WELCOME !

Thanks for dropping in for some hopefully great business info and on occasion some hopefully not too sarcastic comments on the state of Business Financing in Canada and what we are doing about it !

In 2004 I founded 7 PARK AVENUE FINANCIAL. At that time I had spent all my working life, at that time - Over 30 years in Commercial credit and lending and Canadian business financing. I believe the commercial lending landscape has drastically changed in Canada. I believe a void exists for business owners and finance managers for companies, large and small who want service, creativity, and alternatives.

Every day we strive to consistently deliver business financing that you feel meets the needs of your business. If you believe as we do that financing solutions and alternatives exist for your firm we want to talk to you. Our purpose is simple: we want to deliver the best business finance solutions for your company.

Capital Or Operating Lease . Your Choice ! The Why And When Of Leasing Finance When Your Company Leases Assets



Canadian Lease Finance Solutions – Why Not Now?

Information on capital and operating lease solutions . Canadian leasing finance choices when it comes to your asset leases .



Leasing finance in Canada. Canadian business owners who are seeking rates, terms and structures for asses that generate (hopefully) revenues have a number of choices, one of which is the type of leases they enter into. The Operating and Capital lease is in fact the main choice or decision point.

The ability to free working capital and not deploy it into the purchase of fixed assets is in fact a key benefit of leasing in Canada. And as most business owners hopefully know, you also have the ability to finance used equipment when it makes sense.

The concept of matching is very important when it comes to leasing finance in Canada. Your firm has the ability to use the asset to operate as well as generate profits, but cash outflows, i.e. the monthly payment are made over a pre-determined amount of time.

Getting back to leasing finance choices your ability to return, upgrade, or extend a lease is in fact the reason why most business owners choose an OPERATING LEASE scenario.

Does every business owner / financial manager know the benefits of leases? We're never 100% sure when we talk to clients, but the main benefits are 100% financing of the asset, although some firms we point out may be required on occasion to make a down payment of security deposit. Your overall credit quality will determine advance payment requirements, as well as your rate.

Most clients who are concerned about the ' rate ' in the transaction are in fact surprised when we tell them the actual rate or pricing is in fact much more in control of the lessee - Thats you !.. when you understand your firm’s credit strength and can demonstrate it .That's because leasing in the current 2012 Canadian business environment is in fact highly competitive.

Using the services, as an example, of an advisor you have the ability to access the right type of leases when it comes to price, term, etc.

Cash flow management is critical today to day business in Canada. Knowing your payments are fixed allows you to manage cash flow and be proactive when it comes to sourcing assets that make sense for your firm.

The world of tax, accounting and balance sheet implications can be somewhat ' murky ' when it comes to an operating or capital lease solution. Again, that advisor, or even your external accountant can in fact help you in that regard, and that advice is usually free.

Technology, as no other asset class is, makes a great case for leasing. Specific needs, obsolescence, off balance sheet financing, and reduced leasing costs play a key role in any aspect of tech finance.

Speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor when it comes to choosing an asset finance strategy that makes sense for your firm.
