What type of lease is best for me?

There are four types of lease – you decide which one suits your business best:
Fully maintained operating lease – This lease includes the expenses of maintenance for the term of the lease, meaning no extra outgoings for scheduled servicing, maintenance and registration. It’s a great option if you want certainty of costs in relation to the leased asset.
Non-maintained operating lease – If you’ve got the workshop, staff and know how, a non-maintained lease may suit you better. Throughout the term of the lease you will be responsible for the servicing and maintenance of the leased machine.
Sale and leaseback – This solution is ideal for those who own all the equipment they need but need to free up some capital. We source a funder who will buy your existing owned or financed assets and then lease them back to you as either a fully maintained or non-maintained operating lease.
Finance lease – A finance lease means that at the end of the lease term you are able to buy the asset. We will find a provider who will agree the equipment’s residual value at the end of term, meaning if you like it, you can keep it.
