Welcome to Captivate Homes your housing and renovating specialists. Here at Captivate Homes we understand the changes and challenges of the current housing market. It is our aim to get you in your first home, coach you on how and where best to invest in property or even move into a brand new home. Whatever expertise you need – we are here to help.

Captivate New Homes stand out from the crowd. We pride ourselves on providing quality new build homes that are built to stand the test of time. We also take the time to ensure the layout and design is optimised to make it functional, comfortable and something you will be proud to own for years to come.

We support those who are looking to invest on the best places to buy with a strong demand for tenants and the right type of house to buy to make the investment worthwhile, coupled with exceptional ongoing advice.

Do you dream of owning your own home but just can't seem to save that critical first deposit to get on the property ladder? Are prices rising faster than you can save, and just when you think you have finally saved enough deposit the market shifts again? At Captivate Homes are here to help. With certain lenders it is possible to achieve financing with as little as a 5% deposit of the Purchase Price. Whilst a 5% deposit, as genuine savings, is always preferred, KiwiSaver Savings plus the KiwiSaver FirstHome Grant, a second mortgage or even a guarantor, can often help you increase your deposit so you can own your own home!. There may be several options available to people who have low deposits. If you would like to discuss your situation with a mortgage broker but don’t know who to contact, we can provide you with a referral to an independent registered financial service provider who can consider your financial position and needs.

Captivate has a more personal touch and the fact that John fronts the business and he takes the time to meet with you and go the extra mile, along with his staff. We loved how upfront they were and their ability to point out when a property is not going to meet your needs and show you one that will. Basically, they pick the investment property that will suit you and your portfolio. I cannot praise them enough and would highly recommend them as a company.

We found them very helpful and insightful with the investment property process with regards the analysis done in the region into which we have invested. We found the process of acquiring investment property stress free and there was regular communication between ourselves and Captivate Homes updating progress made.

Our experience with Captivate has been very positive. John makes property investment easy with his service of finding properties, upgrading and organising a property manager. We have always had tenants lined up to ready to move into the property at settlement. We felt confident to recommend Captivate to our family who purchased two properties as we have a lot of trust in Captivates ability to deliver a great product in the time that they said they would. If we had not had Captivate help to get started on our investment portfolio we would have never had the know-how or confidence to do it.

We purchased our first property with Captivate Homes in 2015 and our second investment through Captivate Homes in 2016. With the help and guidance of John and the team, we have been able to invest at a level we have been comfortable with and have successfully realised equity and cashflow. We are now looking to purchase another property and feel the benefits of buying through Captivate have been invaluable. The best thing we could have done was meet with the Captivate team to discuss our goals and tailor an investment strategy to achieve this.
