Investing in property is one of the most popular ways to build wealth in New Zealand. This is largely thanks to New Zealand’s investor-friendly tax rules, including:
– No Capital Gains Tax
– No Land Tax
– No Stamp Duty
As property specialists we help a wide range of clients find property, fund property and create strategies to create long-term sustainable growth.
We’ll work with you to develop a clear investment strategy and conduct a thorough financial analysis to ensure you’re making a smart decision. From setting up a New Zealand structure and securing loan approval to finding the perfect property through our buyer’s agents and trusted network of professionals, we’ll guide you every step of the way.

Our buyer’s agents will start by understanding your investment strategy to find the right property for your goals. They’ll provide detailed insights about the area and handle negotiations to secure the best possible price for your investment.
Specialist Property Solicitors
We work with specialist property solicitors to ensure the property transaction goes smoothly from negotiation to settlement.
Accountants And Tax Specialists
Our Accountants and tax specialists ensure you have the perfect structure to minimise taxation and provide the maximum amount of asset protection.
Currently, New Zealand does not have a comprehensive tax on capital gains like in Australia, minimising the potential tax paid on investments in New Zealand
New Zealand does not have stamp duty on property transactions, maximising the potential profit of residential property sales.
Australia currently has a much stronger dollar than the New Zealand dollar, which means your money goes further when investing in New Zealand.
The main advantage of investing in property is leverage, which is the ability to make returns on someone else’s money (usually the banks). In some cases you may borrow 100% of the purchase price, but also keep 100% of the gains.
Banks in New Zealand have long supported residential property investment. Unlike most other forms of investment, banks are prepared to fund the purchase of property up to 100% of its value depending on the investor and their overall position.
As a long-term investment (7 to 10+ years), property has very consistent and predictable returns. Statistics from the Real Estate Institute of NZ show that property has historically returned, on average around 6% capital growth per annum.

I've now been involved in almost all of the business and they have all been very professional and helpful. I've now bought a house through their property arm. Adam has been incredible the whole way through and even post sale he has been incredibly helpful with following up with the developer with my questions.
Lighthouse provides a range of comprehensive connected services and really operate as just one big team. Adam was able to help me source and work through my thought process and considerations on potential properties to invest in - providing different perspectives and willing to support. A great set of insights and willing to talk it straight.
Absolutely unbelievable service from Andrew and Laura. They helped us buying our first home in what is a very difficult process to get your head around at times. Felt in such safe hands with them.
The whole team at Lighthouse have been amazing in servicing all my personal and business needs. The team are friendly, attentive, and focused on delivering the best financial solutions tailored to my individual circumstances.
