New kid on the block

Home loans industry gains another player as Freedom Home Loans enters the broking market.

Parent company Crown Finance Limited has launched Freedom Home Loans which aims to seek out, and negotiate, competitive home loan rates for New Zealand buyers.

Director Chris Arbuckle said that, in today’s housing market, people can’t simply go to one bank and expect to get the best home loan rate.

“It pays to shop around, and Freedom Home Loans is dedicated to doing this for our clients and at no extra cost.”

Along with home loans, the company will offer personal loans, car loans, and finance for property development.

It also has a finance option for people selling property called “realtor advantage”, which provides access to marketing finance of $3,000 - $20,000.

Such a loan could then be used to pay for home staging, home improvements and tailored advertising.

Arbuckle said that The Crown Group, which includes Crown Finance and Crown Property, is confident that Freedom Home Loans will be a successful addition to its well-established stable.

The company will be targeting buyers who want to be walked through the home finance process, and have all the hard work done for them, he said.
