Asset Finance is one of the fastest growing finance products in Australia currently, allowing business to grow through the purchase of equipment. Asset Finance can take the form of products like a Hire Purchase, a Finance Lease or other vehicle or equipment loans. The ownership of the equipment purchased may be different depending on the type of Asset Finance utilised, so having our experience to guide you through the process is critical to making the right choice.

Asset Finance can be used to finance vehicles such as cars, utes and vans as well as industrial and agricultural vehicles such as trucks, trailers and buses. Options such as no deposit and not requiring any additional security make it an attractive option to keep cash flow within your business as well as simplify the finance structure. There may also be tax advantages to financing an asset rather than purchasing upfront, however this depends on the scenario and choosing the right loan product.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the typical term for Asset and Equipment Finance?

The most common terms for Asset and Equipment Finance are between 12 months to 60 months. This does vary if the cost of the asset is particularly high and therefore loan terms can stretch to 10 years but this is relatively uncommon.

Can I make extra repayments?

In simple terms, it's usually not a good idea. Even though it puts the contract ahead of the planned repayments, it's unlikely to bring any tax benefits. Also, you can't get back advance payments, like you can with a home loan. And if there's a Direct Debit set up, it might not take out more payments until the contract is due again.

What’s a balloon or residual payment?

A balloon payment refers to a large lump sum payment that is typically made at the end of a loan term. It is commonly associated with loans such as mortgages or car loans. Unlike regular loan payments, which are spread out evenly over the loan term, a balloon payment is much larger and is often necessary to fully pay off the remaining balance of the loan.

Balloon payments are typically used in situations where the borrower wants lower monthly payments throughout the term of the loan, with the understanding that they will need to make a significant final payment. This can be advantageous for borrowers who expect their financial situation to improve over time or who plan to sell the asset before the balloon payment comes due.

However, balloon payments also come with risks. If the borrower is unable to make the balloon payment when it is due, they may be forced to refinance the loan or sell the asset to cover the outstanding balance. Additionally, balloon payments can make it more difficult for borrowers to budget effectively, as they must plan for the large payment at the end of the loan term.
