LOAN OR LEASE?

Which financial solution is right for you? If equity and ownership are your priorities, a loan may be your best bet. If you want flexibility and a way to free up cash for other needs, consider a lease.

Financing Options

Do your plans for the future call for more cash than you have on hand? We can help. Our financing options provide the capital you need to purchase equipment, expand your business or manage day-to-day operations at your disposal. Flexible rates, terms and lengths make it easy for you to find a solution that fits your budget and goals.

 

“IF IT WASN’T FOR THEIR FLEXIBILITY AND THE COMPETITIVE RATES THEY PROVIDE US,
WE WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO PROVIDE OUR CUSTOMERS WITH THE PRICING AND
SUPPORT THEY DESERVE.”

Kevin Manning, Laser Grading and Development

 

LOANS

Want to own that new or used machine right away but pay for it over time? A traditional loan may be the right option for you.

  • Get right to work and build equity at the same time
  • Choose from flexible payment plans

Equipment Leasing Options

Life is all about choices, and so is equipment leasing from Cat Financial. Low monthly payments free up cash for other priorities. Flexible return and purchase options let you turn in equipment early, keep it longer or even buy it outright — you decide based on your project schedules and business needs.

 

“We’ve been leasing quite a number of products, and we do that because Cat Financial offers things that typical lenders can’t do for us. We like to use them because we have that flexibility.”

Lyndon Larson, Tiffany Construction
