Second chance Kiwisaver: Buying your second home
Even if you’ve previously owned a home you may still be able to use your Kiwisaver for a deposit
AI summary
Even if you've owned a home before, you may qualify for a Kiwisaver second chance withdrawal to help buy another property. Kāinga Ora must assess you as being in a similar financial position to a first-home buyer.
To be eligible, you must meet standard withdrawal criteria, no longer own any property, and have realisable assets below a certain cap. The application involves both your KiwiSaver provider and Kāinga Ora. Allow extra time for settlement as the process can be lengthy.
