What Equipment Finance options are there?
We offer 4 equipment loan options to ensure our customers are offered a comprehensive loan solution. In most cases, a chattel mortgage is used to secure finance against the asset being purchased. A chattel mortgage is when an asset or 'chattel' is purchased and used as security for finance 'the mortgage'. Both the age of the business ABN and whether financials are available determines the type of business loan. If the asset is not able to be secured against a loan, usually due to age, we offer a business line of credit facility.
1. No Doc Equipment Finance
For businesses who are at least 2 years ABN and GST registered whose director/s are homeowners, with previous credit history. Income does not need to be verified with documentation. However, you will need to sign a declaration stating an estimate of net profit and gross turnover.
2. Low Doc Equipment Finance
For business who are at least 2 years ABN and GST registered. Minimal documentation, such as interim figures, are a requirement to prove income. This could be in the form of BAS, bank statements, accountants’ letter or profit and loss statement from accountancy software such as XERO or MYOB.
3. Full Doc Equipment Finance
For business who are less than 1-year ABN. Full proof of income is a requirement for this type of loan. This may be an up-to-date tax return and/or interim figures.
4. Business line of credit
This type of business facility provides an ongoing line of credit to a predetermined amount. A line of credit is helpful when an asset is older than lender requirements. Most lenders want the age of the asset to be less than 15 years old at the end of the loan term. So, if you are looking at a 15-year-old bulldozer chances are that you will not be able to use the asset as security for the loan. A simple business line of credit facility could be the solution.
