How it works

With an equipment loan you own the equipment from day one and the lender holds a lien until it's paid off. With a lease, the lessor owns it and you pay to use it, often with an end-of-term buyout ($1 out or fair market value).

Providers weigh the equipment's resale value, your credit and time in business. New businesses can often qualify with a larger down payment.
