Borrowing in Northland: what to know
- Building on Māori land. Building a home on Māori freehold land needs specialist finance, because the land usually can't be mortgaged like general land. Kāinga Ora's Kāinga Whenua loan is one option.
- Lifestyle, rural and holiday homes. Lifestyle blocks, rural properties and holiday homes each have their own lending rules, so the right lender matters.
- New builds. Kerikeri, Mangawhai and Whangārei have growing subdivisions, with construction loans paid out in stages as the build goes.
- Meet the way that suits you. In person by appointment with a regional adviser, or by video and phone.

Questions people in Whangārei ask
Can I build a home on Māori freehold land?
Yes, with specialist finance. Because the land usually can't be used as security in the normal way, lending is generally based on the home, through schemes such as Kāinga Ora's Kāinga Whenua loan. Talk to us early, as there are extra steps with the other owners or the land trust.
Can you finance a holiday home in Northland?
Yes. Lenders usually treat a holiday home like an investment property, so expect to need a larger deposit or equity, and to show you can service the loan.
Do you help first home buyers in Whangārei?
Yes, including low-deposit options such as new builds and the Kāinga Ora First Home Loan, and help checking the property before you commit.
How much does a mortgage broker cost?
Lenders pay us a commission when your loan settles. We may charge a fee in some cases, depending on your situation, and we always agree it with you up front. How we're paid
Can I meet an adviser in person in Whangārei?
Yes, by appointment with one of our regional advisers, or by video and phone if that suits you better.
