Our Financing Solutions
What We Do
We are a leader in providing financing solutions for golf course equipment acquisitions that allow you to respond rapidly to changing conditions in the dynamic sport-services marketplace.
We initiate equipment leases for golf cars, turf maintenance equipment, irrigation systems and clubhouse related products.
PNC Equipment Finance has specialized expertise in working with golf course management companies, individual golf courses, country clubs, resorts and municipalities to offer financing structures to meet diverse business and budgetary requirements. We offer a wide variety of financial tools, including master lease and master loan agreements that minimize paperwork and speed up the equipment delivery and funding process.
Products and Programs
In addition to the traditional lease programs, PNC Equipment Finance offers special programs tailored for the golf industry.
Easy Lease
PNC Equipment Finance offers access of up to $300,000 for equipment acquisition by simply completing an easy one-page credit application. The application will be credit decisioned within 24 hours, and does not require the submission of detailed financial statements or other documents.
Standard Leases
For projects exceeding $300,000 a typical credit application package is required with two years of financial statements. We offer leases with a variety of end of lease options including: Fair market value (FMV), conditional sales contract (CSC), dollar out and fixed dollar payments at lease end. Lease terms range from 24 to 60 months.
Master Leases
PNC Equipment Finance offers low cost lines-of-credit that require no fees or payments for the unused portion of your credit line. Master agreements allow you to complete one set of documents and add schedules as you acquire more equipment. The line-of-credit and Master Lease Agreement concepts save you both time and money and provide you with all-encompassing financial solutions that allow you to bundle a variety of products and services into one monthly payment.
Seasonal Payment Programs
To meet the unique needs of the golf course industry, PNC Equipment Finance offers seasonal payment programs that are designed to match the course's cash flows with lease payments. Under this program, monthly payments are higher during those times of the year when cash is more available due to higher play and club utilization. Subsequently, payments are lower during low play times.
