Specialist Non-Bank Mortgage Advice. Licensed. Independent. Focused.
NZ Non-Bank Mortgages is a sub-brand of Fluent Financial (Shou Limited), a Class 2 Financial Advice Provider licensed by the Financial Markets Authority. We don’t work for the banks or the non-bank lenders — we work for you.
Who We Are
We’re a Christchurch-based mortgage advisory practice with a sole focus on non-bank lending. While most mortgage advisers spend most of their time placing straightforward bank loans, we’ve built our practice around the situations banks can’t — or won’t — help with.
Our director, Addison Dale, is a licensed financial adviser who works with 15+ non-bank lenders across New Zealand. Every client gets direct access to Addison — not a call centre, not a junior, not a chatbot. One adviser, start to finish.
Why We Exist
The New Zealand banking system works well for most people. But it doesn’t work for everyone. If you’re self-employed with complex income, if you have a credit issue from years ago, if you need to move fast on a property and the bank can’t keep up — you need a different approach.
That’s where we come in. We know the non-bank lending market inside out, and we use that knowledge to find the right lender for your situation, negotiate the best available terms, and build a plan to get you back to a bank when the time is right.
How We’re Different
• Non-bank specialists. This is all we do. We’re not generalists who occasionally place a non-bank loan — it’s our entire focus.
• Exit strategy on every loan. We don’t just get you a non-bank mortgage and walk away. Every loan comes with a clear plan to transition to a bank at lower rates.
• FMA licensed. We’re regulated, we carry professional indemnity insurance, and we’re members of an approved dispute resolution scheme.
• Christchurch-based, NZ-wide service. We work with clients across New Zealand. Everything is done remotely — phone, email, video call — so your location doesn’t matter.
• Fast response. We aim to respond to every enquiry within 2 hours during business hours.
