ABN Car Loan
What are ABN Car Loans?
An ABN car loan is a type of business loan called a chattel mortgage. This type of loan allows different types of businesses to secure a loan against a motor vehicle. The 'chattel' is the asset or car being purchased and the 'mortgage' is the loan that uses the asset as security whilst regular loan repayments are made. To qualify for a ABN car loan, the vehicle must be used for a minimum of 50% business use.
Businesses ranging from sole traders, partnerships and trusts to large corporations can use ABN car finance to purchase vehicles. There are a number of business car loan options available to self employed individuals and small business owners that negate the need for payslips. In some instances no paperwork is required to secure a loan.
What are the types of ABN car loans?
There are 3 types of car finance for ABN holders - no doc car loan, low doc car loan and full doc car loan. The main difference between these business car loan options is the amount of financial paperwork required to secure finance.
A no doc car loan is suitable for established businesses that have been operating for a number of years with the owners being asset backed.
Low doc car loans are a popular choice for business owners. Although a current business tax return is not required, interim financials such as BAS, profit and loss and/or bank statements, may be required to substantiate income.
Full doc car loans require up-to-date financials to secure finance.
