Questions about business equipment finance
Get in touch and we will help you with any questions you have about business equipment loans and advise on the best approach for your business.
Let us help with your questionsHow much can I borrow for a business equipment loan?
Loan amounts typically range from $5,000 to $500,000+, depending on your business's financial position, credit history, and the equipment's value. We'll assess your situation and help you determine a suitable borrowing amount that aligns with your business needs and repayment capacity.
What types of business equipment loans are available?
The main types are chattel mortgages (equipment loans), finance leases, hire purchase agreements, and novated leases. Each has different ownership structures and potential tax implications. We'll explain the differences and help you choose the option that best suits your business needs and financial strategy.
Do I need a deposit for a business equipment loan?
While some lenders offer no-deposit options, having a deposit can improve your chances of approval and potentially secure better interest rates. We can discuss deposit options and help you find a loan structure that suits your cash flow situation.
How long does it take to get approved for a business equipment loan?
The approval process typically takes 1-3 business days, depending on the complexity of your application and the lender's requirements. We'll provide a clear timeline based on your specific situation and manage the process to avoid delays.
Can I claim tax deductions on my business equipment loan?
Business equipment loans often offer tax advantages. You may be able to claim deductions on interest payments, depreciation, and GST on the purchase. However, tax situations can be complex, so we recommend consulting with your accountant or tax professional for specific advice.
What documentation do I need for a business equipment loan application?
Required documentation typically includes:
- Business financial statements (last 2 years)
- Tax returns (business and personal)
- Bank statements
- ABN/ACN details
- Proof of identity
- Equipment details and quotes
- We'll help you gather all necessary documents to streamline the application process.
Can I get a business equipment loan for used equipment?
Many lenders offer finance for both new and used equipment. The loan terms and interest rates may vary depending on the age and condition of the equipment. We can help you find lenders that specialize in used equipment finance.
What happens if I want to upgrade my equipment before the loan term ends?
Many equipment loans offer flexibility for upgrades. Options may include refinancing the existing loan, adding to the current loan, or trading in the equipment. We can help you structure a loan that allows for future upgrades to keep your business competitive.
Are there any government incentives for business equipment purchases?
The Australian government occasionally offers tax incentives for business equipment purchases, such as instant asset write-offs. These incentives can change, so we recommend checking the latest information on the ATO website or consulting with your tax professional.
How does equipment financing compare to using a business line of credit?
Equipment financing is typically secured by the equipment itself, often resulting in lower interest rates compared to unsecured credit lines. It also keeps your other credit lines open for operational expenses. We can help you compare these options based on your specific business needs and financial situation.

We were introduced to Chrystal and Attain Loans by a mutual colleague and we are very pleased that we were. Chrystal is an absolute finance whizz and a diamond of a lady. She is thorough, professional, patient, 'on your side', and will work her hardest to get the job done for you.We are pleased to have met Chrystal and have her setup our home loan and finances for us, and we will continue to work with Chrystal for any of our finance needs in the future.

Chrystal Evans, Director & Mortgage Broker at Attain was truly a lifesaver. In a stressful time where I needed assistance and some advice, Chrystal was this and more for me. Her knowledge of the banks, packages, fees etc. and advice was excellent, giving me confidence while also making everything really easy. Lastly her follow-up and communications were solid, I would highly recommend Chrystal. Also, after trying to negotiate an interest rate after coming off a fixed rate with my bank, where I was told they couldn't help me and spoke with 3 different people with wait times on the phone, I will not deal with a big bank again and only with Chrystal/Attain.

Chrystal is very thorough and assisted us through the whole process, from finding the best loan to ensuring everything was in line and ready for settlement day. We will definitely utilise Chrystal’s expertise for our next property purchase and highly recommend Chrystal and Attain Loans.

Suzanne McHugh
Chrystal was fantastic, she took the time to help us urgently obtain finance after not getting any help directly from the banks. She was very informative, was able to explain all the details. We would not have been able to have a successful bid without her help.
Luke Applebee
Thanks to the incredibly hard-working team at Attain (Chrystal and Pam) we were able to settle literally days before Christmas last year in our first home.At every step of the home buying journey we were well informed and felt like our interests were always the top priority. It was a stressful time for us to keep up with the paperwork and everything however Attain did a superb job at keeping us on track (and sane). If you have no idea where to begin if you're looking at purchasing a home, I highly recommend giving Attain a call.Excellent customer service and ongoing support. We have recommended Attain to family and friends, too. Absolutely impressive team. Can't thank them enough.

Chrystal, Pam and the team at Attain loan & morgage services are the best brokers in business. They literally held our hands throughout the whole process of our home loan. And we were not easy customers! They went above and beyond to help us get the best outcome in the process of attaining our first family home. Their attitude, customer service and professionalism was second to none. Couldn't recommend this company more!They literally did all the HARD work for us and made the process stress free :) Thanks Team!!Jessica Winter

I have had the pleasure of working with Chrystal who helped to get my home loan approval. This women went out of her way to help me above and beyond my expectations, I was so ready to give up on a few occasions but she wasn't going to let me and I could not thank her enough for all of her efforts. I am now in my own home thanks to Chrystal and her team, I would always recommend her service, its like no other :).

I've been using Attain Loans for years. Each time Chrystal has helped us get the loan through, being a small business can be tricky sometimes but Chrystal never gives up and always gets a result. I would give her a higher score if I could :)
Rebecca Smith
Excellent communication throughout entire process. Second time we have obtained finance through Chrystal and would use her again.
Jessica Joy
I cannot recommend Attain Loan & Mortgage Services enough. As a first home buyer I was nervous with very limited knowledge of how the entire loan process worked. Chrystal made it absolutely seamless and took all of the stress out for me.12 months on, they assisted me with my first re-finance and again were there for me every step of the way.I couldn't be happier and wouldn't trust anyone else!Thankyou so much!
Gary Capeling
My wife and I were in a vendor finance agreement and due to some financial hardship issues brought about by the Covid pandemic not looking like we would ever be able to get ahead. The team at Attain Loans helped steer us in the right direction to be able to finally have a mortgage of our own and also clear up our debts and hopefully repair our credit issues. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to just refinance or that is in a similar boat to us!10 out of 10 for these guys!

If it's a no fuss, simple process you're after - then Chrystal is your go to! As a first home buyer I was totally out of my league, everything was foreign. Chrystal quickly established a rapport and from the beginning I felt secure in her expertise and genuine interest to help me realise my goals. Whenever there were things that I wasn't quite sure about, Chrystal jumped in and took the reins without hesitation. When investing in one of the biggest purchases in your lifetime, having someone you trust at the helm is everything! Chrystal is that someone. Her easy going nature coupled with the depth of knowledge, experience and professionalism is second to none! I can't recommend her highly enough. Appreciate your support solution oriented outlook Chrystal. Thank you so much!Whakamānawatia koe, ka tika!Nāku noaTrishBrisbane, QLD
