Olesya2025-07-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The BEST broker in Australia – Clinton Burnes! I honestly can’t recommend Clinton Burnes highly enough. He is without a doubt the number one broker in Australia, and after working with him, I wouldn’t go to anyone else. From the very first conversation, Clinton made everything feel easy and stress-free. He really took the time to understand what we needed, explained every step in plain English, and somehow managed to make a process that usually feels overwhelming feel completely under control. What I love most is that Clinton genuinely cares. He’s not just ticking boxes – he goes above and beyond, always thinking ahead, always finding the best possible solution, and always keeping you informed. Even when you think something is impossible, he somehow makes it possible. That’s the difference between a good broker and a truly exceptional one. Thanks to his expertise and determination, we achieved a result that was better than we even hoped for. He made us feel supported the whole way through, and you can tell he truly works for your best interests, not just the easy option. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, trustworthy, and genuinely the best in the business, Clinton Burnes is the one. Five stars isn’t enough – he deserves ten!

My broker, Clinton is just one of the best people I have come across. While he Clinton is a busy man steering the business and I am not a wis bang expert with technology Clinton has always preserved with me. I am yet to actually having met Clinton in person as I am an interstate investor we have communicated by phone email and once or twice by teams. He is always polite attentive to my questions very efficient with follow-up information his knowledge of the every changing financial market place is very hard to beat.

David Skene Chloe Glass2025-07-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I honestly can’t recommend Jan King enough. From the very beginning, she made the entire mortgage process feel so much less overwhelming. I had a million questions (and a few mild meltdowns), but she was so patient, clear, and genuinely invested in getting the best outcome for me. She took the time to understand not just my finances, but my goals, and walked me through every option with complete transparency. I never felt rushed or like “just another client” – she truly went above and beyond, and I felt completely supported the entire way through. If you’re thinking of buying, refinancing, or just want some honest mortgage advice, I can’t think of anyone better to have in your corner. She’s sharp, trustworthy, and just a really lovely person to work with. Slicker 12025-06-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Car & Vehicle Finance — FAQs
New car finance usually comes with sharper rates and longer loan terms, since new vehicles pose less risk to lenders. Used car finance often has slightly higher rates, but the loan size is smaller because the vehicle costs less. Both options can be tailored to suit your budget and goals.
Your borrowing limit depends on things like your income, credit history, existing debts, and the value of the vehicle. Lenders generally set a maximum loan amount based on a percentage of the car’s value, and your broker will help you find a structure that fits comfortably within your budget.
In most cases, approval can be turned around within 24 to 48 hours once all your documents are in. Timing varies between lenders and the type of application, but with a broker’s help, it’s usually a smooth and quick process.
Yes — many lenders allow early repayment, often with minimal or no fees. Always check your loan terms first, as early payout conditions differ between lenders. Paying it out early can help you save on interest if managed correctly.
It depends on how you use the vehicle. If it’s mostly for business, you might benefit from tax deductions or GST credits through a business loan. If it’s for private or mixed use, a personal car loan might be more suitable. Your broker can help weigh up both options.
Yes. ABN holders — whether sole traders, contractors or business owners — can access a range of vehicle finance options, including chattel mortgages and leases. Lenders assess your business income and structure the loan to suit your cash flow and GST position.
Most new and used cars, utes, vans, trucks, and light commercial vehicles are eligible. Some lenders also finance specialist or fit-for-purpose vehicles depending on your industry and business needs.
A balloon or residual payment is a lump sum due at the end of your loan. It reduces your regular repayments but means you’ll have a larger payment to make at the end — which you can pay, refinance, or trade in the vehicle to cover. It’s a handy way to manage cash flow, especially for business buyers.
Car loan interest is generally fixed for the loan term, meaning your repayments stay the same each month. Some lenders offer variable rates, which can fluctuate over time. The rate you’re offered depends on your credit profile, loan amount, and vehicle type.
Typically, you’ll need ID, recent payslips or business income statements, and basic vehicle details (make, model, year, purchase price). Some lenders may ask for bank statements or proof of insurance. Having these ready upfront speeds up approval.
