Light Doc Machinery Finance
Light Doc finance provides a middle ground between Low Doc and Full Doc lending. Borrowers can often qualify using recent business bank statements and limited supporting documentation, without the need for full financial accounts.
Full Doc Machinery Finance
Full Doc finance is suitable for borrowers who can provide complete financial records and supporting documentation. This option typically offers the most competitive rates and highest borrowing capacity.
Machine loans by type
Machinery Loans for Partnerships — frequently asked questions
Can I get a loan on a new or used partnerships?
Yes — we arrange new and used partnerships loans bought from dealers, private sellers or at auction, with the rate and term matched to the asset.
What interest rate will I get on a machinery loan?
Rates start from 6.55% p.a. for a strong, asset-backed machinery loan and move up with the age of the machine, the term, any deposit and your credit profile. Because we compare a panel of lenders on one application, we quote the sharpest rate you actually qualify for rather than a single bank's rate card.
Can I get a machinery loan without financials (low-doc)?
Yes. For an eligible loan under a lender limit we can arrange a low-doc machinery loan with no tax returns or BAS, on the strength of your ABN age, GST registration and clean credit. It typically needs a 2+ year ABN and sits slightly above a full-doc rate.
Who can apply for a machinery loan?
ABN holders — sole traders, partnerships and companies. Commercial lending to ABN holders sits largely outside consumer credit rules, which usually means a faster, simpler process than a personal loan.
Does enquiring about a machinery loan affect my credit score?
No. The initial enquiry is a soft check only and does not affect your credit score. We only lodge a formal loan application to a lender once you have seen the numbers and told us to proceed.
Do I need a deposit for a machinery loan?
Not always. $0-deposit machinery loans are available for eligible deals, subject to assessment. A deposit or trade-in can help with a newer ABN or an older asset, and it lowers the amount borrowed and your repayments.
What loan terms are available?
Machine loan terms typically run from 1 to 7 years. A longer term lowers the repayment but costs more interest overall; a shorter term costs less interest but repays faster. We help you balance cash flow against total cost.
Can I get a loan on a new or used machine?
Both. We arrange loans for new machines (dealer stock and factory orders) and used machines bought from a dealer, at auction or from a private seller. On a used machine, its age, kilometres and condition can affect the rate and term.
Can I buy from a private seller or at auction with a machinery loan?
Yes. For a private sale the lender verifies ownership and checks the machine is clear of existing finance (a PPSR check) before releasing the loan funds. We manage that process with you.
How does a balloon or residual work on a machinery loan?
A balloon (or residual) is a lump sum set aside to the end of the term. It lowers your regular repayments now, which suits operators who refresh machines every few years — you pay it out, refinance it, or trade in at term end.
How quickly can a machinery loan be approved?
For a straightforward, asset-backed machinery loan we can often come back with an indicative answer the same business day, with conditional approval frequently inside 24 hours, and settlement within a few days once documents are in.
