Mortgage Solutions for Building a New Home

Building a new home requires careful planning and budgeting. As your mortgage broker, Oliver Broomfield helps you navigate the various options to finance your new build project. Some of these options include:

Construction Loans

Construction loans are ideal for building a new home from the ground up. These loans provide funds in stages, called progress payments, to cover the costs at each step of the building process. They also offer flexible repayment terms to match your changing financial needs during construction. We help you find the right construction loan and lender for your project. 

Home Equity Loans

If you already own property or have built up equity in your home, you can use that as collateral for a home equity loan. This loan allows you to borrow against your property’s value to help finance your new build. We assist you in finding the best home equity loan options with competitive rates and terms.

Construction-to-Permanent Loans

Also known as “one-time close” loans, construction-to-permanent loans combine financing for both the building process and the permanent mortgage into one package. This option allows you to lock in a fixed rate for your mortgage once the construction is complete, eliminating the need for a separate loan and application process.

Turnkey Build Loans

Turnkey build loans are an excellent option if you’re looking to finance your entire new build project. These loans handle everything – from purchasing the land to building the house to completion and managing all the paperwork. Turnkey loans offer a low deposit up front, then no ongoing repayments until completion which is helpful if you are also paying rent during the build period.

Happy new homeowners with keys to their first home

My job is to walk you through the mortgage process and ensure you get the right mortgage and have a financially stable future ahead of you.

You don’t need to commit this to memory, but below is an overview of what my process looks like for first time home buyers:

Meeting and Chat

Every mortgage and loan is different, so I take the time to understand you and your situation, so we can prepare the right supporting documents for the bank

Set up for Mortgage Application Success

One of the biggest parts of my job, is making sure your application is complete and attractive to the banks to approve the loan. Particularly with first time homebuyers this can be a tricky to do. Your application is custom built to highlight your individual circumstance and lending eligibility.

Summary and Action Steps

I get it, it’s a lot to remember. After our first meeting, I will send you a summary that you can refer to at any time, plus a list of the action points we need to take to get ready for the next step.

Home Ownership Budget

Indicative home ownership budgets will be presented along with quotes for homeowners’ insurance to demonstrate that the budgeting for a new home has been well thought out and established.

A Home Buyers Financial Assessment

There are several hidden costs that come with buying a home that aren’t included in mortgage payments. To ensure you are fully prepared for the transition, we do a financial assessment to compare your existing fixed costs and the added costs of a new home to ensure you have the right finances in place.

Options for Deposits

First time home buyers are in a unique situation to utilize many different options to raise funds for a deposit. This includes grants, kiwi saver, family guarantees, and much more. I will ensure no stone goes unturned to find the best deposit option for you.

First Time Home Buyers Checklist

Buying your first home and securing lending is a time sensitive process with many steps. To help keep things on track, I offer a full checklist of steps and timeframes that need to be met. You will never be unsure of where we are in the process.

This is just a brief summary to give you an idea of what the process looks like to prepare for a mortgage. If you are ready to get started or want to ask a few more questions, contact me today.

Mortgage Process for Building a New Home

Securing a mortgage to build a new home may seem overwhelming, but with the right guidance, it can be a smooth experience. At Oliver Broomfield mortgages, we guide you through every step of the process, including:

Assessment and Pre-Approval

We assess your financial situation to determine how much you can borrow for your build project. This includes reviewing your credit score, income, debts, and other factors affecting your loan eligibility. With this information, we help you get pre-approved for a new build mortgage, giving you a clear budget for planning your dream home.

Finding the Right Mortgage

We work with you to find the best mortgage solution for your new-build project. This includes researching and comparing different loan options, negotiating favourable terms and rates, and guiding you through the application process. We also assist in securing any necessary insurance coverages for your new-build.

Loan Approval and Settlement

Once we have identified a suitable mortgage option, we will help you submit all the required documents to the bank for loan approval. Upon approval, we guide you through the settlement process to ensure a smooth transfer of funds for your new build.

Construction Progress Payments

At Oliver Broomfield Mortgages, we work with you and the lender to ensure that progress payments are made at each stage of the construction process. This may involve providing documentation and invoices from the builder to release funds for specific stages.

Final Inspection and Loan Conversion

Once construction is complete, we help arrange the final documentation to meet the new build home loan conditions which includes the land title, code of compliance, completion valuation, and house insurance. After the lender has accepted all of these documents, we assist in converting your construction loan into a permanent mortgage with regular repayments.
