Newgate Capital has been established to offer the property market a flexible non-bank financing option.
We have seen how the demise of many finance companies during the Global Financial Crisis has significantly impacted the New Zealand property market. With fewer non-bank financing options, it has meant property investors and developers have limited options if the bank says no.
Our ambition is to help change this and enable our clients to achieve their goals.
We pride ourselves at Newgate on what you see is what you get. There is no marble, trendy white furniture or sea views that you pay for. We want to keep things simple, be up front with our clients and enjoy an open and transparent relationship.
We are simply three guys that have known each other for a long time, trust each other and have complimenting skill sets.


Simon Rowntree and James Brown established and created the Tournament Parking business from ground up. That business was the backbone for them building their own property investment portfolio, giving them a strong background in both business management and property. Their investment in Newgate Capital Limited is part of their wider investment portfolio that enables them to contribute back into an industry they understand and appreciate.

Jared has had a 19 year banking career specialising in the property market. His last role was as Head of Business Development and Structuring for the property finance unit of ASB. During his 3 years at ASB he was awarded the top lending prize for all 3 years, setting and breaking his own records in all key measures. His success can largely be attributed to his commitment to service and delivering results for his clients. (for the full corporate profile of Jared please click here)
We sit in the same office and make the decisions ourselves. This means we can respond and move quickly to our clients’ needs.
We are not going to pretend we can do all things for all people. We are however committed to being transparent, timely and if we can’t assist, providing feedback on how best to make the transaction work.
We are confident you will find our approach a breath of fresh air.
We encourage you to contact us to see how we can help.
