Loan Assesment
We Assess Your Loan
Once we have all your supporting documents we assess your loan immediately. It usually takes between 2 and 24 hours.
If you're Approved we will call you to advise straight away and also send you an email with a summary of the approval in writing.
If we need more information or we can't help you right now, we will advise why and what can be done to make the outcome positive in the future. -
Loan Settlement
Signing Documents and Funding The Loan
Once an Approval is all finalised we need to sign loan documents with you.
Whilst we can help in some cases by completing these over email we usually like to take the time to sit with you and explain the contracts in full so we can answer any questions you may have.
We can come to you or you can come to our office. Once signed and accepted, the loan funds are transferred to their designated places and your loan is settled.
Astute Motor Finance prides itself on being an honest and reputable Lender and we strictly adhere to all required Government legislation including Responsible Lending Practices (NCCP), Privacy Regulations and Anti Money Laundering.
We have made the loan process as simple as we possibly can and strive to offer good old fashion service and values whilst meeting the stringent regulations put in place to protect consumers. Our aim is to make sure at no point you are left wondering what stage we are up to with your application and that you are fully informed of your applications progress along the way.
We make ourselves available whenever you require during the process and unlike banks or large organisations we don't hide behind call centres and reception desks. You will speak to the same person from start to finish - and even after your loan is complete.
In most cases an application can be fully completed and funded in 24 - 48 hours, however the amount of time taken for the legally required employment and residence checks to be returned to us can cause slight delays - If this is the case we will inform you immediately.
On some occasions if we take your application in the morning we can have it finalised in the same day, if all the required supporting documentation are supplied at the time of application.
Please note: We are not a pay-day or short term lender and only offer loans for terms greater than 12 months and for values greater than $3000.

The PPSR Register is a database with information about every car in Australia. By doing a quick PPSR check prior to making a purchase of a private sale car, you can find out information such as :
• the basic vehicle information (Make, Model, Colour etc)
• if there is any money owing on the car still
• if the vehicle has been recorded as stolen
• if the vehicle has been recorded as a write-off
With the recent hail storms around Queensland there are quite a lot of ‘repairable write-offs’ being sold as well, which may have only had some cosmetic damage that has no been fixed but it is forever marked on the PPSR register as a write-off and it seriously diminishes the saleability and value of the car.
There is no need to complete a PPSR check on a vehicle being purchased from a Licensed Motor Dealer as they have to provide you with a clear search as part of their sale conditions.
ASTUTE will automatically do a PPSR check for you before you purchase a private sale car, so you can buy with confidence and make sure you are getting what you pay for. It’s all a part of the service!
