FAQ
Frequently Asked Question
How do I apply for a business loan?
The first step is to speak to a Commercial Broker at Specter Financial over the phone. We’ll discuss your business and your goals, and gather some key details about your operations and financial history. Then leave it to us – we’ll negotiate with our extensive lender panel and respond with commercial finance solutions tailored to your unique situation. Speaking to us is completely free and you’re under no obligation to go ahead.
Is my business eligible for finance?
To be eligible for financing or loans via Specter Financial you will need to meet one of two of the following criteria.
If you have been running your business for a period greater than 3 months, you qualify for financing. If you own/are currently paying off property, you are also eligible, regardless of current circumstances relating to your business.
If you do not fall into either of these categories, get in contact with a friendly member of our team and we can discuss possible tactics moving forward
How much can I borrow?
This will be determined on a case-by-case basis. Our team will provide you with loan limits depending on your business’s current turnover and profitability, or the equity stake you have in your properties.
What terms are available?
At Specter Financial, our customer-centric philosophy means that we will always strive towards terms that enable the highest chance of success for you. Once we have established your current situation and future ambitions, we can work with you to arrive at terms that are customised to your needs and mutually beneficial for both parties.
How long does the approval and funding process take?
This will depend on the complexity of your financing requirements. Typically, Specter Financial offers same day approval and funding for straight-forward non secured loans. You can expect to receive secured loan approval and funding within a 24-48 hour time frame. Keep in mind each loan is different, so these guidelines are subject to change.
What makes commercial loans different from home loans/loans for an individual?
Commercial loans are not governed by the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2001 (NCCP Act), meaning negotiations with lenders can be more flexible and fruitful for you, the consumer.
That is why it is vital to have an experienced broker in your corner during these negotiations. Having worked in many sides of the financial system, the experts at Specter Financial are aware of what banks and lenders want to see in an application. Without this experience, the banks often capitalise on loanees lack of knowledge — overcharging and locking you into loans that are not weighed in your favour.
For commercial loans, it’s best to have a team like Specter Financial on your side. We’ll always make sure you’re aware of the best deals.
What do commercial mortgage brokers do?
As your commercial brokers, we first get to know you as an individual, making sure we have fully understood the goals and ambitions of your business. Once we are on the same page, our team will record what type of property you are looking to get a loan for, whether that be a warehouse, office space, retail shop front or factory.
Next, your Specter Financial representative will collect information on your business. Are you a PAYG? If so, you will need to provide us with your most recent payslip and group certificate. Are you self-employed? If you answered yes, our team will need to see your BAS statements for the past 2-3 years and any supporting documents depicting your business and personal financials within that time. This can include tax returns. If you are unable to provide 2-3 years worth of income evidence, we do offer low doc solutions with a variety of specialist lenders we’re associated with.
Once we have collected these details, we will be armed with all we need to find you a loan that is just right for you. After we have located the loan that suits your needs best, we will provide you with an Indicative Funding Proposal (IFP). This highlights the likely terms of your loan — once you give us the green light, we will send this off to be finalised by the lender. In the meantime, we handle all paperwork and communications with your solicitors, accountants and/or buying agents to ensure the process is as streamlined as possible.
What are the benefits of a commercial broker?
First and foremost, we’re on your side. Here at Specter Financial, our only allegiance is to you. Our credit experience and knowledge of available rates and terms mean that we can approach the right lender for your situation. Some commercial brokers actually work for the banks, meaning that their motivations aren’t strictly aligned with your needs. This is where we differ.
We understand your goals and our success is often defined by yours, meaning when we work on financing solutions for your business, we are in it for the long-haul.
Did you know that some types of commercial loans can be offered at residential rates? Or that your Loan to Value (LTV) ratio isn’t set in stone? Having access to this kind of knowledge enables us to secure better deals for our clients when they enlist in our commercial brokerage services.
How much does it cost to use a commercial broker?
At Specter Financial, you will always be made aware of fees and costs before being subject to them. It is completely free to talk to one of our dedicated brokers and you are under no obligation to proceed with any plans put forward.
Brokerage fees may be issued to cover man-hour costs needed relating to solving complex or unusual situations. This is usually due to the time needed to identify suitable lenders and deals for your business. However, as previously mentioned, you will always be notified of possible fees before moving forward.
Do you offer financial planning and wealth management services?
Currently, financial planning and wealth management is not offered as a direct service at Specter Financial. We will refer you to one of our trusted partners who’s most suited to catering to your needs. The partners we refer you to can help you with insurance, accounting, residential lending or superannuation advice and guidance.
What documents will I need to show the lender?
When you’re looking to secure a loan through Specter Financial, you can expect to show the following documents: employment and salary history; current capital — this is your cash deposit that’s available to pay upfront; supporting evidence depicting the value of the property/asset being financed against; and financial history (e.g. credit rating, expenses and debts).
If you are unable to provide these documents for unforeseen circumstances or have a poor credit rating, don’t worry! Get in touch with our friendly team and we can work towards tailored solutions for you.
What do lenders look for in an application?
Typically, lenders will look at 5 key factors when deciding to approve a loan: Character — a look into your past financial behaviour and your inclination to act responsibly if your loan was approved. Capacity — your capacity to pay back a secured loan, determined on past profit and loss statements or projected revenue backed by data. Collateral — offered as an assurance to the lender in the case that a loan is unable to be repaid. Capital — assets currently storing your wealth that could be used to pay back the lender. Conditions — interest rates and fees, loan amount and repayment schedule.
To strengthen the likelihood of securing funding, there is one thing we expect from our clients: honesty. If we keep our relationship as transparent as possible, we can quickly identify the best path towards your business or personal goals. Remember, we are on your team!
