A quick guide to caravan finance
A caravan loan helps you purchase a caravan, camper or motorhome now and pay it off over 1–7 years. Secured loans usually offer sharper rates, with the caravan itself as collateral. Unsecured options are available too, giving flexibility when needed.
The amount you can borrow depends on your income, credit profile and the age/value of the caravan. Newer caravans typically qualify for higher limits and longer terms. With the right loan, you can travel Australia without compromising your savings.

Case Study
Graham & Julie
Graham & Julie kit out an off-road caravan without raiding savings
Challenge: Graham and Julie wanted a tough off-road caravan for a WA adventure but were keen to keep their cash buffer intact.
Solution: A secured, fixed-rate 5-year loan funded 90% of the van, with solar, towing gear and essentials added at settlement.
Emu Money compared offers and lined up a sharp fixed rate with simple terms. By packaging the upgrades into the same facility, they had one clear monthly repayment and the confidence to leave on schedule—budget steady, trip plans full steam ahead.
How much can you borrow?
Caravan loans in Australia typically range from $5,000 up to $100,000+. Limits depend on your income, credit profile and the caravan’s age/value. Newer caravans and motorhomes often qualify for higher limits and longer terms, while older models may have shorter terms and lower LVRs.
Terms usually run from 1–7 years. Shorter terms mean higher monthly repayments but less interest overall; longer terms reduce monthly cost but increase the total interest paid.

Balance over time
Are you eligible for caravan finance?
Lenders want to see that your repayments fit comfortably into your budget. They’ll check your income, employment stability, existing commitments and credit history. The caravan itself also matters—newer models usually attract better rates and terms. Even if your credit isn’t perfect, specialist lenders may still have options.
You may be eligible if you are:
An Australian resident aged 18+
Earning a regular income (PAYG or self-employed)
Able to provide payslips or bank statements
Buying a new or used caravan, camper or motorhome from a dealer or private seller
How to apply for a caravan loan
Complete a quick online application, upload your documents, and we’ll match you with lenders. Choose the option that works best and we’ll handle settlement with the dealer or seller.
Documents you may need:
Driver’s licence or passport
Recent payslips or bank statements
Employment/ABN details if self-employed
Caravan details (VIN, invoice/quote)
How to save money on a caravan loan
Compare rates and loan structures—not all caravan finance is the same. Secured loans usually price better than unsecured. Consider a modest balloon to reduce monthly cost, but make sure it aligns with resale value. Newer caravans often qualify for sharper rates. Bundling extras like solar, air-con or tow gear at settlement means they’re financed at the same competitive rate. Also, check fees and early repayment terms to avoid surprises.
Example: Balloon impact — $45,000 over 60 months at 8.79% p.a.:
| Balloon | Approx. Monthly Repayment | Notes |
|---|---|---|
$0 | $930 | Highest monthly cost |
10% ($4,500) | $837 | Lower monthly cost |
20% ($9,000) | $744 | Balance of cost vs flexibility |
30% ($13,500) | $651 | Lowest monthly cost; plan to clear balloon |
Caravan loan options explained
Understand the features that shape your repayments and flexibility:
Secured vs Unsecured
Secured uses the caravan as collateral for lower rates. Unsecured is flexible but usually costs more.
Fixed vs Variable
Fixed locks in repayment certainty. Variable may move with market rates—up or down.
Balloon Payments
Choose to reduce monthly costs with a lump sum at the end—be sure you can clear it.
Early Repayment Flexibility
Some lenders allow extra repayments or early payout with minimal fees.
Fees & Charges
Check establishment, monthly and exit fees to understand the true cost.
