Negotiated Options (should be discussed at the beginning of a leasing contract):
  • Purchase the equipment at any time prior to the end of your lease term
  • Purchase the equipment for fair market value or a predetermined price at the end of the lease period
  • Purchase the equipment after 1 year for principal only (must qualify at lease inception)
  • Continue to rent the equipment month-to-month after the lease period ends
  • Upgrade to newer equipment and enter into a new lease agreement
