Hire Purchase
Purpose
Assists companies and business professionals to acquire a wide range
of equipment such as motor vehicles, trucks, agricultural, earthmoving, industrial plant and business equipment.
How it works
The hire purchase agreement is a contract where the finance company (the "owner") gives the "hirer" possession and use of an item of equipment in return for regular payments.
When the final payment is made, the "hirer" owns the goods.
Match your cashflow
Tailor the repayments to suit seasonal cash flow. You can also arrange to make a balloon payment at the end of the loan to reduce repayments throughout the term.

You have the flexibility to repay the contract in full before the term ends.

Novated Lease
Purpose
For employees who require a car for business use or as part of their salary package. The employee's company pays for all repayments to the finance company while the employee enjoys full use of the motor vehicle.
How it Works
The employee decides on the car to be purchased and leases it from Esanda.
The employee then novates the lease to their employer, who assumes all the employee’s rights and obligations under the lease, including responsibility of meeting the lease rentals.
The contract is in the name of the employee who remains the registered owner throughout the lease and keeps effective control of the vehicle at all times.
If the employee leaves the company, the vehicle remains with the employee. In this situation generally the employee takes over the payments or gets another employer to make the payments. This means, the original employer is not left with an unwanted car and the employee keeps the vehicle.
Product Benefits
- Benefits for Employees
- Use of the vehicle with employer meeting the monthly repayments.
- Option to buy the vehicle without a deposit or the hassle of being reimbursed from your employer.
- Complete choice about what car you buy and where you buy it from.
- Retain the car even if changing employment.
- Benefits for Employers
- If the employee leaves, the company is not left with an unwanted car.
- The employer can provide the employee with a car without having to reflect it on its balance sheet.
Interest Rates
We offer highly competitive interest rates fixed for the term of the loan guaranteeing a set monthly repayment.

Finance Lease
Purpose
For employees who require a car for business use or as part of their salary package. The employee's company pays for all repayments to the finance company while the employee enjoys full use of the motor vehicle.
How it Works
The finance company purchases the equipment or vehicle you require and then leases the goods to you. You then enjoy the use of the vehicle or equipment for an agreed time in return for a series of rental repayments.
What is the lease agreement?
The lease agreement sets out the:
- Residual value of the item being financed
- Duration of the lease
- Fixed Monthly rental
- Depreciation rate
When the lease expires
You can choose to:
- Return the equipment to the finance company who has the option to sell it in the market place (The client would need to make up the shortfall if the net sale was less than the agreed residual value)
- The finance company may give you an invitation to purchase the equipment.
Product Benefits
- No initial cash outlay
A finance lease gives you immediate access to the goods your business needs without a capital outlay so you can put your day-to-day cash flow to better use.
- Negotiate your payments and residual value
Within an approved range allowing more flexibility in budgeting.
- Flexible terms
Match your finance to the length of time the asset is required – from one to five years.
- Match your cashflow
Tailor the repayments to suit seasonal cash flow. You can also arrange to make a balloon payment at the end of the loan to reduce repayments throughout the term.
- Tax deductible
Rental payments are fully tax deductible if the equipment is used solely for earning assessable income. Speak to your accountant for further information about tax benefits.
- Free up other valuable assets
The equipment being purchased is normally sufficient security for the finance – your other business assets are not required as security.
