Property Funding Solutions
Fox Partnerships works with property developers, investors and funds across New Zealand to structure and source the capital they need. Debt, equity and everything in between.
Property is one of New Zealand's most capital-intensive sectors. Getting the structure right matters.
Fox Partnerships provides independent funding solutions for property developers, investors, funds and asset owners across New Zealand. We structure the right capital solution for each transaction and go to market to source it.
That means senior debt, mezzanine, preferred equity, co-investment and wholesale investor capital, from bank and non-bank lenders, private investors and family offices.
We do not represent lenders. We represent our clients.

The Engagement
A disciplined process from first conversation to funded close. We engage early, structure the capital strategy before going to market and manage execution through to settlement.
Engage
We start with the transaction and your objectives, understanding the asset, the timeline and the capital required before any lender is approached.
Structure
We design the right capital solution across senior debt, mezzanine, preferred equity, co-investment and wholesale capital, then prepare the transaction for market.
Source
We go to market across bank and non-bank lenders, private investors, family offices and institutional capital to create competitive tension and secure the best available terms.
Close
We manage negotiation, lender due diligence and execution through to settlement, protecting your position at every stage of the transaction.
