Eligibility for Boat Loans

To be eligible for personal loans to buy a boat, applicants must be over 18 years of age and provide details that can be verified of their employment, income sources, residential situation, debts and assets and regular expenses. Some of the documents requested include tax returns, bank statements, ID, and similar.

Eligibility for Commercial Marine Finance

To be eligible for commercial marine finance, the operator must hold an ABN and provide financial credentials on the business. Documents required include tax returns, annual accounts, BAS returns, profit and loss statements, bank statements, and similar. The vessel being acquired must be an asset for use in the business which is applying for the credit. Tax deduction eligibility is subject to meeting ATO rulings and guidelines.

How Credit Scores Affect Your Finance Rates

Credit scores and profiles are checked by lenders for all finance applications – personal and business. Good scores and credit history attract better rates. Some lenders will have minimum credit score criteria for approval.

Lender Assessment and Creditworthiness

Approval of the loan amount requested is subject to lender approval. Lenders assess the value of the boat relative to the loan requested and the creditworthiness of the applicant. Lenders do have their own guidelines around maximum and minimum loan amounts within their portfolio.

Eligible Boats for Financing

A wide selection of recreational boats and commercial vessels can be eligible for financing. The boat type, age, model and value are considered by lenders at the quote stage and in assessing applications. A key consideration is the suitability of the boat as collateral for secured loan products.

Comparing and Analysing Quotes for a Boat Loan

Requesting quotes for boat loans is easy – simply click a button online, answer a few basic questions and with many lenders, that is all that is needed. A quote is delivered to your inbox. The next, more difficult step is analysing the quote to ensure it is the right option.

Many boat buyers requiring finance will focus purely on the interest rates from different lenders. The rate is important. We ensure we secure the best rates available with our vast lender market. But in addition to reviewing rates, buyers should pay attention to the loan amount, the loan term, and any special conditions in the loan product.

The loan term can be crucial to the repayments, to the cost of the loan and the overall purchase cost of the boat. A longer term can deliver lower repayments but can result in more interest payable over the entire term. A shorter loan term will mean a higher monthly commitment, but less total interest over the entire term and a lower total outlay for the boat.

We source quotes that suit the individual, with terms negotiated to deliver workable repayment schedules. Our brokers explain every detail of the quote and/or offer, to ensure our customers fully understand the specifics of the loan. Ensuring they can make an informed decision.

Buyers should also consider what is and is not included or allowed in the loan. Many boat buyers will want to purchase extras and accessories. Trailer boat buyers require a boat and a trailer. Some may need boat, trailer and motor. Using our expert services allows buyers the opportunity to have multiple items included in their loan, when purchased concurrently.
