A lease is an arrangement for you to, basically, rent equipment for a specific amount of time. At the end of that time, you can return the equipment and the payments are over. With some leases, you have the option of purchasing the equipment for a greatly reduced price.
Any company, association, organization or municipality (city, county, state and federal government) can arrange to lease with Access Financial.
Generally, it’s one business day upon receipt of the lease application.
Unlike a loan on direct purchases (which can require a large down-payment), a lease typically requires the first and last month payments, which are applied to the lease payment schedule. There is also a nominal documentation fee required to cover costs to the lease documents, as well as the expense of filing the UCC-1 financing statements for your specific state.
