Are you a first home buyer? Looking to get into the property market? Needing help with your deposit?
Kainga Ora’s First Home Partner is a shared ownership scheme to help aspiring first-home buyers.

How will this work, here is an example:
Your deposit: $100,000
Bank approval for $600,0000
Kainga Ora Contribution: $200,000
Purchase Price: $900,000
If you want to know more about how this works and start the process please give me a call on 021-0822-6113 or flick me an email manshil@benchmarkmortgages.co.nz
