- How it works
Gear that earns in Mackay & the Bowen Basin.
New, used, dealer, auction or private sale — if it earns income in Mackay & the Bowen Basin, there's a good chance we can finance it.
We read the file before we pick the lender.
Mining-services money is real money
Recurring maintenance contracts and mine-site invoices carry weight when they're presented properly. A lender who understands the Basin reads that revenue differently to one who doesn't — picking the lender is the job.
Cane pays in seasons
Harvest income lands in a window. Repayments can be structured to match it rather than pretending the cash flow is flat — the structure exists, it just has to be asked for.
Ex-mine gear and rebuilds
Plant coming out of mine disposals and auctions is often excellent buying with an unusual paper trail. Condition reports and the right lender category get these settled where a bank sees only the hours.
You don't need a broker in your street. You need one on your file.
Forefront works Mackay 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.
