Equipment financing
Equipment financing is a loan structure where the machinery, vehicle, or technology you're purchasing serves as collateral. This arrangement often means lower rates than unsecured borrowing because the lender holds a security interest in the asset. If your landscaping company in Bullard needs a skid-steer or your medical practice near Christus Trinity Mother Frances wants diagnostic imaging equipment, the item itself backs the loan. Repayment terms typically align with the equipment's useful life, so a ten-year truck loan won't outlast the truck. As a broker, we shop your request across multiple equipment lending companies to find terms that fit your cash flow and the asset's depreciation curve.
Equipment financing
Lenders review your business credit profile, time in operation, and revenue history. Most equipment loan business programs require at least six months of operating history, though startups with strong personal guarantees sometimes qualify. Your industry matters: a welding shop in Swan buying a CNC plasma table will meet different underwriting criteria than a freight company in Lindale financing a fleet of semi-trailers. Lenders also assess the equipment's resale value since it secures the note. We help you assemble financials, vendor quotes, and any down-payment documentation before submitting to our network of equipment financing companies.
Tyler businesses use small business equipment financing to acquire manufacturing machinery, restaurant ovens, construction excavators, delivery vans, medical devices, and IT infrastructure. Consider a commercial HVAC contractor based on South Broadway who landed a contract to retrofit the climate systems in several Whitehouse schools. Rather than drain savings to buy two new service trucks and a crane, the owner worked with us to structure an equipment loan that spread payments over five years, preserving cash for payroll and parts inventory during the project ramp-up.
