Structure before submission
Start with the business job, asset life and available evidence.
Useful commercial-finance preparation connects the asset to the work it will perform, the expected holding period and the records available to support the request.
Asset and supplier
Age, condition, supplier, invoice and expected useful life can influence lender appetite and structure.
Evidence position
Trading history, bank statements, BAS, financials or alternative evidence may be relevant. Low-doc never means no assessment.
Ownership and end position
Discuss deposits, balloon obligations and ownership goals, then confirm tax treatment with the business accountant.
