Commercial Equipment Leasing With No Prepayment Penalties
Leasing through State Savings Bank comes with real advantages. Since we live and work here, we understand the needs of local businesses, farms, schools, and communities.
Unlike some traditional leasing companies, State Savings Bank does not charge lease termination fees or prepayment penalties if you need flexibility during the term of your lease.
Coordinating your banking and equipment financing with one local bank can also save time. You can work with a lender you already know and trust, instead of managing another outside finance company.
What Is Commercial Leasing?
Commercial leasing allows a business to use equipment, vehicles, or technology through lease financing instead of buying the asset outright.
Commercial leasing may be used for new or used equipment. It can also be structured around your business goals, cash flow, tax planning, and seasonal income needs.

- 100% financing available

Lease vs Finance: Which Is Right for Your Business?
| Feature | Equipment Leasing | Equipment Financing (Loan) |
|---|---|---|
| Ownership | You use the equipment during the lease term and return it or purchase it if your lease allows. | You own the equipment once the loan is paid in full. |
| Upfront Costs | Often requires little or no down payment, helping preserve working capital. | May require a down payment and higher upfront costs. |
| Monthly Payments | Typically, lower monthly payments than financing the full purchase price. | Monthly payments are often higher because you're paying toward ownership. |
| Cash Flow | Helps keep cash available for payroll, inventory, operating expenses, and future growth. | Uses more working capital upfront but builds equity in the equipment over time. |
| Equipment Upgrades | Makes it easier to replace or upgrade equipment as technology or business needs change. | Upgrading usually requires selling, trading, or refinancing existing equipment. |
| Best For | Businesses that want flexibility, lower upfront costs, or equipment that may become outdated. | Businesses purchase equipment they expect to use for many years. |
| Tax Considerations | Some lease structures may provide tax advantages. Consult your tax advisor. | Owners may qualify for depreciation and other tax benefits, including Section 179. Consult your tax advisor. |
