Objective
Objectives or reasons for refinancing are typically to achieve a better interest rate, changes to the terms and repayments, or easing of strict loans conditions which are hampering the operation.
We’re specialists in heavy vehicle financing and know very well the process of change for business, and how rates and the lending market fluctuate. Key targets and objectives, circumstances, market demand, and economic conditions can all change over time.

We assist operators to achieve a funding outcome that does meet their current requirements with our specialist truck refinance services. A streamlined process where our expert brokers handle the loan sourcing, negotiating, and structuring to target specific goals.
The process of refinancing a truck loan is essentially quite basic – it involves replacing the current funding contract with a new finance arrangement that targets specific objectives.

Refinancing truck loans can be with the same or a different lender and with the same or a different credit facility. Approval, rates, terms and conditions are based on the current credit score and financials of the business operation.
While benefits can be realised, there are costs and considerations to be taken into account. The rate offered will be based on used truck loan interest rates; lender exit costs apply; new loan establishment fees apply; and the vehicle needs to meet lender criteria as suitable collateral.
The new refinanced loan aims to encompass the total pay-out cost of the existing loan plus lender charges on the new loan.
With your Jade broker handling the process, you will be taken through each step and provided with a full explanation of the upsides and any downsides. The final decision to proceed is yours.

When refinancing a truck loan, operators may choose to have the new loan with the same or a different commercial credit facility. We provide the full range of products – Lease, Rent-to-Own, Chattel Mortgage and Commercial Hire Purchase. These facilities can suit refinancing where the vehicle is accepted as suitable collateral. Where the vehicle is not considered acceptable loan security, we can source quotes and offers on versatile Unsecured Business Loans.
When arranging refinancing with secured credit facilities, we source the lowest fixed interest rates from across our vast lender base, ensure a fixed term, and a fixed repayment schedule. Refinancing allows for balloons, residuals, and buybacks and all features, including the relevant tax deductions, can be realised.

Our streamlined finance application process simplifies what can be a complex and confusing process. To refinance a truck loan, operators will need to complete the commercial credit application form which includes providing documentation on the current financial position of the business. Current credit scores and history will be reviewed by lenders.
Our broker contacts your existing lender for a pay-out figure on the current truck loan. This figure will typically be covered in the refinanced loan. Lenders will be assessing the value of the vehicle as used goods, against the amount requested, when approving loan limits.
We will then source the right lender, best rates and best quote for the refinancing. Interest rates on truck refinance are based on rates for used vehicles, even where the vehicle was new when originally purchased and financed.
The offer is presented to our customer for consideration, with no obligation. Where we consider there is no benefit to be gained from refinancing, we do not recommend proceeding. But the final decision is with the customer.
When our offer is accepted, we handle settlement. That involves finalising the loan with the existing lender and the new loan with the new or the same lender. The entire process is handled swiftly, professionally and with the key objective to obtain a better outcome for our customer.

Knowing whether or not refinancing truck loans is the right move for your operation requires consideration of numerous factors. Reviewing the current position of the business and whether or not a change to the truck financing will improve that position.
An important consideration is that the vehicle will be assessed for suitable collateral and for interest rates, as a used vehicle. There are also the costs incurred with finalising an existing loan prior to the end of a fixed term to be considered. These will need to be covered in the loan total along with the new lender charges. The loan total required may be higher than anticipated.
If the existing loan was secured as a No Doc, Low Doc or bad credit loan, and circumstances for the operator have improved considerably over the first few years of a finance agreement, the prospects for an improved finance arrangement may be exceptionally good. Allowing the operator to develop the business with more affordable funding.
Refinancing a balloon can be a very cost-effective move compared with covering the amount payable from existing cash reserves. Allowing potential tax benefits and better cash flow planning moving forward. Changing a loan term through refinancing can either free up assets under finance earlier which may allow greater capacity to take on new credit to purchase new assets.
