Who benefits most
Our service is helpful if you want a streamlined experience, need help comparing loan features, or have a credit history that needs careful matching to lender policies.
We work to find competitive options, however eligibility and loan conditions are determined by lenders and may vary.
What lenders commonly ask for
Document requirements vary by lender. Below is a common checklist to help speed up assessment.
- Proof of identity (driver's licence or passport)
- Proof of income (pay slips or recent tax returns)
- Bank statements (typically 3 months)
- Details of existing debts and living expenses
- Sale agreement or dealer invoice (for vehicle details)
- Vehicle details: make, model, year, odometer
- Proof of insurance (if required by lender)
- Any additional supporting documents requested by the lender
Not all lenders accept private sale finance and policies differ. We can confirm likely requirements during the initial assessment.
Frequently Asked Questions
A broker compares multiple lenders on your behalf and helps present your application to those most likely to approve it. This can save time and give you visibility of options you might not find going direct — but final approval and terms are set by the lender.
Some lenders will consider private sale vehicle finance but policies vary. We'll assess your circumstances and the vehicle details to shortlist lenders whose criteria match your situation.
Timing depends on lender requirements and how quickly documents are provided. Some approvals can be achieved within 24–48 hours, while others may take longer if further information is required.
Broker remuneration models vary. We discuss any applicable fees and how brokers are paid before you proceed. Using a broker can save time and may uncover more suitable options, but outcomes depend on the lenders' assessments.
