$42,000 secured boat finance for a remote Northern Territory buyer

The customer had been delayed by another broker for four weeks and was being directed toward a higher-cost unsecured personal loan because the Northern Territory does not issue the same boat registration documents used elsewhere.

What needed to be solved

The customer had been delayed by another broker for four weeks and was being directed toward a higher-cost unsecured personal loan because the Northern Territory does not issue the same boat registration documents used elsewhere.

Approximately 700 score with employer-provided accommodation.

What X Lend did

X Lend found a lender comfortable with the remote location and structured the loan as secured finance using the registered trailer within the boat package.

The quintrex boat and registered trailer submission was matched to specialist lender and moved from application to settlement in 1 week.

Settled outcome

Approved on the first lender enquiry and settled at a historical rate of 10.89%, without moving the customer into an unsecured personal loan.
