Get the machine. Keep your cash.
Finance trucks, machinery, medical and kitchen equipment, or borrow against assets you already own. The asset backs the deal, so approvals are easier and rates stay sharp.
The equipment does the heavy lifting.
Because the equipment itself secures the financing, lenders take on less risk. That usually means better rates than an unsecured loan and approvals for businesses that are still young.
We can also structure financing against other assets you own, like vehicles, receivables or existing equipment, to raise working capital without a large down payment.
- Collateral
- The equipment being financed
- New or used
- Both, with age limits on some assets
- Soft costs
- Delivery and install can often be included
- Approval
- Often valid for about 60 days
Who qualifies, and how.
2+ years in business
Lowest down payments and the best rates.
Under 2 years in business
Still very financeable, usually with 10% to 20% down or a slightly higher rate.
Fair credit, good asset
The value of the equipment carries a lot of the weight.
What owners use it for.
- Trucks, trailers and fleet vehicles
- Construction and manufacturing machinery
- Medical, dental and lab equipment
- Restaurant and commercial kitchen equipment
- Borrowing against equipment you already own
Shop with an approval in hand.
Good equipment and good prices go fast. Getting pre-approved before you find the machine means you can move the moment it shows up, and negotiate like a cash buyer.
| Equipment financing | Unsecured loan | |
|---|---|---|
| Rates | 7.5% – 12% | Usually higher |
| Collateral | The equipment | Personal guarantee |
| Approval for young businesses | Easier | Harder |

Equipment & Asset-Backed, answered.
Can I finance used equipment?
Yes. Many lenders finance used equipment, with limits on age and condition for some assets like trucks.
Do I need a down payment?
Established businesses often put 0% to 10% down. Newer businesses typically put 10% to 20% down.
Can I include delivery and installation?
Often, yes. Many lenders let you roll those soft costs into the financing.
Should I lease or finance?
It depends on how long you will keep the equipment and how you want to handle taxes. We can lay out both and you can check with your accountant.
