Mining Finance - Frequently Asked Questions

Why use Heavy Vehicle Finance for Mining Equipment Finance and not a major bank?

  • We are a niche financier of Mining Equipment Finance and can source funding from both mainstream and private funders giving our customers access to capital like never before
  • Our turnaround times are often quicker than the large financial institutions. Major banks often have complex staffing or departmental structures that could result in your application going through too many sets of hands before your approval is given or settlement occurs
  • Given that we only offer Mining Equipment Finance, our team has extensive knowledge of Equipment Loans and all types of Heavy Machinery. This means we can get our head around your proposal better than other lenders, that might only have expertise in Home Loans, Commercial Property Loans, Personal Loans or Car Loans
  • Our customers are assigned a dedicated Relationship Manager whereby they can directly talk to the person handling their application. Accessing the right person at a larger financial institution can be very difficult
  • The approval process is very streamlined, as customers can obtain pre-approval up to $500K within a few seconds. Unconditional approval is given within 24-48 hours and settlements can occur the day after given our simplified documentation process
  • Our policies surrounding Mining Equipment Finance are more fluid than a major bank. Banks need to meet specific regulations as governed by APRA, which means the information they need from clients may result in a declined decision. Non APRA regulation means that we can offer our clients No Doc Mining Equipment Finance up to $500K and Low Doc Mining Equipment Finance up to $1M

What will my interest rate be?

  • Current rates start at 7.50% but may vary depending on the age of the asset being purchased and the credit score of the applicant
  • Our business has been built on repeat customers and customer referrals over the last 20 years – so it is very important that we provide the best possible market rate whenever we issue a finance approval

How does our online Mining Equipment Finance pre-approval system work?

  • Our client inputs their information into the easy to complete form on the APPLY NOW section of our website. Then a quick calculation is undertaken on the submitted data, with a pre-approval given within a few seconds
  • No formal credit search is undertaken for pre-approvals up to $500K with means our applicants credit score is unaffected
  • If the applicant is successful, they will receive either an email or a phone call indicating what is required for both unconditional approval and settlement

How long does the Mining Equipment Finance process take from start to finish?

  • Pre-Approval up to $500K is instant within seconds
  • Unconditional Approval is 24 – 48 hours after we receive the required information (such as a signed privacy form and income verification if required)
  • Settlement can be achieved the day after unconditional approval if the asset being purchased is through a licenced equipment dealer. Otherwise, a private sale can take a bit longer, given the additional paperwork we need to obtain from the vendor

What type of Mining Equipment can be financed?

  • We finance all types of Mining Equipment with endless configurations as long the Machine has identifiers and will be used for business use

What age of Mining Equipment can be financed?

  • Under our No Doc or Low Doc policy we primarily fund Machines no older than 20 years old at the end of term. This means if the Mining Equipment Loan is over a 5 year term, the Machine can be no older than 15 years old at the time of purchase. If the Equipment is older than 15 years old at the time of purchase, we can shorten the loan term to make it fit within policy
  • If the Mining Equipment is older than 20 years at end of term, we can still assess on a case-by-case basis. We might however require bank statements on the business account or accountant prepared financials to verify income

Can I purchase Mining Equipment being sold by a private vendor?

  • Our clients can purchase Machines from a dealer, auction or private vendor. On most occasions, we will not require a formal valuation on the asset if it is sold by a private vendor – thus saving our customers up to $1,000 on a professional valuers fee
  • Dealer and auction sales are the quickest way to settlement. However, private sales can take longer, given that we need additional documentation from a private vendor to confirm ownership of the Machine and to ensure the funds are being given to the correct person/entity

Can I have a structured payment Mining Equipment Loan facility?

  • Our policy is very flexible, which means we can write into the Loan Contract that a one-off payment is applied to the Loan Contract within 6 months of the drawdown date. This can be done via the gst received on the new Equipment purchase or from the sale proceeds of a current Machine within the fleet
  • Structured payments achieve lower payments for the customer and provides them with the flexibility of selling their Equipment privately without loosing too much asset value under a trade in
  • We can also be creative on the balloon payments applied to our loan contracts, depending on the Asset age, the type of work it will will be doing and the projected amount hours / usage. However, we can apply balloons from 10% to 40% – subject to the client’s needs and whether we need to consider a higher or lower balloon payment to make the deal fit within our policy matrix

What is a balloon payment and how do they workl?

  • A balloon payment can be applied to a Loan Contract in order to reduce overall monthly payments and effectively maximise cash flow for a business
  • A balloon payment can only be applied to a Machine that is no older than 5 years old at time of purchase
  • Balloon payments can be between 10% and 40% depending on the age of the Equipment or the intended usage of the Machine
  • Options for the client with contracts that have balloon payments are to either payout using own funds at the end of the term, refinance the balloon with a separate loan at the end of the term or to payout the balloon from proceeds derived when the Machine is traded at the dealership

Do I need financials completed before I apply for Mining Equipment Finance?

  • Our flexible policy matrix provides our customers access to a wide range of funding options which often means we do not require financial statements
  • No Doc Mining Equipment Finance up to $500K (no bank statements and no financials)
  • Low Doc Mining Equipment Finance up to $1M (BAS and tax portal)
  • Full Doc Mining Equipment Finance above $1M (accountant prepared financials and personal tax returns for the directors)
  • We do not require financial statements for loans up to $500K – it is only on the bigger transactions that BAS or Accountant prepared financials are required – given a higher credit risk based on the purchase price

Can I apply for a Mining Equipment Loan if I am starting out?

  • We  can offer Mining Equipment Finance for new start business. As a general rule, no deposit is required for the purchase price up to $175K. A deposit would be required if the purchase is greater than $175K (typically 20% to 30%)
  • We need to see a work contract or supply agreement confirming our client has ongoing work
  • Also required is confirmation our client has funds in the bank to cover running costs for the first 6 months
  • We do understand that Mining Equipment can often be costly. However, depending on the strength of the applicant and the nature of the work contract / supply agreement – no deposit over the purchase price of $175K is available by way of Finance Lease or Rental on a case by case basis

Where is Heavy Vehicle Finance located?

  • Heavy Vehicle Finance is located in Brisbane – however we have clients Australia Wide. Once a broader relationship has been nurtured, the relevant Relationship Manager will organise an interstate visit to further understand the client’s business
  • We successfully have clients Australia Wide given the fact our approval process is online and we issue documents via email or DocuSign. Customers of Heavy Vehicle Finance can also call our office number or their dedicated Relationship Manager’s mobile number at any time
