What is the Shared Equity tick?
If any property you see online displays the tick, this indicates that it has been pre-approved for shared equity funding through one of the various shared equity (or shared ownership) financiers in New Zealand, subject to a builders report and valuation.
In simple terms, it could mean that you as a first home buyer can get into a home with just 5% deposit saved, in return for a share of equity in the property that gets paid back over time.
To find out how this all works, simply click onto a property showing the tick, then the “Contact the Agent” button. Fill in some basic details and they will get in touch and work through the possibilities with you.
