How old is too old to buy a property?
In this episode, Ed and Andrew break down what banks really think about age, and why turning 60 (or even 70) doesn’t automatically mean you’re out of the game.
You’ll learn:
- Why age isn’t the real issue
- What it looks like for both buying your own home and an investment property
- Real scenarios showing what older Kiwis would need to get approved
The short answer? Your 50s are absolutely not too late. Your early 60s can still work with the right structure. Late 60s and beyond gets harder ... but for the right borrower with a clear repayment strategy, it’s not impossible.
