Equipment Leasing

Use equipment through a lease without owning it outright.

Equipment leasing lets you use equipment for a set term in exchange for regular payments — you don't own the asset during the lease. At the end, depending on the lease type, you may return it, renew, or purchase it. Leasing can preserve capital and keep equipment current, but you don't build equity the way financing does.

Minimum Requirements & Program Details

These are starting requirements for selected programs. Availability and final terms depend on the funding partner and underwriting. Other options may be available. Meeting a minimum does not guarantee approval.

Documents to prepare

We provide the exact checklist for your program after reviewing your request — you don't need to order an appraisal or gather everything before reaching out.

Sensitive documents are handled through our invitation-only secure process — never on the public intake.

Initial Review

  • Equipment quote or specification
  • Credit application

Additional Underwriting & Closing

  • Business bank statements as required by the selected program
  • Business tax returns (when applicable)
  • Personal identification
