979 33 100 000 2 003 79 2 100 19 2 199 26 who qualifies for the best equipment finance rates here are some factors lenders generally consider when determining your equipment finance interest rate 1 the type of equipment you re financing interest rates are generally lower if you re financing primary equipment with high resale demand like forklifts earth moving equipment and trucks tertiary equipment with limited resale demand e g cool rooms spray booths tends to fetch higher rates lenders may charge a 2 6 loading on this type of equipment example interest rates on different types of business equipment equipment loan amount 10 000 20 000 primary equipment 13 50 secondary equipment 14 00 tertiary equipment 16 50 equipment loan amount 20 001 50 000 primary equipment 11 00 secondary

001 150 000 9 25 9 50 14 50 150 001 8 75 9 00 13 50 please note these are example rates from one lender only and may not be indicative of the rate you d pay 2 whether it s new or used equipment equipment finance rates are generally lower if you buy new business equipment or showroom models secondhand or used equipment will be subject to higher rates according to money com au s analysis lenders usually offer financing for yellow goods construction and farming equipment that are up to 20 years old for vehicles and general commercial equipment the age limit is usually 12 15 years old 3 your business revenue trading history from a lender s perspective established businesses with a higher annual turnover and a long trading history are typically considered less risky and will generally benefit from lower interest rates when financing equipment businesses with an annual turnover of less than 1 million will typically pay a higher interest rate than businesses with a revenue over 5 million for example 4 your business assets debts lenders will typically evaluate your business revenue and expenditure plus your balance sheet they will look at your current debts and other financial obligations relative to your business assets and income generally speaking having fewer debts relative to your business income can qualify you for a better interest rate and also means you could borrow a higher amount 5 your personal business credit profile during the application process lenders will check your business credit score and the credit rating of your company directors they want to see a history of responsible credit management having a good credit score will qualify you for a lower rate and vice versa based on our analysis of various business lending criteria lenders generally look for a minimum director credit score of 500 600 and a minimum company credit score of 475 500 6 whether it s a dealer auction or private sale interest rates are generally lower if you buy equipment via a licensed dealership or showroom as you typically get a statutory warranty a warranty that covers defects on goods with the purchase on the other hand lenders tend to charge higher rates for equipment purchased through a private sale or at auction some lenders may apply a 0 50 1 rate loading on those purchases additionally some lenders will only allow certain types of equipment to be purchased privately or at auction namely primary equipment 7 whether you re a homeowner business borrowers who own a home or residential property in australia generally qualify for lower interest rates compared to renters homeowners are asset backed borrowers who are considered less risky from a lender s perspective that s because they may be able to borrow against their home equity to settle their outstanding debt compare equipment finance options there are two main types of equipment finance for business equipment loans and equipment leases equipment loan with an equipment loan or chattel mortgage you borrow money from a lender to buy business equipment or machinery the equipment is collateral for the loan which you repay with interest over a fixed term similar to a mortgage your business owns the equipment from the start and is responsible for all upkeep costs however the lender can repossess it if you default on your repayments during the finance term once you ve fully paid off the loan you ll own the equipment outright i e there will be no security interest on it and it cannot be reclaimed if there s a balloon payment at the end of the finance term you ll have a couple of options pay the residual balloon and choose whether to retain or sell the equipment refinance the balloon amount into a new loan with a new interest rate and continue paying it off in regular instalments trade in your equipment under a new finance agreement and pay the outstanding balloon amount as part of the trade in process equipment lease financing equipment through a lease gives you use of the equipment for a set period of time in return for lease payments but your business doesn t own the equipment during the lease term there are two types of equipment lease agreements 1 finance lease under a finance lease the lender buys the equipment on your behalf and leases it to you in exchange for regular payments and interest over a fixed period maintenance and servicing costs may be included in the finance or your business may be responsible for upkeep costs at the end of the finance lease term you ll have the option to purchase the equipment from the lender by making a final residual balloon payment alternatively you ll have the option to pay the residual amount and return the equipment at the end of the lease term refinance the residual amount into a new lease