If you’re a Brisbane-based business looking to finance equipment — whether that’s a truck, an excavator, a piece of manufacturing machinery, or a commercial vehicle — Novara Finance is a local broker with a national lender panel.

Our Brisbane office services businesses across the greater Brisbane region, the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, Logan, Moreton Bay, Toowoomba, and throughout Queensland. We work with owner-operators, civil contractors, tradies, manufacturers, and SMEs at every stage — from new ABN holders buying their first piece of plant through to established businesses managing multi-million-dollar fleets.

What we finance for Brisbane businesses

Trucks and heavy vehicles

Prime movers, rigids, tippers, tray trucks, refrigerated trucks. South East Queensland’s logistics, construction, and transport sectors drive constant demand for truck finance. We know which lenders offer the best rates for each truck category. Read our truck finance guide →

Earthmoving and construction equipment

Excavators, loaders, bobcats, graders, rollers. Brisbane’s ongoing infrastructure pipeline — Cross River Rail, Brisbane Metro, Olympic-related projects — means earthmoving operators are busy and need equipment. We’ve financed earthmoving plant for contractors across SEQ for years. Earthmoving equipment finance →

Manufacturing and industrial machinery

CNC machines, welding equipment, fabrication tools, production lines. Brisbane’s manufacturing base in suburbs like Brendale, Eagle Farm, Wacol, and Geebung includes hundreds of small-to-medium manufacturers who rely on equipment finance to upgrade and expand. Machinery finance guide →

Commercial vehicles

Utes, vans, fleet vehicles, buses. Whether you’re a tradie running a single ute or a business managing a fleet across Brisbane, we match you to the right lender.

Specialist and niche equipment

Medical equipment, hospitality fit-outs, food trucks, agricultural machinery. Whatever your business needs, if the equipment has resale value, it can likely be financed.

Why a local Brisbane broker matters

Brisbane businesses benefit from working with a broker who understands the local market:

We know the local industries

Brisbane’s economy is driven by construction, transport, logistics, mining services, manufacturing, and hospitality. Each industry has different equipment needs, different cash flow patterns, and different seasonal demands. We structure finance around these realities — not generic templates.

Face-to-face when you need it

While we handle most applications over the phone and email (faster for everyone), our Brisbane office is available for face-to-face meetings when the deal is complex or you prefer to sit down and go through the numbers in person.

We understand SEQ’s construction cycle

South East Queensland’s infrastructure boom — from Cross River Rail through to the 2032 Olympic preparations — is creating sustained demand for equipment. Operators who are gearing up need fast access to competitive finance, and we’re set up to deliver that.

Brisbane businesses we’ve helped

M.J., Brendale — Fabrication workshop

Financed a new Mazak CNC lathe ($195,000) at 6.6% p.a. chattel mortgage. The lender specialised in manufacturing equipment and understood the asset’s resale value — which is why the rate was significantly lower than the initial bank quote of 9.4%.

Individual circumstances vary.

K.L., Narangba — Civil contractor

Financed a used Komatsu PC200 excavator ($180,000) and a Hino 700 series tipper ($165,000) as a combined package deal. Approved at 7.2% across both assets. The combined approach meant one set of paperwork and a volume-based rate improvement.

Individual circumstances vary.

S.T., Acacia Ridge — New owner-operator

ABN active 9 months. Financed a used Isuzu FRR 107-210 rigid ($85,000) for local deliveries. Two banks declined due to ABN length. We matched him to a specialist lender who approved on low-doc basis with a 15% deposit. Approved at 10.1% p.a. He’s now 10 months in with a perfect repayment record.

Individual circumstances vary.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to visit your Brisbane office?
No. Most applications are handled over the phone and email — it’s faster for everyone. But if you prefer a face-to-face meeting, our Brisbane office is available by appointment. Complex deals or first-time buyers sometimes find a sit-down conversation helpful.
How quickly can you approve equipment finance in Brisbane?
For established businesses with clean credit, 24–48 hours is typical. Low-doc, new business, or credit-impaired applications usually take 2–5 business days. We’ve achieved same-day approvals for straightforward applications.
Do you only finance equipment for Brisbane businesses?
No. While our Brisbane office primarily services SEQ and Queensland businesses, we handle equipment finance applications Australia-wide. We also have a Sydney office for NSW-based businesses. Equipment finance broker Sydney →
