Meet Chris, your local adviser
Chris and his wife Tracey were New Zealand Home Loans clients who saw, first hand, the differences the company made in their lives. He says New Zealanders are too accepting of 30-year mortgages when there is a better way to manage debt and improve your financial situation. He says the most common response he hears these days is “I wish I knew about this 10 years ago”.
Chris, who has lived in Whitby since 1997, previously worked in the media and telecommunications but was drawn to New Zealand Home Loans by the clarity and simplicity of its programs. He joined the firm in 2008 and opened the Mana office a year later.
Chris covers the greater Wellington Area including Wellington City, Lower and Upper Hutt, Porirua, the Kapiti Coast and Wairarapa. Outside the office, Chris is a certified diver and likes walking and playing tennis. He describes himself as a History Channel addict and a loyal Hurricanes supporter.

"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."
