi is the longer beach to the east. Oneroa is the village to the west.
Appointments for Palm Beach are by video with an adviser from our Paraparaumu team. We are FMA licensed (FSP665511), independent of any one bank, and we compare 16+ lenders. Mortgage advice is free to you. The lender pays a commission when the loan settles.
Say if you will live there
A house you will live in at Palm Beach, a holiday house, and a place used for short stays are three different applications. On-site wastewater, a rainwater tank, and a steep or shared drive belong in the first conversation, with the insurance quote. The lender list is shorter when the house is not a permanent home.
People comparing Palm Beach usually also look at Oneroa, Ostend, Onetangi, and Surfdale. Each of those has its own page. The adviser is the same. The property is not.
What to have ready
Tell us if you will live in the house or use it as a holiday place. If you already have the insurance quote, the title, and anything about wastewater or the water supply, send those through.
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.

The panel
Compared before anyone picks a bank
Major banks and specialist funders. The name on the recommendation is the one that fits the application, not the one with the loudest rate.
