Lending advice tailored to one of Tauranga’s fastest-growing family suburbs.

Welcome Bay has a mix of older homes, modern builds, and properties on sloped sections — all of which affect how lenders view risk, valuations, and insurance. As a mortgage broker Tauranga homeowners trust, I help Welcome Bay buyers and owners secure lending that fits both the property and their long-term plans.
• Many homes sit on sloped or elevated sites, so banks often want clear geotech or valuation notes.
• Older homes may require updated building or insurance reports.
• Growth in new subdivisions can influence deposit requirements and finance timing.
A couple wanted a renovated three-bedroom home on an elevated site. Their bank hesitated due to the contour and previous retaining work. I worked with the valuer, clarified the reports, and presented a clean file to a lender comfortable with the property type — securing approval well before the finance date.
