How this calculator works

New Zealand mortgages typically offer fixed-rate terms (commonly 1 to 5 years) and floating-rate options. This calculator shows repayments based on a consistent interest rate across the loan term β€” use it to compare what different rates or term lengths will cost you.

The RBNZ sets LVR (Loan-to-Value Ratio) restrictions that affect how much you can borrow. Owner-occupiers typically need a minimum 20% deposit, while investors face stricter requirements.

Your monthly repayment shown is the principal and interest component only. You'll also need to budget for council rates, building insurance, and any body corporate fees if purchasing an apartment.
