Leases

Leasing is a great financing option for saving costs, improving cash flow, managing taxes and gaining added control over your balance sheet.

We provide local service for the life of the lease.
The leases we offer are the leases we own. Should you have any questions or needs, you can talk to people you know and trust.

When may a lease be right for you?

  • If you are adding a new building that will result in lost capital.
  • If you are investing in production equipment (i.e., greenhouse or winery equipment).
  • If you want to capture the tax advantages of a lease. Tax deductions may be available when you lease that can save you money and improve your bottom line.
  • If you want to preserve your capital for other investments. In most cases, there is no down payment requirement for a lease, and leasing allows you to maintain your line of credit availability for other investments.
