       Lease Financing

             No Matter what your credit rating is, we can help you! We do lease financing from  "A" to "C" credit

Leasing is the right choice!

Leasing is one of the fastest growing ways of acquiring equipment in business today. Recent surveys found that 80% of U.S. businesses, from Fortune 500 to the local family business, lease some portion of their equipment. A growing business often faces the dilemma of limited cash flow and the need to add equipment. Leasing can put the equipment to work for you with real cash flow advantages and without major capital investment.

No need to tie up capital
Keep your business' cash for working capital when revenues are low or future needs and unexpected expenses.

Convenience and flexibility
A quick and easy application process, flexible terms and payment plans, upgrade capabilities and the ability to work with budget restrictions make leasing an attractive financing option.

You can always lease equipment – you can't lease money!
Most types of financing require down payments of up to 5%- 25%, whereas leasing covers 100% of the cost of the equipment. Most leases require only two payments in advance. Get immediate use of the equipment with minimal up-front cost.

Preserve existing lines of credit
Leasing has no impact on your bank credit lines. Protect your borrowing power for other business needs or opportunities.

Eliminate obsolescence
Technology is changing at a rapid fire pace. What meets your business' needs today may be obsolete three years from now. Leasing allows you the flexibility to maintain a competitive edge by giving you today's best technology then allowing you to upgrade when the equipment has outlived its advantage.

Fixed payments through the term of the lease
Unlike bank lines of credit that usually have variable rates, lease payments are fixed no matter what happens in the market. By choosing to lease you won't be a victim of skyrocketing interest rates. Remember the 80's when rates rose from 9% to over 20% in one year? That can't happen with leasing. With payments fixed throughout the duration of the lease, customers will never have to worry about an annual utility rate increase which has averaged 5% nationally over the past decade.

Significant tax and accounting advantages
A lease is paid for with payment before tax dollars rather than after tax dollars. Leasing eliminates the need for complicated depreciation schedules since lease payments are generally line-item expenses on your P&L statement. And since lease payments can usually be treated as a pre-tax business expense you can reduce your taxes by leasing your wind turbine. Lease payments can be a 100% tax-deductible operation expense. Paying cash for equipment automatically adds 30-40% to the cost when you realize that cash = profits and taxes are paid on profits. Leasing is the right choice! It minimizes demands on cash flow, eliminates obsolescence, keeps your bank lines open, saves on taxes and shelters you from the utility market rate increase.
