How it works

How matching works

Summit Mortgages is a referral point. Here's exactly what happens from the moment you tell us about your situation.

1

Tell us what you need

Fill in a short form: what you're after (first home, next home, investment property, refinance, refix, top up, or a new build), your region and your general timeframe. It takes a couple of minutes.

2

We match you with an adviser

We connect you with a licensed New Zealand mortgage adviser who suits your situation and region.

3

Your adviser takes it from there

Your adviser gets in touch directly, gives you their own disclosure, and works with you on the actual advice, paperwork and lender conversations. From that point on, your loan is between you and them.

What happens after the introduction

Once you're matched, your adviser will usually get in touch to arrange a time to talk. That first conversation is about understanding your situation properly, not a sales pitch. From there, they'll set out your options, explain their own disclosure and fees, and guide you through whatever comes next.

What to have ready

  • ID for everyone involved
  • A picture of your income and savings
  • Details of your deposit position
  • Details of any existing debts
  • Information on the property, if you already have one in mind
