Specialty Equipment Lease Financing

By Wade Henderson

The task of finding Equipment Loans for your business can itself be a daunting task to undertake in addition to running your company. Many people find that using a Professional Commercial Finance Broker cuts down on the time and frustration of acquiring Equipment Loans.

Whether your business uses Gym Equipment or Construction Equipment the Business Equipment Financing can be acquired in this manner.

One of the main misconceptions in regards to brokers in general is that they cost money to use. While it is true they do get paid for their services, with Business Equipment Leasing, most brokers are paid by the lender so you are not responsible to do that.

On some complicated deals there may be a retainer requested by the broker to cover their expenses while they are working for you, but if your deal is relatively simple like Gym Equipment Leasing for products like a Treadmill or Weight Lifting Equipment you can expect there not be an upfront fee. If you are looking to finance a very difficult transaction with equipment that is very unique, then the broker may ask for a fee up front as there will be extensive work in placing your loan.

Similar to a Business Mortgage the amortization period will vary. In Business Equipment Leasing the term is usually from 1 year to 10 years depending on many factors including the industry, age of the equipment, credit the list goes on.

In your quest for the Best Business Equipment Financing you can expect to have to fill out a Commercial Loan application which will generally include a Personal Net Worth Statement. The application will use your business credit information as well as your personal credit information. You will need to supply up to the last 3 years of financial statements as well as your interim financial. All this information may not be needed for your Equipment Lease Financing but you should be prepared to furnish it.
