Common Questions
Yes in many cases. Specialist non-bank lenders assess applications holistically — the trailer's value, your current income and the story behind your credit issues all factor in alongside the credit score.
Yes. A deposit reduces the lender's risk and can significantly improve your chances of approval and the rate offered when credit history is impaired.
Trailers with strong resale markets — popular curtainsiders, standard semi-trailers, horse floats from reputable manufacturers — are more likely to be approved because the asset provides strong security for the lender.
