What Is Chattel Mortgage?

Chattel mortgage is a term referring to a loan granted to a business on a moveable asset (i.e not a plot of land or building). This is usually a car, vehicle, or other piece of equipment for the company in question.

When Is Chattel Mortgage Appropriate?

A chattel mortgage is ideal for financing goods which are intended primarily for business use. Even so, the buyer can take ownership of the goods and use them as they please, upon the arrival of said goods. 

Who Can Benefit From Chattel Mortgage?

Anyone wishing to finance the purchase of goods for business purposes. This includes businesses, companies, partnerships and sole traders operating in Australia. You can purchase commercial vehicles including cars, vans and other business equipment.
