Mortgage brokers (also known as mortgage advisers) offer financial advice to people wanting to buy a house or property and help them apply for a home loan. Pay varies with experience, qualifications, the number of clients an adviser has, and whether income includes commission.

According to the government careers service Tahat奴, mortgage brokers most commonly earn $64,000 to $134,000 a year, with pay starting around $50,000 and rising to about $185,000 for the most experienced advisers. A New Zealand Certificate in Financial Services (Level 5) is the qualification listed for entry to this role.

To provide regulated financial advice you also need to be registered on the Financial Service Providers Register, and to hold, or be engaged to operate under, a Financial Advice Provider (FAP) licence.
