Understanding Equipment Financing

📋

Loan vs. Lease: Which Is Right for You?

Equipment loans result in ownership. Leases offer flexibility and potential tax advantages. The right choice depends on your use case, cash flow, and tax position. We'll help you decide.

How Fast Can You Really Fund?

Most VCG transactions go from application to funded in 2–5 business days. Straightforward deals with complete documentation can fund in 24 hours. Here's what affects timing.

📊

What We Look at in Underwriting

We evaluate business fundamentals, equipment value, cash flow patterns, and your industry. Credit score matters, but it's not the whole story. Here's what we actually review.

💰

Section 179 and Equipment Financing

Section 179 allows businesses to deduct the full cost of qualifying equipment in the year it's placed in service — even when financed. This can create significant tax advantages.

🔧

Financing New vs. Used Equipment

We finance both new and used equipment. Used equipment can offer significant value, but lenders evaluate age, condition, and market value differently. Here's what you need to know.
