Squirrel is one of New Zealand's largest and most trusted mortgage advisers

Since 2008 we've been helping first home buyers, property investors and property developers, arranging over $11 billion in mortgages along the way. It's safe to say we know property inside out. 

In 2015 we launched our peer-to-peer platform, providing a better way for Kiwis to borrow, while giving investors better returns on their cash in a low interest rate world.

We only lend to homeowners, the market we know inside out

We lend to market niches that are under served by banks. This means investors can earn an attractive return for the credit risk.
