A personal loan to pay for home improvement and DIY projects

You can borrow between $2,000 to $30,000 for home improvement projects big and small. From kitchen renovations to new bathrooms, decks and even pools, we can help. Our home renovation loans are unsecured personal loans. You don’t need to get quotes from tradies or put any assets up as collateral, which means you can get the money you need quickly and get cracking.

What can I use my loan for? Everything you need to make a house a home. You can borrow between $2,000 to $30,000 and use the money toward a DIY project or getting the professionals in. We’ve helped customers add a new room to their house, update their kitchens, create beautiful outdoor areas and much more.
Why use a personal loan instead of increasing the mortgage? If you increase your mortgage without increasing your repayments, you may pay interest for much longer, making the final cost significantly higher.
What if I need to borrow more? If you find that the initial loan amount isn’t meeting your needs, talk to your MTF Finance contact about borrowing more. Further lending will mean a new contract and a new loan assessment, but we can work through that with you.
Can all MTF Finance providers offer personal loans? All MTF offices nationwide can offer unsecured loans to eligible individuals and businesses. Our nationwide network of approved vehicle dealerships are currently not able to offer unsecured loans.
Is there a fee to settle my loan and can I repay my loan early? As with all MTF loans, you can settle your home improvement loan whenever you want. There is a small fee for settling which changes daily and you can check your account online for the most up-to-date settlement figure. Interest rates and fees vary between loan types.
Who can apply? If you’re a New Zealand citizen, resident or visa holder over 18 years of age and have a regular income, you can apply with MTF Finance.
