A Federal Lease is an alternative to an outright purchase. It allows Federal Agencies to obtain necessary equipment and other assets while still operating within their budget.

The type of property that can be financed with a Federal Lease includes computers, software, office equipment, communications equipment, security systems, furniture, and vehicles. We also arrange financing for other types of property.

The term of a Federal Lease is typically one to three years with longer terms available, depending upon the type of equipment and the needs of the Federal Agency. During the term of the lease, the Government Agency makes scheduled payments. Government Leasing, LLC provides flexible payment terms that meet the financial needs of the Federal Agency.

The most significant challenge faced by Governmental Agencies when acquiring needed property is their fiscal year budgetary requirements. Often, insufficient funds are budgeted for the outright purchase of essential property. Government Leasing, LLC overcomes this budgetary constraint by financing the property. We hold GSA contracts for lease financing, so we can team with the GSA vendor of choice to provide leasing services. We can also finance property obtained with open market pricing, terms and conditions.

When the cost of equipment is viewed as a series of monthly payments, the budgetary process is more efficient in managing an acquisition. Leasing presents the opportunity to spread the acquisition over multiple budgetary periods, which is more likely to correspond with the useful life of the equipment. Our low rates permit the agency to increase their purchasing power. For example, without leasing, budgetary limitations may force an Agency to settle for equipment that is less than adequate for its long-term needs.

Most agencies of the executive (such as the Departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Defense, Education, Energy, Health and Human Services, Interior, Justice, Labor, State, Department of Transportation, Treasury and Veterans Affairs), legislative (such as the Senate, House of Representatives, Library of Congress, General Accounting Office, Government Printing Office), judicial (such as the Supreme Court and other Federal Courts) branches of the Federal Government use leasing to acquire property and other assets, as well as several semi-independent agencies (such as EPA, FEMA, GSA, NASA, SEC, SBA, SSA, TVA, and USPS). In addition, some contractors and subcontractors to the Federal Government use Federal leasing to acquire property needed to fulfill their contracts.

Lease To Ownership (LTOP): With an LTOP, the Federal Agency makes regular payments for the term of the lease. At the end of the lease term, the agency owns the property.

Lease With Option to Purchase (LWOP): Under an LWOP, the agency makes regular payments for the term of the lease and has the option to purchase the property at the end of the lease term for a specified amount. If the agency chooses not to exercise its option to purchase, the property can be returned to the leasing company or the lease can continue for an additional term(s).

Straight Lease or Rental: With a straight lease or rental, the agency makes regular payments for the term of the lease. At the end of the lease term the agency either renews the lease for an additional term or returns the property to the leasing company.
