Lease vs Finance equipment...Thoughts?

[Mowerr]

You would need to speak to an attorney, but my understanding is you create a holding company that purchases the equipment and leases/rents equipment to Tree Service. And this protects the equipment from being an asset of the tree company as it doesn't own it. There is more to doing this but I am unsure of all the legal stuff, so speak to an attorney.
I know there are some larger companies I sell equipment to that buy it in this way

So its kind of like when French montana said "...bought a house to cook bricks straight cash... Next to a brick house full of straight cash."
