Kiwisaver

Isn’t it great that you can use KiwiSaver to make your dreams of home ownership a reality? If you’ve been contributing to KiwiSaver for three years or more, you may be able to withdraw some of your savings to use as a contribution to the deposit for buying your first house.

KiwiSaver has two features to help you buy your first home: the KiwiSaver HomeStart grant and the KiwiSaver first-home withdrawal. But… you’ll soon find out that it is a bit of a process. It is hugely important to follow all the steps, or you’ll risk missing out. That’s where our expert legal team can help.

You may be eligible to access one, or both of these options to get into your own home. It is, however, vitally important that you fill out the required forms correctly and in a timely manner.

If you’re currently looking at buying your first home and you’re exploring all the options on how to manage it all financially using KiwiSaver, don’t let the pile of paperwork that’s required deter you from your plans.

Here at The Law Shop, we can help you work through what you may be eligible for, and can help you apply for both the grant and the withdrawal.
