Why smart NZ borrowers use a
loan broker
instead of applying direct.

Most people don't realise that applying directly with multiple lenders leaves a mark on their credit file every single time. Five applications means five hard credit checks and a lower score before you've even borrowed a cent.

With Lending Room you apply once. We do one soft check, match you to the right lender and present you with your options. Your credit score stays intact and you get a better result.

One application. We find the right lender for your situation.

Everything you need to know before you apply.

Can't find what you're looking for? Contact our team

Will applying affect my credit score? +

We use a soft credit check during our assessment which does not appear on your credit file or affect your score. After we match you to a lender, some accept our soft check while others may run their own standard credit check as part of their process.

Why should I use Lending Room instead of applying direct? +

Every time you apply directly with a lender they run a hard credit check that leaves a mark on your file. Apply to five lenders separately and your score takes five hits before you have even borrowed a cent. With Lending Room you apply once, we assess your situation and match you to the lender from our panel most likely to get you a better deal — all with a single soft check that does not affect your score.

How many lenders will see my application? +

We review your application and match you to the lender on our panel most likely to get you a better deal. We do not blast your details to every lender at once. You receive a tailored match based on your situation.

Can I apply if I am on a work visa? +

Yes. We accept open and employer-specific work visas with at least 13 months remaining, provided you have a regular NZ-based income and a good credit history.

Do you offer business loans? +

Yes. We match businesses to lenders for term loans, working capital and equipment finance. Apply once and we find the right fit for your business.

Is there a fee to use Lending Room? +

A broker and introducer fee of up to $1,500 applies when your loan is successfully funded. This fee is added to your loan amount and is GST inclusive. It is disclosed clearly before you commit to anything and you are never under obligation to proceed. Lender establishment fees may also apply depending on the lender.

How quickly can I get an answer? +

In most cases you will hear back the same day. Same-day funding is possible for applications approved before 12pm on business days.

What is the minimum and maximum loan amount? +

The minimum is $3,000 and the maximum is $250,000, depending on the lender and your personal circumstances. Loan terms range from 6 to 84 months.
