Car & Asset Finance — how it works

Car and equipment finance is where borrowers most often accept the first offer, because it is presented at the moment of purchase. Dealer and broker finance are both commission-based; the difference is whether the whole market was compared.

For a business, the structure matters as much as the rate. A chattel mortgage, a lease and a rental have different balance sheet and tax treatment, and that is a conversation for your accountant. We arrange whichever structure they recommend.

What we look at

What you get from a broker here

🚗

Compared, not accepted

The dealer’s offer benchmarked against a panel before you sign.

🚗

Personal or business

Cars, utes, trucks, trailers, plant and equipment.

🚗

Chattel mortgage, lease or rental

Different treatment for a business. Your accountant chooses; we arrange it.

🚗

Balloon payments, explained

A balloon lowers the repayment and raises the total. We show both figures.

🚗

New, used or private sale

Including private sales, which some lenders will not touch.

🚗

Quick turnaround

Asset finance moves faster than property lending — often days.

The process

Four steps, start to settlement

Tell us the asset

What you are buying, from whom, and roughly when.

We compare the panel

Rate, fees, term and balloon, benchmarked against the dealer offer.

Approval

Usually quick where the file is complete.

Settlement direct

Funds paid to the dealer or seller and the asset is yours.

Before you start

FAQ

Car & Asset Finance — your questions

Is dealer finance a bad deal?
Not automatically, and it is rarely the sharpest. It is priced for convenience at the point of sale. Comparing costs you very little and occasionally saves a great deal.
What is a chattel mortgage?
A business finance structure where you own the asset from the outset and the lender takes security over it. It has particular GST and depreciation treatment, which is a question for your accountant.
What is a balloon payment?
A lump sum owed at the end of the term. It lowers your monthly repayment and increases what you pay overall, and it has to be paid or refinanced when it falls due.
Can I finance a private sale?
Some lenders allow it with additional checks on the seller and the asset. Others only fund dealer purchases. It narrows the panel rather than closing it.
Can I finance equipment as well as vehicles?
Yes — plant, machinery, fit-out and commercial equipment are all financeable, personally or through a business.
