How it works

Three simple steps.

Curb introduces you to a financing partner. Then you choose Finance only, or Finance + manage. Your financing partner alone decides whether to approve any facility.

01

Free property assessment

We look at the property, renovation scope, and equity. This is not a credit decision. No obligation.

02

Financing partner decision

A financing partner alone decides whether to approve a facility. Where agreed, it may be secured against the existing property by a caveat — only enforced if necessary.

03

You choose how work runs

Finance only: you run the renovation. Finance + manage: optional Curb coordination where agreed. Neither path is a credit approval.

Feedback

From conversations with Auckland property owners.

Illustrative feedback for context — not verified reviews, and not a promise of similar outcomes.

Curb walked me through what could be considered. Trades showed up Monday. We listed a few weeks later.
Sarah T. Property owner · Remuera
Changed how I pitch tired listings to vendors. It's a useful third option when a home needs work before sale.
James W. Real Estate Agent · Auckland Central
Selling felt like a heavy discount or a scary loan. Curb was a third option to talk through.

Questions

Curb introduces you to a financing partner. Your financing partner alone decides whether to approve any facility. Curb is not the lender and does not approve facilities. Renovation coordination may be offered separately, where agreed.
Finance only: we introduce you to a financing partner. You run the renovation. Finance + manage: you tell us what you want — we manage the project and complete the renovation for you. Eligible is an indication only. A financing partner alone decides. Curb does not lend or approve credit.
If approved: no upfront renovation or progress payments from you. $0 upfront is not free — fees and interest may still apply. Typically repaid from sale proceeds at settlement. Indication only — a financing partner must approve.
Where agreed, a caveat may secure the facility against the existing property — only enforced if necessary. If a sale takes longer, terms can be discussed. Not a promise the property will sell.
Approved renovation costs. Typically cosmetic and functional work: paint, kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, landscaping, exterior, and minor structural where equity supports it. Not major builds. A financing partner decides what is approved.
Typically $1,000–$200,000, depending on equity. Combined LVR (existing mortgage + facility ÷ property value) up to 85%. At or below 70% LVR, interest and fees may sit in the facility — or you can choose interest-only. Over 70% LVR: at least interest-only repayments. Indication only — a financing partner alone decides any amount.
No. An existing first mortgage is fine if combined LVR stays at or below 85%. Over 70% LVR: at least interest-only repayments.
If approved, up to 12 months to cover the renovation and sale period.
A financing partner may help cover a deposit on the next home while the existing property is renovated and sold. Not the full purchase of a new property.
Not yet. Currently Auckland-only.
