A mortgage or loan may be acquired by:
the sole owner of a Māori land block
all the owners of a Māori land block acting together
the trustees of a Māori land block who are empowered to raise finance against the block, or
a Māori Incorporation which holds Māori land.
To transfer Māori incorporation shares, the transferor (the
person transferring the shares) must file a transfer of shares
form (form 5 of the Māori Incorporations Constitution
Regulations 1994) with the secretary of the Māori
incorporation.
In these cases, the family or personal
representative needs to approach the
incorporation secretary directly.

Before 1 July 1993, Māori incorporation

In these cases, the family or personal
representative needs to approach the
incorporation secretary directly.
Entitlement to succession
