Need heavy equipment financing but concerned about your credit score? You’re not alone. Many businesses struggle to get the funds for the machinery they need. But don’t let your credit history keep you from getting the tools to grow your business. With some preparation and the right approach, you can become more creditworthy and more likely to be approved for heavy equipment financing.
At Lease2Grow, we know how credit scores work with heavy equipment financing. We’ll show you the way and provide the funding.
Why Your Credit Score Matters
Your credit score is key when applying for heavy equipment financing. It’s a snapshot of your creditworthiness and debt management. A higher score means you’re a better borrower and more likely to be approved and get good rates.
Tips to Improve Your Credit Score for Heavy Equipment Financing
- Timely Payments: Pay all bills on time – credit cards, loans, utilities. That’s the biggest factor in your score. Even paying the minimum is good financial behaviour.
- Low Credit Utilization: Use less than 10% of your credit. That shows lenders you don’t need credit and are financially smart.
- Fewer Credit Applications: Each application triggers a hard inquiry, temporarily lowering your score. Only apply for financing when necessary.
- Monitor Your Credit Report: Review your report regularly for errors or discrepancies. In Canada, Equifax and TransUnion offer free copies.
