Reviews

Trusted by Auckland homeowners.

Real feedback from people who've worked with Curb.

Curb walked me through what they'd pay for. Trades showed up Monday. Listed four weeks later and settled for materially more.
Sarah T. Homeowner · Remuera
Changed how I pitch tired listings to vendors. Conversion is up. Vendors get a better number, I get a cleaner sale.
James W. Real Estate Agent · Auckland Central
Selling meant a heavy discount or a scary loan. Curb was the third option. Settlement day, everything balanced.

Questions

Yes. There's no deposit, no progress payments, and no spending while your home is on the market. The facility is drawn down as work progresses and repaid in full at settlement from your sale proceeds.
We assess properties that have a clear path to sale based on agent appraisal and our own assessment. The facility is secured by a caveat, and we can extend the term if a sale takes longer than expected. The renovation also typically broadens your buyer pool, making sale more likely than with a tired home.
Pre-sale cosmetic and functional renovation: paint, kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, landscaping, exterior work, and minor structural changes where the equity supports it. We don't fund major structural work (extensions, second storeys) or non-renovation expenses.
Anywhere from $5,000 to $250,000, depending on your equity. Total combined LVR (existing mortgage + Curb facility ÷ property value) must stay at or below 70%. Use the calculator above for an instant indication.
No. Most of our customers have an existing first mortgage. As long as your combined LVR after our facility stays at or below 70%, an existing mortgage is fine.
Not yet. Curb is currently Auckland-only — central, eastern, and inner-western suburbs. Wider New Zealand coverage is rolling out through 2026.
