Business Loans

Asset finance is a funding solution that allows businesses and individuals to acquire vehicles, equipment, or machinery without paying the full purchase price upfront. As an asset finance broker, Car Fintech connects you with suitable lenders across Australia who can provide the funding you need. We work with multiple financial institutions to find financing options that match your specific circumstances and requirements. Our role involves assessing your financial situation, understanding your asset needs, and presenting you with appropriate lending solutions. This approach saves you time and effort by eliminating the need to approach multiple lenders individually, while ensuring you have access to a broader range of financing options than you might find on your own.

Car Fintech specialises in arranging finance for a wide variety of assets across different industries and purposes. We can help arrange funding for passenger vehicles, commercial trucks, trailers, motorcycles, boats, caravans, and recreational vehicles. Additionally, we work with clients seeking finance for business equipment such as machinery, tools, and industrial equipment. Whether you're a sole trader looking to purchase your first work vehicle, a growing business expanding your fleet, or an individual wanting to buy a caravan for family holidays, we can connect you with appropriate lenders. Our extensive network of financial partners means we can accommodate various asset types and values, helping both personal and business clients achieve their asset acquisition goals.

The application process begins with an initial consultation where we discuss your asset needs, financial situation, and preferences. We'll gather necessary documentation including identification, income verification, and details about the asset you wish to purchase. Once we have this information, we assess your application and match you with suitable lenders from our network. We then submit your application to selected lenders and manage the communication throughout the approval process. Our team keeps you informed of progress and handles any additional requests from lenders. After approval, we coordinate the settlement process, ensuring all parties are aligned for a smooth transaction. Throughout this process, we act as your advocate, working to secure terms that suit your circumstances while managing the administrative aspects on your behalf.

Generally, once your asset finance is approved, you have flexibility in choosing where to purchase your asset, whether from a dealer, private seller, or auction. However, some lenders may have specific requirements about the age, condition, or type of asset they'll finance. Certain lenders prefer dealing with licensed dealers due to warranty and compliance considerations, while others are comfortable with private sales. Car Fintech will advise you of any restrictions during the application process so you can make informed decisions about where to shop. We can also coordinate with sellers to ensure the purchase and finance settlement process runs smoothly. If you've already found an asset you want to purchase, we'll work with lenders who can accommodate that specific transaction, ensuring the finance terms suit both your needs and the purchase arrangement.

Yes, Car Fintech works with clients across various credit situations, including those with imperfect credit histories. Our extensive network includes lenders who specialise in different risk profiles and credit circumstances. While a poor credit history may limit some options, it doesn't necessarily prevent you from obtaining asset finance. We focus on understanding your current financial situation and the reasons behind any past credit issues. This allows us to present your application effectively to appropriate lenders who may be willing to consider your circumstances. Some lenders may require additional documentation or security, or may offer different terms, but options often remain available. Our role is to find the most suitable lender for your specific situation and work with you to strengthen your application where possible.

The timeframe for asset finance approval varies depending on several factors, including the complexity of your application, the type of asset being financed, and the responsiveness of all parties involved. Generally, straightforward applications with complete documentation can receive approval within 24 to 48 hours. More complex applications or those requiring additional verification may take several days to a week. Business applications often require more time due to the additional financial documentation involved. As your broker, Car Fintech works to expedite the process by ensuring your application is complete and properly presented to lenders from the outset. We also maintain regular communication with lenders to monitor progress and address any queries promptly. Our goal is to secure approval as quickly as possible while ensuring all requirements are properly met.

Working with Car Fintech as your asset finance broker provides several advantages over approaching a single lender directly. We have relationships with multiple lenders across Australia, giving you access to a broader range of products and terms than any single institution offers. This means we can compare options and find solutions that might not be available through direct applications. Our expertise in asset finance means we understand what different lenders look for and can present your application in the most favourable way. We also handle much of the administrative work, saving you time and effort. Additionally, if one lender declines your application, we can quickly approach alternatives without you having to start the process again. Our ongoing relationship means we can provide support throughout the life of your finance arrangement.

Lenders typically require applicants to demonstrate stable income and the ability to service the loan repayments. For individuals, this usually means providing recent payslips, tax returns, and bank statements. Business applicants generally need to supply financial statements, tax returns, and sometimes business activity statements. Most lenders also require valid identification and may request references. The asset itself often serves as security for the loan, so lenders will want details about the vehicle or equipment being financed. Credit history is also considered, though this doesn't necessarily prevent approval if there are explanations for past issues. As a broker, Car Fintech helps you understand what documentation you'll need and works with you to present your application in the most favourable light to potential lenders.

Car Fintech maintains relationships with clients beyond the initial finance settlement. We're available to answer questions about your finance arrangement and can assist if you need to make changes or encounter difficulties during the loan term. If your circumstances change and you need to refinance or upgrade your asset, we can help arrange new finance solutions. We also provide guidance if you're considering early repayment options or need clarification about your loan terms. Should you experience financial hardship, we can liaise with your lender on your behalf to explore available options. Additionally, when you're ready to acquire additional assets or replace existing ones, we're here to assist with new finance arrangements. Our goal is to build lasting relationships with clients, providing ongoing support and expertise for all your asset finance needs throughout Australia.

In most cases, clients don't pay Car Fintech directly for our brokerage services. Instead, we typically receive commission from the lender once your finance is approved and settled. This arrangement means you can access our expertise and services without upfront costs or fees. However, we believe in complete transparency, so we'll always explain our fee structure during your initial consultation. Some specialised services or complex applications may involve additional fees, but these would be clearly discussed and agreed upon before proceeding. Our goal is to help you secure appropriate asset finance while maintaining clear, honest communication about all aspects of the arrangement, including how we're remunerated for our services.
