FIRST HOME BUYER

First Home Buyer

Buying your first home is both an exciting and confusing task. To make the process as seamless as possible, we have a step-by-step guide on securing a home loan approval for your first home purchase.

MORTGAGE

Refinancing

Refinancing is moving your home loan from one bank to another or from a non-bank lender to a bank.

Investment Property

In New Zealand, property investment is the single most significant type of wealth creation. Property investment needs to be carefully planned to be successful.

Commercial Loan

A commercial loan is backed by a commercial property such as a retail shop, an office building, or an industrial warehouse.

Construction Loans

When you have looked at various homes and can’t find the right fit, the next best option is to construct yourself. But, of course, the first question most people ask is how and where to begin, and while building your own home may sound thrilling, it may be frustrating if things don’t go as planned.

You will need to determine the costs of building the home and the documents required for loan approval.

Property Development

You are now a property owner, and you are ready to carry out your next housing project. Property development is a logical next step for homeowners wishing to expand their property portfolios. Most investors start by building 2-4 houses on an extensive section and renting them out or selling them to earn profit from the development business, which can turn into a new stream of revenue.

While property development can be lucrative, the lending market and the numerous financing choices are complex, even for experienced investors and developers. Therefore, you must get the right help and advice when borrowing money to fund property development.

Before moving into your new home, there are several steps you’ll need to complete. Don’t worry, Infinity Loans is here to walk you through the process.
