Financing & Pricing Questions
What are the financing rates and terms for buying a SANY machine?
- With a solid credit history and years of business experience, you can expect to receive competitive financing rates commonly referred to as the "street rate." Currently, the rates hover around 7-8% on average. However, please note that rates can vary based on individual circumstances.
- Financing a SANY depends on several factors:
- Business, Farm, Startup, Personal: Whether you plan to finance personally or through a business will change your financing rates and terms. At Newman Tractor, we can help in financing businesses, farms, and start-up companies with a registered LLC. If you plan to finance personally, though, we suggest going through your bank as you’ll likely get the best personal loan rates through your local bank.
- Number of years in business: The number of years in business usually also comes into play when financing your equipment. Typically, the longer you’ve been in business, the better rates you’re going to be able to get. Businesses that are 2-3 years or older are no longer considered to hold a start-up status.
- Downpayment amount: A larger downpayment can positively impact the terms of your financing by reducing the loan amount and potentially securing more favorable rates. Our finance manager can work with you to find a suitable downpayment arrangement that aligns with your financial situation.
How long does it take to process credit applications with Newman Tractor?
- The time required to process credit applications varies depending on the complexity and creditworthiness of the loan. While credit applications with strong credit can be turned around in as little as three hours, more challenging loans may take up to three days to review thoroughly. Rest assured, we are committed to expediting the process while ensuring a thorough assessment of your credit application.
