Turning Canadian Business Equipment financing Challenges Into Opportunities - Leasing Finance Works!

Over the last year or so business financing availability has declined for many firms. Let's examine how one strategy, business equipment financing - can be turned into an opportunity for your firm to succeed. Leasing finance works and we'll show you how with valuable inside tips.

How many options does your firm have when it acquires new equipment? To our way of thinking, only three - you purchase it, you lease it, or you arrange for term loan financing. The math around leasing finance often shows you it might be marginally more expensive than outright purchase. That’s because more financially astute firms have the ability, and do, to run extensive lease versus buy scenarios.

So why would you typically want to choose a financing option such as business equipment financing via a lease if it turns our it’s a bit more expensive.

We think the compelling reasons to utilize lease financing revolve around some very important ' real world ' issues such as quick access to credit, conserving operating working capital, accounting issues such as keeping the asset potentially off your balance sheet , and , getting down to brass tacks .. You as a user don’t want to end up owning a ' boat anchor ' of an asset that is still on your books but has little use or very little economic and financial value.

If your time is at a premium, and which business owners time is not, then you will surely be pleasantly surprised that the life cycle of acquiring your asset and financing it is much short via an equipment financing solution.

We have already shown you that financing options are limited, so why not choose the easiest and quickest route to approval - which more often than not is business equipment financing. The majority of approvals can be arranged within a week or so if you have a basic package that includes the asset quote or descriptions, your financials, and some basic business overview material on your firm and industry.

Many times the business owners challenge is what to do with equipment at the end of the lease - a lot of things can change in 3 or 5 years, which are the most typical lease terms. (By the way, it’s not unusual for some assets to be financed via leasing finance over 7 - 10 years; but you'll need to demonstrate company viability and asset value at end of term).

But back to that end of lease scenario - think of all the challenges - which might include: do you want to own the equipment, will you choose to return it, and will the asset be required for some indefinite time at the end of the lease...? Etc. All of those are unknowns, or challenges to your business financing. Yet leasing finance solves all of those - a carefully constructed operating lease can give allow you to face all three of the above challenges head on, and be in control of your asset destiny.

In summary - all business financing tends to be a challenge. In some cases of asset acquisition the challenge is layered with elements of risk and a lot of the unknown.
