Business Equipment Loans Defined

Businesses of all sizes rely on equipment, machinery, and vehicles to fulfill their core operations. However, purchasing costly equipment requires a significant upfront expense and can impact working capital necessary to maintain business as usual. Equipment loans, therefore, are an ideal option for companies needing to upgrade, replace, or purchase new equipment to fuel growth.

For instance, construction businesses can leverage an equipment loan to fund the purchase of heavy machinery. Further, farmers can purchase tilling equipment with a loan and free up capital for other necessary expenses. Overall, equipment loans can be a viable tool for growing businesses.

How Equipment Loans Work

Like many loans, the amount borrowed for business-related equipment covers most of the purchase. Therefore, qualified borrowers must present a down payment. The new equipment then serves as collateral for the length of the loan and companies can begin utilizing it for business functions immediately.

Approved borrowers are responsible for periodic payments of principal and interest throughout the length of their loan. The terms vary from a few months to several years, depending on the equipment value, interest rate, and a company’s ability to repay. Once a borrower repays the total amount, the business owns the asset.

How to Get an Equipment Loan

You must meet specific requirements to qualify for an equipment loan, such as:

  • A personal credit score. As a business owner, be prepared to show your personal credit history and validate your ability to repay the loan.
  • A solid business plan. Your business plan is a written guide to your future success. It outlines your current cash flow, sets realistic goals for growth, and identifies your target market and how your products or services meet their needs.
  • Positive cash flow statements. Running a business is all about ensuring more money comes in and less goes out. Accurate, ethical, and healthy financial statements are beneficial in demonstrating your repayment ability.
  • Available down payment funds. Down payments differ according to equipment value, loan terms, and interest rates. A Bank of Old Monroe lending team member will review your financials to determine loan specifics. 

Benefits of Equipment Financing

Equipment financing offers many advantages for businesses, including:

  • More money on hand. Rather than spending a large outlay of cash on heavy machinery outright, equipment loans allow you to repay the cost over time and provide an opportunity to grow your business checking account to cover payroll, rent, and other expenses.
  • Purchase up-to-date equipment. Financing allows you to upgrade or replace your existing equipment in a budget-friendly manner.
  • Business growth. Whether you’re adding a product or expanding your service offerings, affordable equipment financing allows you to fuel business growth.
