Frequently Asked Questions.

  • Welcome only provides loans secured by first mortgage over residential and commercial land and/or buildings in New Zealand. Our loans are tailored to each borrower’s unique circumstances and requirements. Loans are typically 6 to 24 months, but we may provide shorter or longer terms where appropriate. Payment terms can be principal and interest, interest only, or in certain cases capitalised and payable on maturity. We make loans available for various purposes to individuals, companies, trusts, and other types of borrowers. We do not provide CCCFA lending.

  • Welcome invests in loans secured by first mortgages only. If a borrower is unable to meet the terms of the loan agreement and the property is sold, Welcome has first priority claim to the sales proceeds to recover the amount owing to us.

  • The amount you can borrow from Welcome is dependent on your financial circumstances and the security provided.

  • Yes, Welcome works direct with mortgage advisers nationwide.

  • Talk to your mortgage adviser in the first instance. If you do not have a mortgage adviser, get in touch with the Welcome team on 0800 WELCOME (0800 935 2663) or [email protected] and we will put in you touch with an independent mortgage adviser.

  • Non-CCCFA refers to loans that are not regulated under the Credit Contracts and Consumer Finance Act 2003 (CCCFA). Loans that are regulated under the CCCFA tend to be made to an individual borrower for personal use, rather than for commercial investment purposes.

We lend against residential and commercial land and/or buildings throughout New Zealand.
