“No matter how many clients I have, I make sure to call each one personally every quarter. It’s a chance to not only update them on their portfolio, but also check on how they’re doing personally”

For over a decade, Manshil Krishna has built a reputation for his unwavering dedication to supporting customers, particularly during challenging times of high interest rates and stringent lending criteria.
As director and senior financial adviser at Benchmark Mortgages, Manshil prides himself on providing valuable guidance to help clients navigate the difficulties associated with high mortgage repayments. His commitment to creatively structuring mortgages to help them save money and maintain low costs has earned him recognition as one of NZA’s inaugural Top 25 Brokers.
Establishing the brokerage during a tough market in 2023 is among Manshil’s most significant achievements, especially considering its strong start in the first year and continuing success afterwards.
“Witnessing clients’ excitement in purchasing their first home or assisting property investors in building their portfolio made me thrilled to be part of their journey,” he says. “This experience ignited a passion, leading me to further assist customers in areas such as construction finance and development funding.”
Despite challenges in the current economic climate, Manshil and his team remain dedicated to their customers’ best interests. They overcome obstacles by having the necessary robust conversations with clients so they can make informative decisions based on up-to-date knowledge.
Manshil and his team are on a mission to become a leading mortgage advisory firm in New Zealand. With a year of remarkable growth on the books, they have set their sights on expansion to assist more first-time homebuyers in achieving their dream of home ownership by providing personalised advice.
They also aim to support more investors in expanding their property portfolios by offering creative solutions tailored to the current lending climate. A proactive approach to communication and relationship-building is also prioritised, as the team regularly shares relevant industry news with their clientele.
Exceeding client expectations is paramount. The team takes the time to understand customers’ needs from the first conversation, and then follows through with delivering world-class services. Manshil achieves this through prompt responses, innovative solutions, and in-depth discussions about clients’ mortgages and the broader economic landscape.
