Usable equity is an indicative calculation and depends on bank-specific lending criteria and current market valuations. This does not constitute a loan approval or financial advice.
DTI Disclosure Statement
The DTI results are indicative and based on a standard multiplier of 6x for owner-occupiers and 7x for investors. Banks may allow for 'high DTI' lending under specific 'speed limit' exceptions (up to 20% of their lending). This tool does not perform a full CCCFA affordability assessment, which would include a detailed review of your specific monthly 'discretionary' versus 'non-discretionary' spending. New builds are currently exempt from the RBNZ DTI restrictions.
These results are based on generic information and do not constitute a quote, pre-qualification, or an offer of finance. Actual borrowing capacity may vary based on lender-specific policies, credit history, and current market conditions.
