Pre-Purchase Machinery Loan Options

Arranging finance prior to purchase can be a major advantage when planning to order at Henty Machinery Field Days. Operators can confidently proceed to discuss details with dealers and confirm their order, knowing they have been approved for the loan. This saves time in not having to visit the dealership on a separate occasion after the show when financing has been secured.

We offer a full range of machinery loan products including Leasing, Chattel Mortgage, Rent-to-Own and Commercial Hire Purchase. All are available for applications made before and after a purchase has been made with the same interest rate applicable.

When sourcing finance before purchase, the application is assessed based on the current financials and credit score. Where approval is given, a pre-approved offer may be provided which is valid for a limited time. Giving operators the confidence to order and the reassurance that if they do not proceed to order, any offer simply expires without obligation.

If you do arrive at the Henty Machinery Field Days without finance arranged and you decide to place an order, use our online Equipment Finance Calculator to quickly compare our rates with any other finance you may be offered by a dealer.

Fixed Rate, Fixed Term Equipment Finance

All our machinery loans include our highly competitive fixed rates and are secured over fixed terms. We source the best possible rates from our large lender base to specifically suit the individual profile of the business.

The asset finance market is competitive and rates do vary. If you’re wondering if better rates may be available down the track, consider the outcome from the last Reserve Bank rate decision. With the cash rate held steady by the Reserve Bank at its August meeting, asset finance rates are also expected to remain fairly consistent.

The RBA Board meets again at the end of September, and based on comments from the RBA Governor Michele Bullock, the bank is not ruling out another rate increase if the economic conditions require it.

For anyone considering waiting for rates to be cut to make their equipment purchases, the RBA does not expect inflation to drop to its target level until late 2027. Reading into that, a rate cut would be highly unlikely in the near future.

Non-Asset Loans

A range of providers and suppliers of goods, systems and services will be exhibiting at Henty, items which would not be suited to asset finance facilities. Non-asset goods and business services may be financed with Unsecured Business Loans and Overdrafts. If considering this type of purchase, speak with one of our brokers for the most suitable type of loan.
