FAQ

Common questions

Straight answers to what Madison owners ask most, from a local broker.

Start by outlining your equipment list, current customer base, and seasonal revenue patterns. We'll match you with lenders who understand Wisconsin's short growing season and competitive landscape market, then explain which financing structures let you defer or skip winter payments.

Landscaping equipment loans in Madison typically range from fifteen thousand to two hundred thousand dollars, depending on whether you're financing mowers and hand tools or adding trucks, trailers, and excavation gear. Larger amounts usually require maintenance contracts and proof of recurring commercial accounts.

Approval often happens within three to five business days, and funding can arrive within a week for standard mowers, trucks, and trailers. Off-season financing may move faster as lenders have more capacity, while spring rush applications can take slightly longer.

Credit requirements are flexible, especially if you have maintenance contracts or commercial accounts in place. Many landscaping deals close with credit scores in the low six hundreds, and some lenders offer seasonal payment plans that account for Wisconsin's winter slowdown.

The equipment itself typically serves as collateral, whether it's mowers, trucks, or excavators. Lenders may also place a blanket lien on your equipment fleet or require a personal guarantee, particularly for newer businesses without significant asset equity.

Lenders generally request recent bank statements showing seasonal revenue, a customer list or maintenance contract summary, a simple profit and loss statement, and equipment quotes with make and model. Newer businesses should also provide a schedule of existing equipment and any commercial insurance policies.
