Using your KiwiSaver for a house deposit is a key option for many first-home buyers in New Zealand. To be eligible, you must have been a member for at least three years and intend for the property to be your main residence.
Previous homeowners may also qualify if Kāinga Ora assesses them as being in a similar financial position. You can withdraw most of your funds, but must leave a minimum of $1,000. Always check your specific provider's withdrawal policies.
