A lease feels like renting equipment. You make monthly payments for the usage of the commercial mower and work with your dealer to determine how many hours you will use the machine for a set period of time, usually two or three years. At the end of the lease you return the equipment to the dealer and can choose to purchase the equipment for its remaining value or lease new commercial landscaping equipment.
Your dealer can help you estimate how many hours to lease your machine. But don’t stress, because John Deere Financial offers the Ultimate Forgiveness Program™ when you continue to lease. If you go over your hours, we’ll forgive half; if you’re under, we’ll give you a credit.¹
We’ve got you covered here too. With the Ultimate Forgiveness Program, we’ll forgive up to $250 of damages on your commercial mower.¹
Monthly lease payments are typically lower than loan payments, which allows landscapers more cash for other business expenses. John Deere Financial offers seasonal or skip payments: payments are higher during your busy season and lower in your slow season. Equipment leasing also allows you to regularly rotate commercial-grade lawn mowers, so you always have the benefit of new machines.
