Property-secured lending Indicative answer in ~48 hours 550+ broker network
Short-term property finance

When banks move too slowly, we move at the speed of your deal.

Blossum provides short-term finance secured by a registered first or second mortgage over New Zealand property. Clear lending criteria, a disciplined credit process, and committed funding, so an approved deal actually settles. Indicative answers in around 48 hours and settlement in roughly 13 to 15 days.

Why borrow from Blossum

Fast because we are disciplined, not because we cut corners.

Most non-bank lenders sell speed. Speed only matters to a broker if the deal actually settles. Blossum pairs a fast indicative answer with a rigorous credit process and committed funding, so the deal you place holds up all the way to settlement.

01
Disciplined speed

How we underwrite

Institutional-grade discipline, at non-bank speed.

Every deal is assessed against the five C's of credit. It is the framework that lets us move quickly and still stand behind the decision, and it is what makes a Blossum approval something a broker can rely on.

C1
Character
Who is behind the deal. Track record, intent and conduct, screened through World-Check and full AML and CFT checks.
C2
Capacity
The ability to service and repay. We test the exit and, where it applies, prepaid interest so the facility is covered for its term.
C3
Capital
The borrower's own stake in the transaction. Real equity in the deal aligns interests and absorbs the first movement in value.
C4
Collateral
A registered first or second mortgage over NZ property, assessed on conservative valuations using current market evidence, not optimistic projections.
C5
Conditions
The purpose, the term and the exit. We structure the loan around the deal in front of us and underwrite the exit at the start.

Why it matters to you
This is reassurance for the borrower and a credibility asset for the broker. Disciplined, not desperate, is what keeps approvals settling.

Common questions

Borrower and broker FAQ

How fast can you give an answer and settle?

On a weekday, a Credit Manager will usually give an indicative answer within around 48 hours of receiving your loan summary and security details. Once an offer is accepted and documentation is complete, settlement typically takes roughly 13 to 15 days.

What security do you take?

Every loan is secured by a registered first or second mortgage over New Zealand property. Blossum is a secured lender only. We do not lend on bare land or leasehold property, and we do not do consumer or unsecured lending.

How are loans funded?

Loans are funded from committed capital, not raised deal by deal. Because the funding is already in place, an approved loan is far less likely to fall over at the funding step, which matters when a settlement date is locked in.

What can the funds be used for?

Acquisition, refinancing, bridging, equity release, and property-backed working capital, each with a clear exit such as a refinance to a bank, a sale, or a capital event. Terms run 6 to 12 months, from around $150,000.

How do you assess a deal?

Against the five C's of credit: Character, Capacity, Capital, Collateral and Conditions. That includes conservative valuations using current market evidence, prepaid interest where it applies, and World-Check plus full AML and CFT screening. The exit is underwritten at the start.

What does it cost?

Pricing is quoted per deal, based on the security, the structure and the term. We do not publish rates or fees here. For an indication on a specific transaction, talk to the credit team or ask your mortgage adviser.

Can I apply through my mortgage broker?

Yes. Brokers place most of our deals through a 550+ adviser network. Your broker can self-qualify the deal against our criteria and submit a short summary to the credit team for a fast indicative answer.

Can I repay early?

Loans are short-term and structured around a defined exit. If you want to repay ahead of the agreed term, talk to the credit team and they will set out the payout details for your facility.
