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.

Equipment Financing : Exclusive Strategies For Asset Financing










Equipment Financing : Your Rock When It Comes To New Assets For Your Business



OVERVIEW – Information on equipment financing in Canada . The ability to benefit from using lease finance to acquire new ( and used ) assets to grow business is key to long term success





Equipment financing in Canada is both wanted... and needed. As the Canadian economy continues to improve your business has the need for new or replacement equipment.

How do you do that efficiently, economically, and cash flow smart? Finance those new assets! Let's dig in.


Pretty well every asset can be financed.

Computers ('Information technology" 'IT ‘)
Plant and production equipment
Software - (Yes, software!)
Rolling stock - i.e. trucks, trailers, etc
Specialized Equipment

Etc! Emphasis on Etc!

So what lease partner should you deal with?

Many of our customers focus on 'rate ', or in effect the price. It goes without saying that your firms want a competitive rate, and clients are surprised when we say they get to pick their own rate! What do we mean by that? We simply mean that your company's overall credit quality will always determine the rate and structure and term of the lease. However, in order to achieve that best rate or ' pricing ' you need to ensure your company is presented in the best light possible.

The right lease advisor/partner will allow you to reap some, or all of the following ten benefits:

Conserving cash

Cash flow predictability

Ability to use cash for more pressing current liabilities

An alternative to ' the bank'

Letting new assets improve your processes/production

Flexibility re adding on, upgrading, trading in

No equity give up

Allows your other borrowings to stay current

Reap the accounting benefits - i.e. depreciation, etc

Stay competitive with what your competitors are doing



How is lease approval decisions made? No one factor determines an equipment lease financing approval. It's quite frankly what our firm likes to call the 'weight of evidence '. That simply means that several key factors such as your financial statement health, the current state of your industry, the asset quality, and your ability to demonstrate re payment are the key factors in any lease financing approval.

But wait - there's more!

1.You don't have to be an established business - lease financing can be for a start up or emerging company also

2. Your equipment doesn't necessarily have to be new, it can be used if you can demonstrate its value and that it has been maintained and still has a useful economic life

3. You might already own an asset - let's say it is not financed, you can lease it back to the lease firm and generate cash flow and working capital from that transaction!

4. Banks in general in Canada do not provide lease financing - two of the Canadian banks have lease financing operations but credit quality must be quite good to achieve bank type lease financing

5 . Being declined does not necessarily mean that you can't get the equipment financing - we simply re structure the transaction to meet the approval criteria - that might mean a simple restructuring of the lease


Seek out and speak to an equipment finance expert!