agreement trade in your equipment for an upgrade under a new finance agreement you could use the proceeds from the trade in to pay the balloon payment a finance lease is a longer term finance option commonly used for high value equipment or equipment with a longer lifespan like vehicles heavy machinery and yellow goods 2 operating lease under an operating lease your business can lease equipment in exchange for fixed regular repayments including all upkeep costs you can generally upgrade the equipment within the lease period but there s no ownership option at the end typically you ll have two options at the end of an operating lease term return the equipment it is then usually sub let or sold to a third party renew the equipment lease under new terms an operating lease is a shorter term finance commonly used for equipment that needs to be upgraded frequently such as it equipment security hardware point of sale pos systems etc equipment loan vs equipment lease compared type of equipment finance pros cons equipment loan repayments are fixed over the loan term you own the equipment from the outset interest on the loan gst and depreciation may be tax deductible the lender can reclaim the equipment if you default on the loan early payout fees may apply the balloon if applicable is not tax deductible finance lease repayments are fixed over the lease term option of full ownership at the end of the finance term lease payments including gst may be tax deductible over the lease term your business is responsible for all upkeep costs of the equipment during the contract you ll pay almost the entire value of the equipment along with interest making it an expensive option leases are non cancellable contracts may be difficult to terminate operating lease maintenance and running costs are included in repayments it s easier to cancel an operating lease lease payments including gst may be tax deductible over the lease term no option to own the equipment at the end of the lease term you must renew the lease to continue using the equipment once the contract period ends no potential gains from asset appreciation since you never own the equipment ready to compare equipment finance options get your best offers from multiple lenders there s no obligation and checking your rates won t impact your credit score get started get started how to apply for equipment finance 1 compare equipment finance rates lenders consider comparing indicative rates fees and features from different lenders the best way to do that is via a finance broker as they ll be able do it on your behalf without impacting your credit keep in mind that your personalised rate will generally be different to the lender s advertised rate it will be unique to your business credit profile it may also be worth comparing customer reviews for different lenders to see how satisfied their customers are 2 prepare your documentation your lender will request some financial documents to verify your business revenue generally they will ask for six to 12 months of business bank statements bas statements and or tax returns remember that the higher your loan amount the more information you ll need to provide to the lender if you re borrowing more than 150 000 some lenders may require that your financials be prepared by an accountant 3 submit your equipment finance application most lenders have an online application portal you can use you ll be asked some standard questions like how much you want to borrow your preferred loan term and what type of equipment you re purchasing including age make and model then the lender will likely inquire about your business income history and activities 4 speak to a lending specialist if you meet the preliminary requirements a lending specialist may call you to discuss your application this is when they ll likely discuss the terms and conditions of the product s they offer to ensure you get the right equipment finance for your business needs 5 the lender will check your credit score your lender will conduct a credit check through one of the main credit bureaus in australia e g equifax experian illion this will provide a summary of your credit history including how you ve handled previous debts and whether you ve had any late or missed payments and defaults in the last few years if the lender is satisfied with your credit report you ll progress to the final stage of the application process 6 get your equipment finance application approved if you haven t yet found the equipment you want to buy the lender may grant you pre approval this means you re approved in principle to borrow a certain sum before you actually purchase the equipment you ll need to sign a contract to purchase and provide registration paperwork for the equipment before you can get unconditional approval should you get equipment finance with a balloon payment you can typically include a balloon payment as part of your loan or lease depending on the equipment you re buying and your lender a balloon payment is a residual lump sum you pay at the end of the finance term to clear the remaining debt on the equipment it can range from 20 40 of your loan or lease amount depending on how you structure your finance with the lender with a balloon payment your monthly repayments will be lower but you ll pay more interest overall that s because you ll effectively pay interest on the full balloon payment amount over the entire loan term instead of paying down the full loan amount gradually top 5 industries requesting equipment finance
