A Commercial Loan is a loan facility used to purchase assets such as equipment, machinery, vehicles and property.
Commercial loans differ from other financing options as the ownership of the asset remains with the customer.
The financier will take a Bill of Sale or Mortgage over the asset to protect its interests. Residual/Balloon payments are also available.
Potential taxation advantages and obligations differ between commercial loans and other financing options such as leases. Considerations relating to GST and interest deductions need to be explored. Appropriate financial advice through your accountant or financial advisor is strongly recommended to determine whether a commercial loan is the most appropriate option for your circumstances.*
* Applications for credit are subject to the financier’s normal credit assessment criteria. Fees or charges may apply. Full details of all product terms and conditions are available upon request.
