Tailor-Made Plant Hire and Construction Finance Solutions
Merchant West provides tailor-made plant hire and construction finance solutions, including:
- Operating Lease: An operating lease allows you to use the equipment for a specified period without owning it. This option is ideal for businesses that need equipment for a short-term project and/or prefer not to have the asset on their balance sheet.
- Operating Lease with Ownership: Similar to an operating lease, but with the option to purchase the equipment at the end of the lease term. This allows you the flexibility to decide whether to buy the equipment after you’ve used it or hand it back to Merchant West.
- Installment Sale: With this option, you can spread the cost of purchasing equipment over an agreed period, allowing you to manage your cash flow effectively while still investing in the necessary assets to grow your business. Importantly, it gives you automatic ownership of the assets upon payment of the final instalment.
- Sale and Leaseback: This option allows you to sell your existing unencumbered equipment to Merchant West and lease it back from us. This frees up critical capital that may be tied up in your paid-up assets while still allowing you to use the equipment in your daily operations.
- Rent-to-Own Contracts: This type of agreement provides you with the option of renting the necessary equipment with the option of owning it at the end of the rental period at a nominal cost. It’s a flexible construction finance solution that combines the benefits of renting with the option to purchase the assets, thus providing the opportunity to build your asset base.
