Frequently Asked Questions
What information will I need to provide in my asset finance application?
As part of the application process, we will ascertain your anticipated asset finance spend for the next 12 months so that an appropriate credit limit can be set up to meet your finance needs. Once established, we will require your last two years financial statements for credit assessment – if this information is publicly available there is no need for you to provide this to us.
Let us know what asset you would like to finance and over what term and we will do the rest.
If further information is required to support the assessment of the application, our team will be in touch to let you know.
Does Vestone offer sale and leaseback on assets?
Yes, Vestone Capital considers the sale and leaseback of certain assets up to 6 months old subject to meeting credit requirements.
We can also help with environmentally friendly asset disposal for older assets that you may have. To find out more, please get in touch with our team.
Will I need to place a deposit to take out asset finance?
No. There is no requirement to place a deposit for asset finance with Vestone Capital.
How will the asset leasing option help me align with my organisation’s sustainability targets?
Vestone Capital’s Sustainability Committee is leading the way in making sustainable decisions for our business and customer product offering. Our asset leasing product offers customers a sustainable finance solution as it supports principles of a circular economy where assets are used by customers, returned to us at the end of lease and the life of the asset extended or responsibly recycled. This option assists our clients in decreasing their carbon emissions and e-waste that often ends up in landfills.
We also offer finance solutions for businesses looking to finance energy efficient and renewable energy assets such as solar panels, HVACs and EV charging stations.
Will this leasing option be tailored to my industry?
Businesses in the education industry may require specific solutions that align with their budget (grants), seasonality – school terms & holidays, and technology upgrades to ensure that they provide the latest technology and quality service to their students and staff.
Our team has extensive experience in the education industry, providing innovative solutions and valuable guidance to our clients including Independent, Catholic and Government schools.
Vestone Capital offers an education specific Master Rental Agreement and flexible end of term options that complement the specific requirements of the education industry.

What happens at the end of the finance term?
At the end of term, on a rental/operating lease, you will have access the following options:
- Return the assets (subject to return conditions)
- Extend the lease – either on a casual or fixed term basis
- Purchase the equipment at Fair Market Value (as determined by Vestone Capital).
We understand the importance of flexibility for education institutions at the end of term, that’s why :
- We factor in the expected condition of the returned equipment when we price your transaction.
- We understand that sometimes our clients will not be able to return assets on specific days so we will work with you to tailor a solution that suits your circumstance.
- We are transparent around the end of term process – if you want an end of term purchase price up front – just ask, we can provide this to you.
- We do not require original boxes or ancillary equipment (keyboards, mice etc) to be returned with the assets.
We value strong long-term relationships with our clients and will invest time in working with you to tailor an asset finance solution that meets the needs of your institution.
