Would highly recommend Baz and his team! It was such a great experience and easy process. We were first home buyers and couldn't have done it without Baz's invaluable advice and assistance.

All eyes on interest rates: Key OCR dates to watch for in 2025

OCR & interest rates update – April 2025

By John Bolton

On 9th April, the RBNZ dropped the OCR by a further 0.25% to 3.50%—meaning that now, if you look hard enough, you can almost see that 'neutral' OCR on the horizon. Here's how that could translate through to interest rates, and what all the global volatility going on right now means for us here in New Zealand.

By John Bolton

Mayank has been great to deal with. Our mortgage is floating for the first few days and then we will fix next week since there's been an OCR cut. Mayank was really good at explaining things especially the option of setting up part of the mortgage with a revolving credit.
