The Challenge

Fundmaster is an Auckland mortgage and financial advisory firm based in Epsom, competing in a category where the top three results for "mortgage broker Auckland" are held by national brokers with six-figure marketing budgets. Local-intent searches like "mortgage broker Epsom" and "home loan advisor Auckland" were being answered by national brands with little local relevance.

Strengthening the technical foundation was the opportunity to let every content push perform, alongside claiming the suburb-level commercial queries that drive appraisal-ready leads. The goal was a defensible local SEO position won on relevance rather than spend.

Our Solution

  • Audit the technical foundation first, resolving crawl issues, cleaning up redirect chains, and rebuilding the site architecture around advisor services and suburb-level landing pages.
  • Target long-tail, buyer-intent queries the national brokers were ignoring, including first home buyer guides, refinancing calculators, and Epsom-specific market commentary.
  • Build backlinks through local business associations, financial-advice directories, and contextual mentions in NZ property publications.
  • Anchor the strategy on "mortgage broker Epsom", the commercial phrase that drives appraisal-ready leads in the firm's catchment.
  • Sustain coverage across a long tail of first-home-buyer and refinancing queries.
