At Natloans, we specialise in providing finance solutions tailored to the needs of SMEs, and we’re here to help you grow your business.

Here are 4 smart ways to prepare your business for 2025 and take it to the next level.

1. Purchase Business Assets Before Year-End

If you’re considering purchasing a new vehicle, machinery, or any type of business equipment, now is the perfect time to do so. By acquiring business assets before the end of the year, you can be fully prepared to hit the ground running in 2025.

Plus, depending on your situation, there may be tax benefits associated with buying assets before the new year. Whether it’s a vehicle finance loan or an equipment finance loan, Natloans can help you secure the funding you need quickly and efficiently.

Let us help you invest in your business now so you’re ready to thrive in the new year.

2. Check Your Commercial Property Loan Rate

Do you have a commercial property loan? Now is a great time to review your current interest rate. Many businesses overpay on their commercial property loans, but with interest rates frequently changing, you could potentially save thousands by securing a more competitive rate.

At Natloans, we offer commercial loan reviews to ensure you’re getting the best deal. Refinancing your loan could lower your monthly payments and free up capital for other business investments. Don’t wait—contact us today to see how much you could save!

3. Get a Business Cash Flow Loan

Managing cash flow during the holiday season can be a challenge, especially for small businesses. A business cash flow loan can provide the working capital you need to cover your expenses, keep operations running smoothly, and take advantage of any opportunities that arise.

At Natloans, we specialise in working capital loans tailored to SMEs. These loans can help your business manage through seasonal fluctuations and ensure you’re prepared for a strong start to 2025.

4. Stop Paying Rent – Buy Your Own Business Premises Through Your SMSF

Are you tired of paying rent for your business premises? Now could be the perfect time to explore purchasing your own business property through your Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF). Not only can this provide your business with a permanent home, but it can also serve as a smart long-term investment for your future.

When speaking of business loans, and the interest rates accompanying therewith, it must be understood first that depending on the specific type of business loan, the cost and interest rate is sure to differ. The interest rate upon a business loan is usually noticeably higher than that of a personal or car loan, and whilst this may at first seem alarming, it should be understood that the loan term of a business loan is, in tandem, much shorter in general. This means that the cost overall isn’t significantly higher, or “worse” (if you prefer) than other loan categories, relative to all factors. In this article, we shall rest out focus upon  loans pertaining to Business Cash Flow (BCF), and Line of Credit (LOC) only.

What Defines and Distinguishes BCF and LOC?

• Business Cash Flow Lending

This is a loan which takes the form of a direct cash injection into a business by a lender. This is useful for short-term projects such as funding an expansion of staff, an upgrade to marketing, or a general expansion of stock, facilities and equipment.

• Line of Credit

An ongoing agreement between yourself and your bank which grants you access to a predetermined amount of funding when desired by yourself. This is almost always secured by means of a physical capital, such as a property, the value of which determines the total sum upon which you will be able to draw.

That Said, What Can I Expect In Interest For Each ?

There is no distinct rate, as such, due to the fact that the rate at which these loans will come are largely dependant on the details and special conditions of the person who seeking to take the loan out. Even so, there is one point of note which is distinctly important; generally, these loans will have interest on a PER MONTH BASIS, rather than a per annum basis, due to the fact that the terms thereof are typically so short.

For example, one may find themselves with a Line of Credit which has an interest rate of 2% per month, for a period of 6-12 months. Such is typical of the loan category.

Respecting a Business Cash Flow loan, however, per annum basis of interest are far more typical, albeit with higher interest rates. These rates will typically vary around the mark of 8% PA to 12% PA.

For More Information…

These, of course, are generalities. If you would like to know specifically what an interest rate for yourself or your business may be, the only way to get an accurate picture is to speak with a loan consultant who can calculate all of your specifications and details and thusly present you with a full and complete picture.
