Frequently Asked Questions

I’m a new owner-driver — can I get prime mover finance?

Yes. Specialist transport lenders work with new owner-drivers regularly. They focus on transport experience, the asset, and a confirmed work pipeline (sub-contract or contract terms) rather than just historical tax returns.

Can you finance truck + trailer in one deal?

Yes — typically as two parallel facilities written at the same time, so each asset can be sold or refinanced independently down the track.

When does buying a depot make sense?

Once you’re paying meaningful rent on a yard or workshop and the operation is stable, owner-occupied commercial property finance often beats leasing on a 5–10 year view. We model the numbers against your business cash flow.
