Getting pre-approved before you go coach shopping puts you in a stronger position. You know what you can spend, you can move quickly on the right unit, and you negotiate as a ready buyer rather than a hopeful one.
What does coach finance pre-approval give you?
Pre-approval is an indicative confirmation of how much you may be able to borrow, based on a review of your business and credit profile. It sets a clear budget, speeds up the final approval once you find a coach, and signals to sellers that you are serious. It remains subject to lender criteria and a final assessment of the coach.
What does a broker review for pre-approval?
Expect a look at your ABN and trading history, credit position, existing commitments and the type of coach you are after. Having recent financials or bank statements handy makes the process quicker. Deal with one broker and the panel is compared for you.
How does pre-approval lead to settlement?
Once you choose a coach, the lender confirms the asset and finalises the loan. For how the purchase affects your tax position, check with your accountant or registered tax adviser.
