Why Lease?
According to the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association's most recent survey[1], companies of all sizes lease equipment and assets for three primary reasons:

- Apoyo para gestionar el crecimiento planificado de la compañía
Here are just a few of the reasons that equipment leasing may be more beneficial than other types of financing:
- 100 % de financiamiento disponible
- Typically, no business statements required for leases up to $75,000
- Customized payment schedules are available
- Soft up-front costs can be included in the monthly lease payment
- Your lease payments may be tax-deductible as a business expense (always consult your tax advisor as to any tax advantages that may be available with leasing)
Productos y programas
Fair Market Value lease - This lease structure will have the lowest monthly payment, the most flexibility for the customer and possible tax and accounting advantages (customer should always check with tax and accounting advisors as to advantages available with leasing). End-of-term options include: purchasing the equipment for its fair market value, returning the equipment to PNC or renewing the lease.
Fixed Purchase Option lease - This structure will generally have a slightly higher payment than the fair market value structure but provides a 'cap' to the purchase amount at lease termination. End-of-term options are the same as the Fair Market Value structure except purchase of equipment is 10% of the original equipment cost.
One Dollar Buyout lease - Similar to a loan but offers 100% financing and various soft costs can be included in the lease.
TRAC lease - This structure is used for over-the-road vehicles and large commercial vehicles. Includes a stated purchase amount at lease termination that is guaranteed by the customer.
There are other custom structures we offer, including seasonal payments, step up payments, skip payments and 90-day deferred payments.
Things to keep in mind:
With leasing, you are paying to use the equipment rather than to own it. Lease rates vary, depending on the lease structure, equipment type and term.
Even though you are not the owner of the equipment, you have control over payment to the equipment vendor. No payment is made to the equipment vendor until you have delivered a signed "Certificate of Acceptance" to PNC, confirming that you are authorizing payment to the vendor.
- A documentation fee will be due along with the first payment at lease closing.
- As with a loan, you, the lessee, will be responsible for any taxes, costs, assessments or fees associated with the purchase or use of the equipment including sales, use and personal property tax.
- Any taxes paid on behalf of the lessee will contain a small processing fee.
Payments are typically due on the first of the month. A pro-rated payment will be invoiced from the date of acceptance until lease commencement date.
