What is a leasing broker and how do they help companies?

You’ve probably asked yourself what a leasing broker is and what they do. We will answer this question in this article. We will also explain how a leasing broker can help companies not only to finance their assets, but also to increase their turnover.

What is a leasing broker?

A leasing broker is, so to speak, the intermediary between the lessee and the lessor. To put it more simply, he helps you as a company to find a suitable leasing company. It makes no difference whether you want to finance an asset for your company through leasing or whether you want to offer your customers leasing as financing.

What does a leasing broker do?

The leasing broker will find the right leasing company for you as a company. Since not all leasing companies finance everything, it is not always easy to find a suitable lessor. However, thanks to the experience and contacts of a leasing broker, he will find the right partner for you, both for sales financing and for leasing larger objects. He will also negotiate the terms of the leasing contract for you.

How does a leasing broker help companies?

He will help your company to find the right leasing solution. Regardless of whether you want to finance an unusual object or offer your customers uncomplicated financing.

You would like to lease a property yourself:

Instead of buying an asset, you can simply lease it. This has several advantages for your company: the leased asset does not appear on your balance sheet because leasing is balance sheet-neutral. You pay for the asset in monthly installments, which means you retain your liquidity and can plan well. Your credit lines with banks and credit institutions remain unaffected. Thanks to a leasing broker, you will find the best solution and the most suitable leasing partner for financing the asset.

You would like to offer your customers leasing:

If, on the other hand, you would like to offer your customers leasing, a leasing broker will also help you to find the best solution and the most suitable leasing partner(s). In this way, they automatically help you to generate more sales, close sales faster, win new customers and generally increase your turnover.

Do I absolutely need a leasing broker?

You may now be asking yourself whether you absolutely need a leasing broker. The answer is no. You don’t necessarily need one. Just as in the real estate or insurance sector, you can of course try to find a suitable offer for your company yourself. However, if you have no experience in the leasing sector and no contacts with leasing companies, finding a suitable leasing partner will be difficult, time-consuming and perhaps a little frustrating.

With a good leasing broker at your side, you can be sure of finding the best solution tailored to your company, your business idea and your customers. With many years of experience in the leasing sector, good contacts in the leasing industry and negotiating skills, the leasing broker will get the best deal for you.
