When a Hillside Contractor Needs New Equipment Fast

A landscaping company operating out of a yard near the intersection of Liberty Avenue and Bloy Street had worn its fleet of mowers and aerators to the breaking point. Spring contracts were piling up, but the owner hesitated to drain the business checking account on replacements. He walked into our Elizabeth office at 200-226 Williamson St, fifteen minutes south on Route 22, and described the bottleneck. We listened, reviewed his revenue history, and within days connected him with a lender offering structured payments that matched his seasonal income. The equipment arrived before the April rush, and the company fulfilled every contract on schedule.
