Squirrel has been in the business of helping Kiwi borrow money for homes since 2008, arranging over $10 billion of mortgages.

Our mortgage advice is always impartial and honest, because the only goal is to leave you better off. And since 2015, Kiwi investors have trusted us with over $300 million of their savings too.

Our business is all about helping Kiwi make better financial decisions. We believe in total transparency and you’ll find we’re honest and open about how we work, where our funding comes from and what’s happening with your money.

We’ve won just about every award for mortgage brokering there is. But what makes us feel happiest is the feedback we get from happy clients.

Excellent service and result. Dealing directly with a bank and another broker (Mortgage Direct Hobsonville) was not an good experience and stressful.

One we got on board with Squirrel everything became clear - we found out a lot of important details that the other providers hadn't told us.

Squirrels knowledge of its business is impressive, as is the communication and professionalism of its advisors.

Big appreciation to Kat McInnes for pointing us in the right direction, and Jess for making what we originally thought was a complicated process, a lot easier.

Please feel free to share this feedback with relevant staff.

The team went out of the way to get the best deal for my circumstances. They talk to me about the pros and cons of each possibility. After signing the transaction, they followed up to see if the bank had completed all the steps. It was a painless transaction, as I didn't have to wait in a 2-hour phone cue to get information, let alone results. I highly recommend this team. This is my 2nd time working with them.

Very emotional time with separation and property settlement. Bad timing with economic disaster. however Squirrel advisor Jamie Fairmaid meet in person and then navigated me through the process of re-financing the mortgage. Took all the pressure away.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?

Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.

Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.

As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:

Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.

Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.

So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
