Check If Your Home Qualifies

Answer a few quick questions and I'll tell you exactly what you'd pay for a heat pump after the Warmer Kiwi Homes grant.

Question 1 of 4 0% complete
Question 1
Do you own and live in the home?
The grant is for owner-occupiers only. Renters and landlords are not eligible for the heating grant.
Question 2
Was your home built before 2008?
Most Mt Eden villas, bungalows and older homes qualify. If you're not sure, check your LIM report or ask when he visits.
Question 3
Do you have a Community Services Card or SuperGold Combo card?
Card holders get the maximum grant regardless of where they live in Central Auckland. If you don't have a card, your street still might qualify by area.

Not sure if your street qualifies? Check your address on the EECA website in about 2 minutes.

You might not hit every box, but the rules can be flexible depending on your specific street or situation. The EECA maps work on individual meshblocks, not whole suburbs. Plenty of streets that don't look low-income on paper still qualify.

You can check your address yourself on the EECA eligibility checker. If it says you qualify, get in touch and my Mt Eden specialist will take it from there.
