Private sale and auction finance

Can you finance a private sale or auction purchase?

Yes. Many of our lenders will finance a car, ute, truck, caravan, boat or machine bought from a private seller or at auction, as well as from a dealer. Business purchases must be used at least 50% for business.

The short answer

Buying privately or at auction?

Yes, it can be financed

Dealer, private sale and auction purchases can all be financed, for cars, utes, trucks, caravans, boats and equipment. You can borrow from $10,000 to $500,000, subject to lender criteria.

What we’ll usually need, by where you’re buying

Where you’re buyingWhat we’ll usually ask for
DealerThe dealer’s quote or invoice.
Private sellerThe seller’s details and the vehicle’s rego and VIN. The seller also completes a quick e-inspection with a third party such as Verimoto or Redbook: they receive a link by SMS and email, then take photos of the asset and confirm their identity. We run a PPSR check on the asset.
AuctionUsually treated like a dealer purchase: the auction house invoice.

Before you buy

✓Talk to us before auction day, so you know your options before you bid
✓We check the PPSR (Personal Property Securities Register) on a private sale, to make sure no money is still owed on the asset
✓Older equipment: some lenders finance machines up to 30 years old
✓Buying new instead? We can source new cars at fleet prices through our dealer network

“My wife and I are really skeptic in this kinds of thing where you put the trust specially in finance. We would like to give a shoutout to Mina from Financfy for such a lenient, well thought and obliging response to our needs.”

Questions, answered

Can I get finance for a car from a private seller?

Yes. Many of our lenders will finance a car or ute bought from a private seller. The seller completes a quick e-inspection with a third party such as Verimoto or Redbook: they receive a link by SMS and email, then take photos of the asset and confirm their identity. We run a PPSR check on the asset, handle the paperwork with the seller and settle.

Yes. Auction purchases of trucks, machinery and vehicles can be financed, and lenders usually treat them like a dealer purchase. Talk to us before auction day so you know your options before you bid.

It depends on the lender and the asset. Some lenders finance equipment up to 30 years old.

Not for a low doc loan. With a low doc loan you don’t need to provide tax returns or financials. Lenders still check your ABN, ID and credit history, and some may ask for a deposit.

From 3 months with some lenders for cars, utes, vans, caravans, boats and motorbikes, depending on your circumstances. Trucks and earthmoving equipment usually need 6 months.

No. We start with a soft credit check that doesn’t affect your credit score. Your credit file is only affected when an application is submitted to a lender.

Yes. We lend Australia-wide.

From $10,000 to $500,000, subject to lender criteria, with terms from 1 to 7 years.
