Flexible Financing

1. One of the advantages of financing is that training, shipping, installation, software and preventive maintenance CAN be financed and included in the financing payments. Unlike loan financing, these costs, also known as “soft costs” can be included in the financing agreement.

1. Application is submitted
2. We request any other financial information that is needed
3. After approval, documents are prepared for signature
4. After signed documents are received, a purchase order is issued
5. Equipment is delivered

Insurance is required for the duration of the finance agreement. An Insurance Authorization page will be included with the initial document package. We can reach out to request the certificates of property and liability on your behalf.

Yes. This is known as a sale-leaseback. We can consider Sale Leaseback transactions, assuming the purchase took place within 60 days of the approval/review date and funded within 90 days of original purchase date.

Here are a few ways equipment financing can benefit your company:

• 100% Financing. Financing covers 100% of the equipment cost with room to add soft costs including training, installation, and maintenance.
• No Down Payment. A security deposit equal to two months rental payments is usually all that is required.
• Possible tax savings*. If a company is in the 34% tax bracket and has a finance agreement with a monthly payment of $500, the payment may be reduced to $330 – that’s a monthly savings of $170 ($500 x 34%) or $2040 annually. *Consult your tax advisor.
• Flexibility. Customize a lease to fit your particular situation with skip payments or seasonal payments.
• Use inflation to your advantage. If you pay cash for your equipment, you pay with today’s dollars at today’s value. Through financing, you pay with next year’s inflated dollars, and the next, and the next.
• Increase profits immediately.

With financing, you only need to cover the monthly payment for the new equipment to be profitable from the first month. Example of the cost effectiveness of a finance agreement: A monthly payment of $500 divided by 30 days = a daily cost of only $16.67! Divide $16.67 by 8 work-day hours to get an hourly cost of $2.36!

• Preserve bank credit lines. Financing doesn’t affect your bank borrowing limits. You still have 100% of your credit available.
• Avoid obsolescence. Upgrade finances are easy with most modern equipment always available.
• Conserve working capital. Cash isn’t tied up in overhead, it’s free for income producing investments. Financing improves cash flow and does not require a down payment. You can acquire the equipment and software you need without tying up capital with 100% financing. Use your working capital for other areas of your business such as expansion, improvements, marketing or R&D.
• Financing agreements may have accounting benefits. Monthly payments may be deductible as operating expenses rather than accounting for the equipment as an asset
• Combine Multiple Vendors: Combine products from multiple vendors into one easy monthly payment.
• Speed and Simplicity: Financing approvals can be obtained in hours and can allow you to respond quickly to new opportunities with minimal documentation and red tape. With financing, inclusion of your financial statements is generally not necessary if your transaction amount is below $150,000.

TAX BENEFITS:  The IRS does not consider an operating lease to be a purchase, but rather a tax-deductible expense where the entire payment may be 100% tax deductible. The equipment is not recorded as an asset, nor does it become a long-term liability, and instead can be treated as an off balance sheet operating expense.

Tax treatments are determined by state and the end of term option [Buyout Option].  Documentation fees are taxable in California.  Sales tax will be collected and remitted to each state by Blue Street Capital, LLC.  Sales tax will always be based on the equipment location.
