When you have sufficient income for making mortgage payments, but you do not have sufficient savings for a deposit, a welcome home loan can be the right solution for you.

It is provided by lenders who work as partners with Housing New Zealand. With a welcome home loan, the deposit is only 10% of the price of the property while conventional mortgages require a deposit of 20%.

10% deposit is required

To qualify, you have to meet the specific requirements set by the chosen lender which can be a bank or a credit union. The maximum personal loan NZ amount that you can borrow will be determined by the area you are looking to invest in. There is an individual price cap for each category. The maximum amount which you can borrow is calculated by subtracting the 10% deposit from the total house price.

What I liked most was that I only needed to put down a 10% deposit instead of the required 20% that my bank asked.
