We’ll assess your situation and provide you with expert advice on how to structure your mortgage, reduce your payments and ultimately become mortgage-free faster. We’ll also answer those niggly questions, like:

  • What’s the lowest interest rate in market?
  • Fix or float, or a combination of both?
  • Which bank is best for me?
  • Can I avoid break fees?
  • How much could I be saving?

Best of all, in most cases there is no cost to you because we get paid by the banks.

Would highly recommend Baz and his team! It was such a great experience and easy process. We were first home buyers and couldn't have done it without Baz's invaluable advice and assistance.

By Rodney Dickens

In some parts of the world, like the US, the drop-off in house sales over winter is big enough to have a dramatic impact on house prices—but not so in New Zealand. Squirrel guest blogger Rodney Dickens dives into the data in his latest article.

OCR & interest rates update – May 2025

By John Bolton

And another 0.25% it is! Just as expected, the RBNZ dropped the OCR from 3.50% to 3.25% on 28 May. But while every step closer to neutral is a step in the right direction, how much of a difference will it really make to mortgage rates?

My partner and I were looking to purchase our first home, we had no idea what we were doing and the amount of information we were accessing seemed very overwhelming. We made some enquiries about brokers, made an website and were put in touch with Basil. He simplified the process right down for us, was available every step of the way and after a number of false starts, we moved into our new home yesterday. Couldn't recommend these guys more. Especially Basil, who I am now referring to anyone who I know is looking to start their home ownership journey.
