Michael Anastasiadis works as a registered Mortgage Adviser in Wellington through NZ Financial Services Group Limited, operating out of Bozinoff Mortgages, a boutique, award-winning Mortgage Finance and Insurance Brokerage based in Kilbirnie Plaza, Kilbirnie (FSP Number FSP558426).
Before joining Bozinoff Mortgages in 2017, Michael spent 17 years at Inland Revenue across a range of roles, including Investigations, Compliance & Intelligence, and leadership positions in Business Analysis and Project Management. That background in analysis and compliance now underpins his approach to mortgage advice — thorough, structured, and focused on getting applications right.
Michael works across the full range of home and property finance needs: first home buyers, investment properties and rentals, apartments, business and commercial loans, new builds and land purchases, and fixed rate reviews or refinancing. He deals with all financial institutions, from the main banks through to second and third tier lenders, aiming to build professional relationships that help loan applications move smoothly through approval.
His process centres on two core areas: mortgage planning, where he guides clients through the application process, confirms how much they can borrow, and works through approval letters and conditions from lenders; and mortgage advice, where he reviews a client's overall situation to make sure their mortgage structure suits them, including debt reduction strategies and interest rate negotiation.
Michael brings first-hand property experience to his advice — he has owned multiple houses, owned an investment property, been a landlord, and purchased land to build a new home. That combination of professional expertise and personal experience shapes how he talks clients through their own property decisions.
Michael has been named a NZ Top Adviser in both 2021 and 2022, recognitions awarded through MPA (Mortgage Professional Australia/NZ). He is also featured on MoneyHub's list of Wellington mortgage brokers. His Google review profile shows an "Excellent" rating based on 274 reviews, with clients regularly highlighting his responsiveness, clear communication, and willingness to answer questions at any time, including evenings and weekends.
Michael describes his approach around a set of values: ethical, transparent, straight up, efficient, reliable, and delivering results. He aims to give honest advice and realistic expectations without jargon, keep fees and processes clear, and stay available throughout a client's journey, whether that's a first home purchase, a refinance, or a more complex commercial loan.
He isn't limited to working with Wellington-based clients — he has worked with clients throughout New Zealand and internationally, including current clients based in the UK, France, USA and Australia.
Michael can be reached by phone or email, or through the contact form on his website, to discuss a first home purchase, refinance, investment property, business loan, or new build finance. His services are free to clients in most cases, as he is paid by the banks — any situation requiring a fee is discussed with the client well in advance.
