- How it works
Gear that earns in the Gold Coast region.
New, used, dealer, auction or private sale — if it earns income in the Gold Coast region, there's a good chance we can finance it.
We read the file before we pick the lender.
The Yatala auction lane
Ritchie Bros at Yatala and the dealer yards along the M1 turn over serious gear. Auction terms mean settling in days, not weeks — walk in pre-approved and the hammer price is the only negotiation left.
Civil packages and progress payments
Subcontract civil work pays in claims and stages. Lenders who understand progress-payment cash flow read these files well — lenders who don't, don't. We put the file in front of the right ones.
Fifteen years of local precedent
Most Gold Coast asset types, we've financed before — often the same models, sometimes the same machines twice. That history shortens the path from application to approval.
You don't need a broker in your street. You need one on your file.
Forefront works Gold Coast files remotely from Queensland — the same person from first call to settlement, with everything arranged where the gear sits.
A dedicated case manager
You talk to the person who runs your file — first call to settlement. No handoffs, no queue.
The file is shaped where you are
Docs move by phone and email. Inspections and valuations are arranged wherever the gear sits.
Lender matched to the asset and the work
30+ lenders read regional files differently. Picking the one that reads yours well is most of the job.
Settlement without the road trip
Payouts, PPSR and paperwork run remotely. You keep working while it settles.

All resources →Trucks #1 to #3 — why the first prime mover is the hardest, and why the third often unlocks fleet finance
The first three truck files are nothing alike. Why truck #1 is the hardest finance you'll write, where the serviceability pinch hits on #2, and why #3 often opens up fleet appetite and bank-style rates.
Hard dealsRefinancing equipment when the seller still owes money on it
Buying gear that's still under finance? The payout-and-take-over mechanics, the PPSR release, and why most brokers won't touch these files — but we run them weekly.
RefinanceTruck refinance for cash flow — when it works, and when it doesn't
Pulling equity out of a truck to fund working capital can be smart or a band-aid. How to tell which, what the rate impact is, and the ATO-debt angle most operators miss.
