Mum and Dad could potentially help with some of the deposit if they have equity in their property.
The more equity you have in your property, the better position you are in when negotiating the costs associated with your loan. I can do this on your behalf.

Are you and or your partner contributing to Kiwisaver? Have you used this towards your first home deposit yet? This could be a source of your deposit (conditions apply).
At rollover time, when your mortgage comes off its fixed term, is the best time to review your loan.
Various lenders have different lending policies, so if your scenario does not fit with your current provider, let me look at alternatives. I have access to a broad range of lenders.
Sometimes adding a small amount of extra payments to your mortgage can take years off the term of your loan and save you thousands (conditions apply).
