BUY A FIRST HOME FAST PROGRAMME
FIRSTLY – 100% realistic expectations. We will model exactly when you can buy your first home, and different ways to speed up that process – sometimes by years. You get a detailed roadmap explaining when and how to buy your first home. This includes house deposit saving models, spending breakdowns, and budgets.
SECONDLY – Actually buying a home. Setting goals and then not succeeding is demoralising, we don’t want that for you. Instead we will surround you with all the help required to get you approved and into your first home.
FINALLY – We aren’t in a rush. How long is the programme? As long as it takes, sometimes just 2 months (see below). You see we aren’t like typical mortgage brokers that do some math and then break your heart
This programme will take you from where you are today, to where you need to be to get into your first home as fast as possible. We will hold your hand and keep you accountable.
“Our journey with Ali and the team at WealthHQ started with the goal of wanting to buy our first home and we had little to no idea of how to get there. We consider ourselves super lucky to have the opportunity to work with Ali.
He accommodated all of our strange times of availability and really helped clarify the what, how, and why in the plan he set out. Following his guidance, we nailed the milestones we set out with his guidance.
We are now (2 months later) in a position to work with the MortgageHQ side to buy our first home. We look forward to toasting with Ali once we’ve taken the photo next to the sold sign outside our new home.
Michael and Luciana“
Getting into your first property can be stressful and seem impossible. We’ve been there. Our mission is to accelerate you into home ownership.
With the tools and help of Ali Al Bazzaz (Senior Adviser) and Mortgagehq (Sister Company), we have built a unique programme that is seeing kiwis who had little hope actually get into their own home.
Do you qualify? One of the first steps of our programme will be to look at low deposit options – some clients are blown away when we show them how they could actually buy a home right now.
What is the First Home Loan Scheme?
“The First Home Loan is offered by banks, underwritten by Kāinga Ora – Homes and Communities, and, designed for first home buyers who can afford to make regular repayments on a home loan, but have trouble saving for a large deposit.”

Deposit / Genuine Savings
There is help available if you are having trouble saving your deposit. Unlike a regular loan your deposit does not have to be genuine savings! Your deposit can be gifted by a relative. You can team up with other borrowers to put together your deposit and purchase a home. You can also use two features offered by KiwiSaver – the KiwiSaver HomeStart grant and KiwiSaver first-home withdrawal.
Our expertise is FREE to first home buyers because the bank pays us! Banks pay us a commission because we are essentially doing all of the hard work for them.
Let’s put some things in action. We can walk you through the best way to get you into a home as FAST as possible. This will be the first step to your building wealth portfolio.
We believe if we help our clients with ‘the small things’… you’ll trust us for ‘the bigger things’ in time to come; like upgrading or buying another property or simply telling your friends and family all about us!
