How to match first-home buyers with everyday investors
What do you think of the new online NZ platform Levridge aiming to match first-home buyers with everyday investors? Those with money to invest, put up a 20 percent deposit and those who have an income, but don't have enough to pay a deposit, take on the mortgage and live in the house.
After five years, the house can be sold and the two parties split the capital gains 50/50. Amy Wilkes is director of online house-buying platform Levridge.
What it costs To buy or invest
FOR BUYERS
In summary, a first home buyer is likely to have upfront fees of approx. $3,000-$4,000.
FOR INVESTORS
In summary, as an investor you will need to have sufficient capital to invest 20% of the value of the property, plus upfront fees of approx. $10,000.

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
