- Construction vehicles and equipment
- Plant and machinery, such as processing machinery, printing presses and engineering equipment
- IT and telecommunication equipment
- Marine and aviation assets
Can cashflow be improved by taking out asset finance?
Yes, businesses could improve their cashflow by:
- Expanding their operations with another acquisition
- Receiving approval of an asset loan within 24-hours
- Securing an asset loan based on a payment in advance
- Financing the renovation of the interior of a new site, including fixtures and fittings, catering equipment, furniture and decoration
- Open a very popular and successful new gastro pub
A potential scenario of when a business could benefit from asset finance
If the owners of a restaurant wanted to expand and open a new site, they could use asset finance to complete the interior upgrade, including fixtures and fittings, catering equipment, furniture and decoration.
In this scenario we could help the business owners by understanding which type of solution that would work best for the situation. It could be possible to get the finance approved within 25 hours. An example term could be 5 years with a 3-month VAT deferral.
We have access to ‘tier one’ funders which could offer extremely competitive rates for this type of equipment, as almost all restaurant items are classed as ‘soft assets’. Asset finance could offer restaurant owners a quick and flexible solution.

New experience as first time buyers but Sarah and her team were extremely efficient and allowed our constant bombardment of questions to be met with happy answers. House purchasing is stressful and for ourselves it was very confusing but they provided us with reassurances and managed our expectations throughout the process. Thanks again team for helping us with our first house purchase on a home we never thought we could achieve.Posted on Helen WyllieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service from start to finish. All staff were so helpful and efficient. I remortgaged following my divorce and was guided through every step. Most highly recommended. Thank you so much.Posted on John ZhouTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were lucky enough to find Sarah and Chris at Oak Mortgage. Our mortgage was refused by our current mortgage lender Halifax, just a few weeks before completion due to one of us being self-employed. We were then turned down again by other time-wasting agents. The situation quickly became a nightmare — not just for us, but also for our seller and buyer. Most mortgage advisors weren’t willing to invest the time, as many prefer straightforward cases, even though both of our credit scores were above 600/700. But Chris and Sarah truly demonstrated what British professionalism should look like: they were attentive listeners, patient, and highly professional throughout. Thanks to their support, our case was completed smoothly within a few weeks. Although it slightly delayed our original plan, we successfully completed in the end. We would definitely and highly recommend Sarah and her team — well done and thank you!Posted on Bethan PriceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding Service from Sarah Tinkler at Oak Mortgages I can't recommend Oak Mortgages enough, especially Sarah Tinkler, who has been absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. She was incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and always quick to respond to any questions I had. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and she made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. Thank you so much, Sarah 🙂 BethanPosted on Edmund FryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Claire made the process simple and helped explain all our options.
