If you need finance, do not hesitate to go to Damien. Because of our age, it was a huge challenge. But Damien got it done and made the whole process as simple as possible. This is the second vehicle that Damien has helped us to finance. i wouldn't go anywhere else. He's efficient and he's a gentleman.

Can’t recommend Damien highly enough. Absolute legend of a broker who went above and beyond every step of the way to help me secure a great rate and get everything sorted quickly and stress free. Communication was unreal, always kept me updated and explained everything properly. Nothing was ever too hard and he genuinely cared about getting the best outcome possible for me. If you’re looking for someone honest, reliable and willing to put in the work for you, Damien’s your guy. Thanks again mate!

Frequently Asked Questions

Why use a broker to finance solar?

Treadgold Finance compares multiple lenders who offer solar and battery finance, rather than limiting you to one bank’s products. Solar finance products vary significantly between lenders in terms of rates, loan terms and eligible system sizes. We match your application to the most suitable lender and handle all paperwork so you can focus on choosing the right system.

What can I finance?

We arrange finance for solar panel systems, battery storage units (including Tesla Powerwall and similar), hybrid solar and battery systems, and solar upgrades or expansions. Both residential and commercial systems are eligible, from $10,000 upward. Finance is available for systems installed by accredited installers.

How fast can I get approved?

Solar finance applications typically receive conditional approval within 24–48 hours with complete documentation. Having your installer’s quote ready speeds up the process. We expedite applications by ensuring everything is complete before submission and maintaining regular lender contact throughout.

How much can I borrow?

We arrange solar finance from $10,000 upward. Borrowing capacity depends on your income, existing debts, credit history and the system being financed. We conduct a preliminary assessment to determine realistic borrowing limits before formal application so there are no surprises.

Can businesses claim solar finance as a tax deduction?

Business use solar finance may be tax-deductible as a business expense. The interest component of business solar loans is generally deductible, and businesses may also be able to claim depreciation on the system. We recommend speaking with your accountant about your specific circumstances as tax outcomes vary.

Do you hit my credit file?

We only conduct credit checks when you provide written consent, typically after identifying suitable solar finance options for your situation. Initial assessments and quotes don’t require a credit check. When we do proceed, we coordinate applications carefully to minimise inquiries on your file.

What are your rates and fees?

Rates and fees vary based on loan amount, term, your credit profile and current market conditions. We provide transparent information on all costs and compare total borrowing costs across lenders, not just interest rates. There are no hidden fees — everything is explained before you commit.
