If your current construction equipment has reached the stage where repairs and maintenance are becoming more expensive and more frequent, or you find yourself having to take on costly short-term rentals for some equipment that you do not have, then it may be time to upgrade or enlarge your equipment pool.

With a lease, you\u2019re not buying the equipment, you\u2019re taking on a long-term rental. Depending on the type of lease you choose, (finance lease or operating lease), you may have the option to buy the construction equipment at contract end for a pre-agreed sum, (which could be as low as \u20ac1 but is typically the residual value of the equipment \u2013 which means what it\u2019s worth in used condition).\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because you\u2019re not repaying the whole cost of the equipment, leasing usually requires lower monthly payments than a business loan. You may also pay a smaller down payment \u2013 perhaps equal to one or two month\u2019s repayment instalments.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you choose not to buy the equipment at the end of the lease, (or you have chosen an operating lease that forbids it), the equipment goes back to the lender. You would then need to take out a new lease and obtain new equipment. (Which could allow you to obtain more modern and up to date machinery).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some lessors (lenders) may give you the option to extend the lease if you prefer to keep the equipment but do not wish to pay the residual.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8d18181 elementor-widget elementor-widget-ucaddon_pros\" data-id=\"8d18181\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"ucaddon_pros.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t \n <div class=\"pros\">\n <div class=\"header-pro\">\n <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/wp-content\/themes\/swoopMW50\/assets\/images\/pros.svg\" width=\"72\" height=\"72\" alt=\"Pros\">\n <p class=\"title\">Advantages of leasing construction equipment<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"content-pro\">\n <ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pay a lower monthly sum.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">May pay a lower down payment.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Could allow you to obtain better and more expensive equipment than a business loan.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No added collateral required.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">May have the option to buy the equipment at contract end.<\/span><\/li><\/ul> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4515131 elementor-widget elementor-widget-ucaddon_cons\" data-id=\"4515131\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"ucaddon_cons.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t \n <div class=\"cons\">\n <div class=\"header-cons\">\n <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/wp-content\/themes\/swoopMW50\/assets\/images\/cons.svg\" width=\"72\" height=\"72\" alt=\"Cons\">\n <p class=\"title\">Disadvantages of leasing construction equipment<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"content-cons\">\n <ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">May not own the equipment at contract end.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There may be restrictions on the types of equipment you can lease.<\/span><\/li><\/ul> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4a22a89 question elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4a22a89\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What do I need to qualify for an equipment loan?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d34846b answer elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d34846b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although every lender will have their own qualifying criteria, some fundamental rules apply.
