For operators considering an upgrade to their line haul vehicles—those operating A or B-doubles and dog trailers—the Australian market offers a rich array of high-quality options. While the vehicles themselves boast reliability and top-tier performance features, the realization of their potential advantages hinges significantly on the acquisition being facilitated through pragmatic and cost-effective truck loans. The absence of such workable financing solutions could ultimately jeopardize the full realization of anticipated returns and benefits, regardless of the inherent qualities of the chosen vehicle.
To achieve the optimum outcome from a commercial heavy vehicle purchase, equal consideration should be given to selection of both the vehicle and truck loans lender and product. Just as the features of different makes and models can vary, so can the offerings, benefits and services provided by truck finance lenders.
Our position as a broker-style lender provides Jade Truck Loans with many advantages and benefits for customers when compared with sourcing finance themselves directly. Advantages such as access to a wider selection of lenders including specialist non-bank lenders that only deal through a select network of brokers. For time-poor business owners who make their first and sometimes only call when finance is required to their bank, our service is a massive benefit.
Add to that the ability to source better interest rates and selection of lender to at least request a quote from becomes clearer. Not so easily determined may be the specific truck to purchase.

Finance Options
Regardless of the make or model of truck selected, buyers have the same choice of truck loan products to finance their purchase. The choice can be made between Truck Chattel Mortgage, Truck Leasing, Commercial Hire Purchase and Rent to Own. The interest rates vary across the selection of loan products, but this should not form the sole reason for finance selection. The full package of benefits offered by a particular loan product to a specific operation should be considered.
While the choice will depend on aspects of the business especially the accounting methods, Chattel Mortgage is extremely popular at the moment due to its suitability for those looking to take advantage of temporary full expensing tax measures.
