Read our latest blog on test rate also known as Sensitivity Servicing Rate (SSR).

The current interest rate environment does impact the test rates, the lenders would be quick to push the rates, which can impact your borrowing power.

Check out the blog here: skfg.co.nz...

⚠️ Some of the lenders have pushed up short to medium fixed term rates
⚠️ Protect yourself and your family so that financial strain is avoided. If you have existing insurance cover, well done, take some time to check whether it is adequate.

Some Choice News!

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

TV Signal Solutions Ltd. from TV Signal Solutions Ltd.

❤️ Celebrating Panasonic TVs

For so many Kiwi homes, Panasonic wasn’t just a TV brand — it was a trusted part of the lounge. From the legendary plasma days to their beautiful OLEDs, Panasonic always delivered picture quality that just felt right.
