One Size Rarely Fits All

Broadleaf doesn't start with a product, we start with a conversation. Understanding the equipment, the timeline, and the capital goals behind a project comes first; matching the right instrument, or combination of instruments, comes second. That's what a strategic partner does differently.

Our Equipment Leasing and Financing Solutions

Broadleaf works across several financing instruments, mixing and matching the customized combination that keeps your project flexible and fully funded.

Fair Market Value (FMV) Leasing

We specialize in FMV leases that give you the flexibility at the end of your term to renew, return, or purchase the equipment at a fair price.

Soft Costs Financing

Soft costs are intangibles like installation, configuration, training, and software licensing, which can be just as important as the equipment itself. With Broadleaf, you can finance soft costs right alongside the hard assets, so everything gets funded together as a complete project.

CapEx, Loans, and Sale-Leasebacks

Leasing isn't the only tool available. Broadleaf also structures financing through loans, capital expenditure instruments, sale-leasebacks, and more. We help you get the equipment you need while preserving cash on hand.

Custom Financing

No two deals look exactly alike. When a project doesn't fit neatly into a single instrument, Broadleaf evaluates it strategically and builds custom equipment financing using the right combination of tools — leasing, loans, sale-leasebacks, or something in between — to get you to the outcome your business needs.

What is an FMV Lease?

Broadleaf specializes in Fair Market Value (FMV) leases, which let you use equipment for a set term, then decide what happens next: buy it at its fair market value, return it, or renew the lease, rather than committing to ownership upfront. That's different from a $1 buyout lease, which locks in ownership for a nominal fee at the end of the term regardless of the equipment's actual value. FMV leasing typically means lower payments during the term and more flexibility at the end, since you're not paying to own equipment you may not want to keep once the term is up.

What Sets Our Financing Apart

The details that make a lease work for your business, not just fund it.

Business-Aligned Financing

Rigid, one-size-fits-all equipment financing rarely matches how a business actually operates. Broadleaf structures financing around your specific situation instead of a fixed product, so the financing adapts to your business, not the other way around.

Fair and Friendly Terms

Most lessors profit from confusion at lease-end — overage charges, inflated residuals, and fees buried in fine print. We do things differently: clear, fair terms from day 1 that help you reduce your administrative burden and save on total costs.

Capital-Efficient Growth

Growth can stall when capital is tied up in equipment instead of available where it's needed next. Broadleaf structures financing that lets you flex and scale: add or reduce equipment, expand locations, and grow capacity – all without draining the cash and credit capacity your business needs for everything else.

Complete Project Financing

Projects run over budget when soft costs like installation, integration, and training get left out of the original financing and have to get funded separately. Unlike traditional lessors, we fund the complete project, equipment and services together in one agreement.

Equipment Financing FAQs

What is a Fair Market Value (FMV) lease?

A Fair Market Value (FMV) lease lets you use equipment for a set term, then decide whether to buy it at its fair market value, return it, or renew the lease. It's one of several financing instruments Broadleaf offers, matched to your situation.

‍

What's the difference between an FMV lease and a $1 buyout?

An FMV lease sets the buyout price at the equipment's fair market value when the term ends, while a $1 buyout locks in ownership upfront for a nominal fee regardless of that value.

‍

What is a sale-leaseback?

A sale-leaseback lets your business sell equipment it already owns to Broadleaf, then lease it back for continued use, converting owned equipment into cash without any disruption to your operations. It's one tool among several used to free up your capital for other priorities without giving up access to equipment you rely on.

‍

Can software and installation costs be included in financing?

Yes. Software licensing, installation, configuration, and other soft costs can be financed alongside the hardware itself. That's different from lessors who only finance the physical equipment and leave the rest for you to fund separately.

‍

How does Broadleaf decide which financing structure fits our deal?

Broadleaf starts by understanding your goals, equipment needs, and timeline, then matches the right instrument, or combination of instruments, to your specific situation.

‍

Is there a minimum deal size for these financing solutions?

Broadleaf doesn't work from a fixed minimum or maximum. We fund a wide range of projects, from a single piece of equipment to complex, multi-asset or multi-site needs.
