Hire Purchase
If a business wishes to buy equipment outright, then Hire Purchase can provide a tailored and cost-effective alternative to loan or overdraft funding.
It enables your business to benefit from using the equipment straight away while repaying the asset on terms agreed at outset which suit your requirements. At the end of the term agreement, ownership of the equipment is normally obtained for a nominal fee.
- Payment terms available up to 84 months
- Various deposit options available
- VAT Payable upfront but we can facilitate deferrals between 1-3 months if required
- Final balloon payment can be included where beneficial to help the repayments
- You own the asset at the end of the term. An option to purchase fee will be included on the final payment.
- On balance sheet funding
