Purchasing special equipment is a significant investment, especially when it comes to construction, logistics or utilities. When the budget is limited or equipment is needed urgently, many companies and private entrepreneurs consider leasing used special equipment or lending as the best solution. In this article, we will discuss how to obtain financing without delays and pitfalls.

Why Financing Isn’t About Borrowing, It’s About Managing Resources

The key purpose of leasing or lending is not just to defer payment, but to:

  • speed up the delivery of equipment to the site;
  • spread expenses over several months or years;
  • maintain a financial cushion for other business tasks.

This is especially relevant if the equipment is needed “yesterday” or its rapid payback is planned through participation in projects.

Leasing: Main Features and Benefits

Leasing is a rent with the right to buy. You use the equipment as if it were your own, but legally it belongs to the lessor until full payment is made.

Advantages:

  • no deposit required;
  • faster than a bank (less checks);
  • you can include service, insurance and redemption at residual value in the contract;
  • Suitable for both legal entities and sole proprietors ( leasing of special equipment for individuals is a reality, not a myth).

When is it more profitable to take equipment on credit

If you want to become an owner right away, a loan is your option. This is especially true for those who:

  • works with VAT (can be included in expenses);
  • has experience and a transparent credit history;
  • does not want to depend on the residual value of the contract.

Terms and typical requirements

To purchase special equipment on lease or credit, as a rule, it is required:

  • registration of a sole proprietorship or legal entity;
  • stable income or turnover (proof of solvency);
  • basic package of documents (passport, tax identification number, financial statements);
  • for new companies – surety.

Some leasing companies also provide leasing of used special equipment for legal entities without a down payment, if the equipment passes diagnostics and has a transparent history.

How to Simplify the Process and Avoid Bureaucracy

  1.  Work through a dealer rather than directly with a bank.
    Companies like TAD Group already have proven leasing partners.
  2.  Prepare the technical passport and technical report in advance. This will speed up approval.
  3.  Choose equipment with a proven service life.
    Many leasing structures do not work with “dark horses” without a service history.
  4.  Apply to several companies at once. This increases the chance of getting better conditions.

What is important to consider when making calculations

Don’t just look at the percentage. Check carefully:

  • payment schedule (annuity or classic);
  • penalties for early repayment;
  • early redemption option;
  • Is insurance, taxes, shipping included?

Sometimes leasing used special equipment with a comprehensive rate is more profitable than a “cheap” loan with a bunch of additional expenses.
