Why Thrift Capital

A specialist finance broker, not a generalist

Most finance brokers do a bit of everything for everyone. We focus exclusively on self-employed Australians, ABN holders, and SME directors. That means deeper lender knowledge, sharper structuring, and faster approvals when banks say no.

40+ specialist non-bank lenders

Access to lender policies the major banks won't touch. New ABNs, low doc, complex income, ATO debt, and credit-impaired scenarios all welcome.

Decade of industry expertise

Over ten years working with self-employed Australians. We've seen most scenarios and know which lender will fund yours.

Same-day quotes, fast approvals

Asset finance approved in as little as the same day. The typical turnaround is around 48 hours for straightforward applications. Home loans and commercial property typically 1-3 weeks.

Sydney-based, Australia-wide service

Headquartered in Sydney, with clients funded across NSW, QLD, VIC, WA, and beyond. End-to-end support no matter where you operate.

No upfront fees, no credit impact

Our quote and pre-qualification process never touches your credit file. We only run formal credit checks once you've chosen to proceed with a specific lender.

Plain English, no surprises

Upfront costs, transparent commissions, and clear lender comparisons. We'll explain why a lender works for you, not just push the highest commission product.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of finance does Thrift Capital arrange?

We arrange seven categories of finance: vehicle and equipment (asset finance), business loans and cashflow, self-employed home loans, commercial property loans, SMSF loans, construction and development finance, and private lending. All for self-employed Australians, ABN holders, and SME directors.

Do I need to be in business for a minimum time to qualify?

It depends on the finance type. Asset finance can be approved with brand-new ABNs (less than 3 months) when work is lined up via signed contracts or evidenced industry experience. Business loans typically require 3+ months trading. Home loans, commercial property, SMSF, and development finance generally require 12-24 months trading history.

How fast can I get approved?

Asset finance approvals can come through same-day to 48 hours for straightforward applications. Business loans typically 2-7 days. Home loans, commercial property, and SMSF loans take 1-3 weeks. Construction and development finance can take longer depending on lender feasibility assessments.

What does it cost to use a finance broker?

Our brokerage service is free to clients for most finance types. Lenders pay us a commission on settled loans, which we disclose upfront before you proceed. There are no upfront fees and no obligation to proceed at any stage.

Will applying affect my credit score?

No. Our quote and pre-qualification process never touches your credit file. We only run formal credit checks once you've chosen to lodge a formal application with a specific lender. Many of our clients shop multiple options before deciding.

What areas of Australia do you service?

We are a Sydney-based finance broker with clients funded Australia-wide. We regularly arrange finance across New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria, Western Australia, and beyond. The entire process can be completed digitally with no in-person meetings required.

Do you only work with self-employed clients?

Yes. We specialise exclusively in self-employed Australians, sole traders, ABN holders, and SME company directors. This focus means deeper lender knowledge for non-bank policies, low doc options, and complex income scenarios that traditional brokers struggle with.
