First homes, in their words

Melissa


The Signature Homes Northland team have been great. We completed a build project with Craig and the team several years ago and we are back again for them to build our new forever home too.

Lois


I feel we are a team, having met the Signature crew who are taking me through the build process to completion has been a delight. Their communication and information sharing is impressive.

Chloe


Not pushing very understanding and followed up but not too much that it became a person you'd avoid their phone calls. 

Nikayla


Honestly, we could not ask for a better team. Hannah is incredible, so lovely, understanding and considerate. The team is awesome and explaining all parts of the process, they are honest and also care.



New build finance, made simple

How financing a new build actually works

Building new is often more achievable than buying existing - you just need the right roadmap.

  1. 1

    Start with a free finance chat

    Sit down or jump on a call with our new home finance experts for a clear picture of what you can afford.

  2. 2

    Line up your deposit

    New builds can qualify for lower-deposit lending than existing homes, and your KiwiSaver may be able to go toward your first home deposit.

  3. 3

    Choose how you pay

    Turnkey packages mean a deposit now and the balance when you get the keys. Progress payment builds spread payments across build stages.

  4. 4

    Get pre-approved and sign with certainty

    With pre-approval sorted and your fixed price locked in, you can commit with confidence.

  5. 5

    Build, then move in

    Your local team keeps you updated through the build, right up to your guaranteed completion date and key handover.

Book your free new home finance chat

Thirty minutes with a new build finance expert could save you months of second-guessing.

  • Understand your borrowing power for a new build
  • See whether KiwiSaver can boost your deposit
  • Compare turnkey vs progress payment options

General information only - your finance chat will cover advice specific to your situation.
