Common questions
Good to know before you buy.
How much deposit do I need?+
It depends on the lender and your circumstances, but many banks look for around 20%. Some offer low-deposit lending - your bank or a mortgage adviser can confirm what's possible for you.
Can I use my KiwiSaver?+
First-home buyers can often withdraw their KiwiSaver towards a deposit, subject to the current criteria. Check with your KiwiSaver provider for your eligibility.
What's included in a Westcott home?+
Every home is different, but all arrive complete and move-in ready. Ask our team for the full specification and exactly what's included with the home you're interested in.
How do I register my interest?+
Send us an enquiry with what you're looking for - location, number of bedrooms and timing - and our team will be in touch with current availability and pricing.
What does 'move-in ready' mean?+
It means your home is finished and ready to live in from the day you get the keys. Ask our team for the full specification of any home you're considering.
Can I buy off the plans?+
Often, yes. Buying early can let you secure a home before it's finished - talk to our team about what's available and how the timing and payments work.
