A Common Sense Way To Choose Canadian Business Leasing Companies For Equipment Loans – A Lease & Loan Alternative

Make the Right Choice for Lease Finance in Canada



Information for Canadian business on choosing the best method to select leasing companies for equipment loans – A lease and loan alternative selection process .




Rest assured you're in the same boat as thousands of your competitors - and whats that boat about? Simply not knowing who or what to turn to when selecting business leasing companies for an equipment loan for your business. More importantly, leases and loans that makes sense, not the kind where you wonder if your firm got a transaction at market rates, terms, and structures.

So is there a fast track to selecting the right lease finance company for asset financing that works, and makes sense? There are a couple of challenges we try and help clients overcome, not the least of which is the fact that there are tens and literally hundreds of firms all across Canada that ' seemingly ' fit your needs. And, and it’s a big and... if you have all the time in the world to develop relationships with these hundreds of firms, well then... let’s just say we're jealous!

But not knowing who to turn to can in fact, as many clients have experienced, cost you tens and thousands of dollars, depending on your past experience with leasing companies in Canada. One alternative is of course to send a lease bid document out to a large number or select number of parties. That makes sense for government agencies and large corporations probably, but not for small and medium sized businesses in Canada.

The reality is that all those lessors out there have their own unique business models, and are you ready... because this could be painful... they are going to try and fit your firm in a box . In a box? We're talking about the ' credit box ‘... that elusive credit policy that seems to be understood, by the lessor, but not perhaps yourself. You see each firm (who by that way had to go out and borrow money to lend it to you) has a credit box. In that box is a set of criteria around asset types, deal sizes, ratios, covenants, personal guarantees, outside collateral, years in business... well we think you get the drill

And oh yes, if there were one type of business equipment leasing company in Canada the search for asset financing might not be so daunting. In reality those hundreds of different firms are actually in 4 sub categories.

Those sub categories are bank lessors, independent leasing companies, captives (ouch! that even sounds painful - do they have a box also?) , and insurance companies.

So do we have a favorite and a recommended solution for each and every business owner and financial manager in Canada? Actually we do its number 5 in our list of 4! We're talking about an independent, experienced, trusted, and credible Canadian business financing advisor... one who should be an expert in lease financing. Utilize their experience for market knowledge, eliminating financing sourcing time, and ensuring you are getting market rates in the current low interest rate environment of 2011 where in fact lease financing is very competitive and wants your business. Adding value and saving your firm money is a powerful double punch in Canadian asset financing.
