Chattel mortgage
A chattel mortgage (also known as an equipment loan or a bill of sale) is a loan agreement where the funds are borrowed to purchase equipment or vehicles for commercial purposes. In a chattel mortgage, the equipment is owned by the borrower, and a charge is taken over the financed goods.
While chattel mortgages offer great flexibility, lower interest rates and other economic benefits, they do not come under the National Consumer Credit Protection Act (NCCPA). This means that you may have less power as a customer when disputing unclear terms. You may also come across some chattel mortgage lenders who do not conduct enough credit checks and have you end up taking up a loan that is hard to pay back.
Our position in the industry as experienced financial specialists gives us negotiating power to eliminate these potential risks. We take measures to ensure that you are always financially secure in whatever loan you choose.
Hire purchase
A hire purchase is an agreement in which during the hire period, the financier owns the asset and you are required to pay regular installments. The ownership of the asset is automatically passed to you once the final payment is made.
Novated lease
A novated lease provides the benefit of your monthly repayment being made from your pre-taxed income. It entails an agreement between an employee, their employer, and the finance company. A novation agreement is entered into by all three parties, and responsibility for the lease rental commitment is transferred to the employer during their employment with the company. If the employee leaves the company, the novation agreement is terminated and the ongoing responsibility for the lease returns to the employee.
Operating lease
An operating license (also known as a rental) is an arrangement for business car financing where the financier retains the title and the asset is rented to the borrower, for an agreed term and rental amount.
