Your Dream Car Could Be Closer Than You Think

Late last year we needed a new car, we had a make do car that was starting to cost more than it was worth and we decided it was time to bite the bullet and purchase a new, reliable car.

Being in the finance industry I am used to writing loans and not being the customer, so this was a great experience for a change. Everyday I get to talk to my clients about their plans, what it is they want to do and I get to bridge that gap. No matter what it is, from saving money on their home loan, building their First Home or upgrading their car, I get to help them along that journey,

I love what I do, I love helping my clients along that journey. Above all I love when I get to be the witness to my clients achieving what it is they set out to achieve.

It was late 2017 when the shoe was on the other foot. We had a car, it was an oldie but a goodie, we had planned to replace it when it died. Whilst we thought we had a little more time up our sleaves there were a few little issues that screamed ‘time for a new car’ and so we bit the bullet and started to research our next car.

I let my husband do the negotiation, he loves that part (and between you and me he’s really good at it) but once he found our dream car and got an amazing deal it was up to me to get the finance.

The best part about being the client for a change was, I found was how quick and easy Asset finance is compared to a home loan. I know business lending is governed differently than personal lending and I know from my time working with Business Banking Relationship Managers that business banking is less black and white and more understanding.

It wasn’t until the new car that I got the pleasure of experiencing the difference and I loved it! Within the space of a week I was able to;

  • Secure a car
  • Receive a formal approval
  • Confirm and sign loan documents (electronically)
  • Pick up the new car

The process was so quick and seamless there was no time to consider if we made the right decision, we did by the way.
