We're here to help you sort your mortgage

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.

As a first-home buyer, I was pretty overwhelmed at the start by Squirrel made the whole process feel so much less scary. They explained everything in plain english, was super patient with all my questions and kept things moving smoothly from start to finish. I felt really supported the whole way through. Highly recommend if you're after someone who actually makes the mortgage process make sense!

I honestly didn't think we were able to get a mortgage or a house. Blake Neve made this possible and fulfilled the ultimate dream for us. Blake is patient, willing to answer any questions under the sun and is externally supportive. I would recommend him over and over again!

Adam in the Dunedin office was the pillar of strength we didn't know we needed through this whole process. Quick informative responses in easy to understand language. He listened to what we wanted to do, and worked with us explaining all the pros & cons to each option, and helped us narrow down to the best solution for us. Always polite and courteous, calm and reassuring throughout. When we next need lending or financial advise, Adam will be our go to guy!! :)

My partner and I couldn't be more impressed with Oli's help setting up our mortgage. As first home buyers, the process was daunting at first, but Oli assisted with every step. We also really appreciated Squirrel's transparency with banks they worked with and how their commission process worked. We are very satisfied with the final result and have already recommended others to Oli for his services!
