Pre-arranging Boat Loans Before Sydney Boat Show
Pre-arranging finance prior to attending a showcase can provide significant benefits to buyers. Having finance approved gives confidence to proceed with the order and may avoid delays in delivery of the vessel. It can also allow the opportunity to take advantage of any show specials which suppliers may be offering. This may be a special price on a trailer fishing boat fully rigged out and ready to go, a discount on a luxury motor vessel, or possibly extra accessories included for the price of the boat. Pre-approved finance may also prevent missing out on limited edition models.
In arranging finance, buyers should first determine the type of loan they require. Our brokers will assist with this but for new boats purchased for private, recreational use, our Secured Boat Loan will be the most suitable product for most buyers.
