Frequently asked questions

Asset Finance Australia FAQs.

What assets can be financed?

Eligible vehicles, trucks, plant, machinery and business equipment may be considered. Acceptable age, type, supplier and use vary by lender.

Is asset finance secured?

Usually the financed asset supports the facility, and a security interest may be registered on the PPSR. Guarantees or additional security can also be required.

What is a balloon or residual?

It is an amount left for the end of the term. It can reduce regular repayments but increases the final obligation and total risk, so it should match expected asset value and cash flow.

Can second-hand equipment be financed?

Sometimes. Lenders assess age, condition, valuation, supplier, remaining useful life and resale market. A PPSR search and inspection may be required.

Does LVR apply to equipment finance?

Equipment facilities are usually assessed against asset value, deposit, age, borrower strength and lender advance rates rather than a property LVR headline.

Is tax advice included?

No. Different structures can have different GST, depreciation and tax consequences. Obtain advice from a qualified accountant before choosing a structure.
