How Does Equipment Rental Work?

When using an Equipment Rental, the financier buys the equipment on behalf of the customer and rents it to them for fixed payments over a fixed period.

The customer simply makes fixed monthly rent payments, and at the end of the contract either hand back the equipment to the financier (with no more to pay), continues the rental agreement or buys the equipment outright at market value.

  Rented equipment is not considered to be a business asset (or the debt a business liability)
