"Chris Porter has been fantastic for us – he helped us to gain some perspective on how we can use our money better, identified that we were underinsured, and was always available to answer any questions we had – any time of the day or night and at weekends. When I set up my own business he also provided valuable advice, which was extremely useful. I would highly recommend him and New Zealand Home Loans and do so on many occasions!"

"Chris Porter, Mana!!! Not only does he ‘know his stuff’, he is a truly genuine, all-round nice guy. His patience knows no limits as he readily takes all the time needed to ensure I understand what is going on. He has always shown a great deal of respect for my opinions, and hasn’t laughed too loudly at my lack of financial knowledge 🙂 Chris has worked hard to form an authentic relationship, and, unlike every other bank I’ve dealt with in the past, has never made me feel like I only represent a profit to be made. His great sense of humour, absolute belief in New Zealand Home Loans and his enthusiasm are the cherries on top! Thanks for everything, Chris."

"Chris Porter from New Zealand Home Loans Mana helped me and my brother buy our first home and has been a great help to us, so much that we have recommended him to family and friends. The advice given is fantastic and the explanations helping understand the reasoning behind the recommendations, which is great because we’re learning at the same time helping with the whole process. I am a fan and recommend Chris & New Zealand Home Loans over normal banks any day."

"Chris Porter has gone above and beyond the call of duty for us – besides the fantastic product that is New Zealand Home Loans, (i.e. paying off interest faster and reducing our debt much earlier than conventional loans), he works to our goals and timelines. The after work calls and constant communication is a pleasant change to the traditional banking world!"

"Chris helped us refinance our mortgage and recommended a comprehensive insurance package. He did it in a way that was tailored to our circumstances and was easy to understand. We are now on track and should be able to pay our mortgage back in just over 7 years. Which will be 22 years faster than if we'd just stuck with our old mortgage structure. And our new insurance cover gives us peace of mind in case the worst happens. "
