Free First Home Buyers Seminar

One free evening. A mortgage adviser, a lawyer, a real estate agent and a building inspector answer every first home question you have.
About this Event

Thinking about buying your first home? Start here.

Buying your first home can feel overwhelming. There are deposits and pre-approvals and LVRs and a pile of jargon you've never heard before and underneath it all, the question that actually keeps you up: can I even get approved?

This evening is designed to answer that. No sales pitch, no pressure, no jargon left unexplained. Just a clear, honest walk through what it actually takes to buy your first home in Nelson, from the people who do this every day.

What we'll cover

• Budgeting and deposits how much you actually need, and where it can come from
• Pre-approval what lenders look at, and how to put yourself in the strongest position
• The First Home Loan scheme who qualifies and how it works
• Finding the right place what to look for, and what the current Nelson market is doing
• Making an offer conditional vs unconditional, and where people get caught out
• The legal side sale and purchase agreements, LIM reports, title, settlement
• Builders' reports what a building inspection covers, and the red flags worth walking away from
• And beyond what happens after you get the keys

Who you'll hear from

We've brought together the full team you'd normally have to chase down one at a time:

• A Mike Pero mortgage adviser, on finance and pre-approval
• A real estate agent, on searching, negotiating and the local market
• A property lawyer, on contracts, conditions and settlement
• A building inspector, on what to check before you commit

There'll be time for questions, and you're welcome to stay afterwards for a one-on-one chat.

Who it's for

Anyone thinking about their first home whether you're planning to buy in the next few months or just starting to wonder if it's even possible. Bring your partner, bring a friend, bring your parents. Come with questions.
