The True Cost of Finance - Experience Matters
Our Commercial Equipment Finance Broker has been helping business owners In Melbourne and throughout regional Victoria, access the equipment they need for more than 25 years.
Equipment Finance is complex, and mistakes are expensive to unwind. There is no substitution for experience.
While interest rates are important, it is the total cost of the finance over the term that matters.
Often seemingly attractive interest rates are offset by:
- Additional fees and charges
- The loan structure including a large Balloon payment, which means you may more interest over the term
- The equipment being an unpopular model or superseded
- A short term which means repayments cause cashflow pain
We will help you avoid the “Headline Interest Rate Trap” and access finance that is truly cost effective over the term.

Choose the Right Product - Avoid Expensive Mistakes
Because mistakes are costly to unwind, it is important to choose the right product at the outset.
The options include:
- Chattel Mortgage
- Machinery Lease
- Equipment Rental (ideal for fleets, equipment that depreciates quickly, or requires regular updates)
The key differences include:
- Chattel Mortgage or Machinery Lease – you own the asset and enjoy the GST, depreciation and tax benefits*
- Equipment Rental – You rent the asset and claim the rental*
(*In both instances what you can claim will be driven by the extent the asset is used for business purposes)
The Right Structure to Prevent Cash Flow Pain
The importance of the correct Loan structure cannot be overstated. For too often, finance is put in place without thought being given to the impact of repayments on the business’s cash flow.
Our Commercial Equipment Finance Broker will ensure:
- Repayments are tailored to your cash flow
- Where needed, seasonality is taken into account
- Sufficient time is allowed for installation and commissioning before repayments commence
- Balloon Payments are correctly structured to minimise the potential for negative equity at the end of the contract
