What is equipment financing?

Equipment financing is a loan or lease used to purchase business equipment, with the equipment itself serving as collateral. Because the lender has a hard asset backing the deal, approval rates are high and rates are low — even for newer businesses and owners with moderate credit.

HL Hunt Funding arranges equipment loans and leases from $10,000 to $2,000,000 for vehicles, heavy machinery, medical devices, kitchen equipment, IT infrastructure, and more. New and used equipment are both eligible, and many programs finance 100% of the cost including soft costs like delivery and installation.

Section 179 of the tax code may allow you to deduct the full purchase price in the year you place the equipment in service, making financed equipment one of the most tax-efficient investments a business can make. Consult your tax advisor.

    Approval

    Most approvals within 24–48 hours for deals under $250,000.

  3. 3
    Vendor paid directly

FAQ

Equipment Financing FAQ

Still have a question? See the full FAQ.

Should I lease or finance equipment?

Finance if you plan to keep the equipment long term and want to own it. Lease if the equipment becomes obsolete quickly (technology, some medical devices) or you want lower monthly payments and the option to upgrade.

Can I finance used equipment?

Yes. Most programs finance used equipment up to 10–15 years old, depending on the asset type.
