What it is
Turn assets you own into working capital
Equipment refinance, sometimes called equity release or a sale and lease back, lets you borrow against assets you already own outright. The equipment stays in your yard and stays earning, you simply unlock the cash that is tied up in it. It is a practical way to fund payroll, stock, a new contract or a tax bill without selling assets or taking on a traditional business loan.
We compare offers across a panel of 40+ lenders to find the structure that suits your cashflow, and many deals settle low-doc within 24 to 48 hours. If you are buying new gear instead, our equipment finance covers that, and for larger raises against real estate, property-backed business lending goes further.
What you can use it for

Why businesses choose Ventas
Keep using your gear
You refinance the asset, you do not sell it. The equipment stays on site and stays earning while the cash lands in your account.
Low-doc, no fuss
For established assets and clean profiles, many refinances go through without full financials or tax returns. Less paperwork, faster cash.
Cashflow that fits
We structure the term against the life left in the asset, so repayments suit your cashflow rather than straining it.
No selling, no downtime
This is the point of an equipment refinance. You free up the equity locked in machinery you already own, the gear never leaves your yard, and operations carry on exactly as before. The only thing that changes is the working capital in your account.

Common questions
Business Refinance, explained
How much can I borrow against equipment I own?
Equipment refinance runs up to $500,000. The amount you can release depends on the type, age and value of the assets you own outright and on your business profile. The fastest way to a real figure is a free rate quote.
What is an equipment refinance, exactly?
It is a way to borrow against gear you already own outright, sometimes called equity release or a sale and lease back. You unlock the working capital tied up in the asset while keeping the asset itself. Nothing gets sold and nothing leaves your yard.
Do I have to stop using the equipment?
No. That is the whole idea. The equipment stays in your business and keeps earning the entire time. The refinance simply releases the cash that is sitting in it, with no disruption to your operations.
Do I need to own the asset outright to refinance it?
Generally yes. Equipment refinance is designed for assets you own free of any existing finance, since that is where the equity sits. If there is a small balance left on a current facility, talk to us anyway, as some deals can still work.
Do I need full financials to apply?
Often not. For established assets and clean profiles, low-doc and no-doc options mean many refinances are approved without full financials or tax returns. We will tell you upfront what your specific deal needs.
How fast can I get the cash?
Most approvals come back within 24 to 48 hours once we have your details, and clean deals can settle quickly after that. There are no upfront fees to get a quote, so it costs nothing to find out where you stand.
