The Equipment Lease Experts

... by lending you our expertise in every aspect of the equipment lease process, including lease placement, administration and end-of-term issues.

* Before you make the lease decision, we save you time:

* Plan Your Project. We listen to your project parameters, needs and expectations and prepare an action plan, including requests for proposals (RFPs) which will bring you apples-to-apples responses.

* Consolidate the Credit Application Process. We put together one complete credit package that can be used for multiple applications.

* Find the Money. We place your lease to a funding source based on your credit profile, size of the acquisition, timing of your project and type of equipment you are acquiring.

* Review Lease Proposals and Responses to RFPs. Our analysis and review, and our comprehensive format gives you a true comparison that will provide you with a viable interpretation of proposals, including pricing, structure, costs and contractual elements.

* Lease Contract Review and Analysis. Once you receive lease contracts we review all documents carefully, including the acquisition and order process, compare them to the proposals and provide you with a concise report including potential conflicts, restrictions and costly lease provisions. We will also contact and check references.

* Project Administration. We can administrate every part of your lease process. We become the intermediary for your firm, freeing you from the all the "administrivia."

* Asset Management. Inventory tracking is mandatory, especially on larger projects.

* Lease Activity Reporting. Every order and payment is tracked and reported throughout any active open lease period.

* Calendar and Tickle. We confirm important lease activity dates and provide you with calendaring of important dates as well as follow-up service.

* Lease Summary. All leases, lease schedules and pending matters are placed on a concise, easy-to-read report that ties in the lease documentation and any pricing adjustments to the individual transactions.

* Contract Review. Don't know when your leases end? We can find this out as well as discuss, in detail, what the contracts provide for at end-of-lease.

* End-of-Term and Buyout Negotiations. In addition to interpreting the end-of-term options, we can act as the intermediary between you and the lessor. (See our Recent Success! page for an illustration.)

We are an NAELB Best Practices Broker Ô    In 2008, the National Association of Equipment Lease Brokers (NAELB) launched an ethics certification program.  Our company was one of the first members to apply for and pass the exam on the first attempt

The NAELB offers this certification for their members in good standing, of at least two years.  The designation recognizes one’s ability to apply the Code of Ethics to everyday business practices.  Though the certification process, we display that we have demonstrated our ability to apply the Code to general business practices in situations that we may face during our daily business operations.  Those passing the Ethics exam have earned the right to utilize the “NAELB Best Practices BrokerÔ” certification that is licensed by the NAELB.

Perfection is an illusion, but we aim high and come close!
