A Chattel Mortgage is the most common loan type for businesses looking to purchase movable personal property, such as a new or used vehicle. As the borrower, you take ownership of the asset at the outset, which secures the loan the same way as a secured car loan. This arrangement, known as security agreements, allows the lender to take possession of the chattel mortgage if needed. Businesses use chattel mortgages because they offer flexibility with 1-7 year loan terms and the asset can be used as a taxable offset.
Another flexible option is Hire Purchase or Commercial Hire Purchase. This involves ‘hiring’ an asset with the intent to purchase it by the end of the loan term. During the loan term, the lender owns the asset, providing different tax offsets since it’s not an asset owned by the business. Commonly known as an instalment plan, you make an initial down payment and the ownership is not officially transferred until you pay off the balance plus interest.
Low Doc, No Doc, Self Dec, or Lite Doc loans are ideal for borrowers who wish to apply without the need for extensive financial documentation. This low documentation or no-documentation loan relies on the assessment of your business tenure, you as the borrower, guarantor’s financial position, and the asset being purchased. It’s perfect for businesses with little or no ‘provable’ servicing, i.e., capability to prove their ability to repay through profit and loss statement, business activity statement, or sales/revenue passing through business books.

At Finance Ezi, we offer business car loan terms that range from 1 to 7 years. The length of your term depends on the repayment amount you can comfortably handle and the lifespan of the asset you’re financing. If you’re purchasing a used vehicle, the term might be shorter based on the vehicle’s age.
While chattel mortgages and hire purchases share similarities, they differ in terms of ownership. Under a chattel mortgage, you, the purchaser, become the owner. On the other hand, under a finance lease or hire purchase agreement, the bank or lender retains ownership.
While a poor credit history could reduce your chances of securing a business car loan, it doesn’t necessarily disqualify you altogether. Speak with one of our business lending specialists at Finance Ezi to explore how we can assist you in obtaining a business car loan.

The decision to lease or finance a vehicle depends on your business needs, financial situation, and long-term plans. Leasing can offer lower monthly payments and the flexibility to upgrade vehicles more frequently, while financing with the intention of ownership might be more cost-effective in the long run.
A balloon payment is a large, lump sum payment due at the end of a loan, after all regular monthly repayments have been made. Loans structured with a balloon payment typically have lower monthly payments throughout the loan, but result in a larger sum due at the end. This setup can make the loan more manageable on a month-to-month basis but requires planning for the final payment.
While a balloon payment can lower your monthly repayments, it generally increases the total amount of interest paid over the life of the loan compared to a loan without a balloon payment. Without a balloon payment, your monthly repayments would be higher, but you would pay less interest overall and would not have a large sum to pay at the end of the loan term.
A secured car loan requires you to use your new vehicle as collateral. This means if you fail to make your monthly repayments on your b business car loan, the lender has the right to repossess your vehicle to recover the loan amount.
On the other hand, an unsecured business car loan does not require any collateral. However, unsecured loans often come with higher interest rates due to the increased risk to the lender. The choice between a secured and unsecured business car loan depends on your individual circumstances, including your financial situation and risk tolerance.

Yes, business vehicle loans can offer tax benefits, but the specifics depend on the type of finance you choose and your business circumstances.
Chattel Mortgage: The interest on the loan payments and the depreciation of the vehicle can be tax-deductible. Additionally, if you’re registered for GST, you may be able to claim the GST on the vehicle purchase price.
Hire Purchase: As the vehicle is considered an asset of the lender during the loan term, you may be able to claim tax deductions on the interest and the depreciation of the vehicle.
Low Doc Loan: Tax deductions are typically available on the interest of the loan payments and the depreciation of the vehicle.
It’s important to get your own independent tax advice from a financial advisor or accountant to understand how these tax deductions apply to your specific business car loan and to ensure compliance with tax laws
