SPECIAL NOTICE:  New lending criteria has affected lenders in New Zealand.  This also affects some lending through NewBuild.  Many of the features offered through NewBuild are still available.  The main changes may include in some instances a larger deposit, and evidencing your income.  You should discuss your situation with a NewBuild advisor before committing to your next build, purchase or refinance. Where you have less than 20% deposit, you should inquire about how NewBuild may still be able to assist you in to your next home.

I would just like to take this opportunity to thank yourself and the rest of the Newbuild team for making the construction process of our new home so easy. As you are aware, it is not that long ago that we built our previous home, we did this process using a standard bank. The process was incredibly stressful as we were required to get constant updated valuations (at a cost of $400 per valuation). After each valuation there was the incredibly stressful wait to see if the valuation measured up to the banks expectations and whether they would draw down further funds to allow us to continue with the build process. This resulted in a very "stop start" kind of build.

With NewBuild it has all been incredibly painless and stress free. There has been no requirement for valuations throughout the process, our builders have dealt direct with NewBuild and the entire process has been seamless.

So, again thanks for everything, we would definitely use NewBuild again and recommend it to anyone thinking to undertake a new home construction.

[We] cannot speak highly enough of Newbuild. The management of the finance for the build project has been outstanding, and any queries were answered promptly. [We] would recommend to others who are thinking of building.

Newbuild is about managing the build for the client, the builder and the lender. It's about reducing the risks involved with building by providing a platform to manage the process. While the loan is a normal residential home loan offered through Sovereign Home Loans, the process is quite different from the way traditional banks view construction lending. So if you have been turned down by your lender, if you have a low deposit, or you just want your your next home loan professionally managed, it's time to contact NewBuild Finance.

I can fully recommend NewBuild's professionalism. The process... was very comforting and reassuring, from taking care of our daily financial management to inspections.[the NewBuild team] were able to show us the shortfalls which so often happen on new projects and to have contingencies in place if this did happen. I would use this process again if building. The home loan is also extremely competitive, fee free, and the advice we receive has saved us a lot of money already.
We thank [the NewBuild team] for their assistance and look forward to doing more business in the near future.
