What to know about Equipment financing
Equipment finance covers vehicles, plant, machinery, tools, appliances, office furniture and computer equipment. The first decision is not which financier to use, it is whether to lease or to buy. business.gov.au frames it simply: leasing means you rent the item from a company that owns it, buying means you pay for and own it outright, and you can borrow to do the second.
