An auction can present a small window of opportunity to obtain the necessary equipment for business operations. Maximize the benefits by preparing in advance.
Auctions can be unpredictable. Since competing bidders can drive up the price of the equipment you need, it’s important to have a strategic plan in place. Before you seek auction financing, determine how much capital you are willing to spend to secure your business’s equipment. Be sure to account for shipping and tax fees that accompany auction purchases.
Present this desired amount, and a business plan displaying how the purchases will benefit the business to a trusted equipment financing firm.
Many equipment auctions display a mix of used and brand new equipment. Make a list of the equipment you desire. Then, determine which items on the list you would like to purchase new and which you would like to purchase used. Of course, opting for used equipment will be more cost-effective. However, there are certain cases in which new equipment is a better option for a business.
Though equipment auctions can provide major purchasing opportunities, there is a risk for buyers. Make sure to closely examine any item that you will be bidding on at the auction. The auction house should provide you with the most up-to-date information about the equipment but be sure to take a look for yourself. Read reviews about the auction house and ask around to learn about what past buyers have to say.

Heading into an auction with insufficient funds could be a waste of time for your business. However, bad credit can make it difficult to secure auction financing. Here are a couple of things to consider if bad credit is holding you back.
One option that businesses with bad credit have is to pivot to alternative financing sources. Rather than seeking auction financing from one traditional lender, try a multi-pronged approach.
You can accumulate a range of capital-generating sources to raise funds. Crowdfunding platforms are great options for innovative startups and small businesses. Online lending services that take into account more metrics than simply your credit score are another option.
The simple yet wise financial advice that businesses should heed is, “Only take out a loan if you can pay it back.” The fact is, taking out a loan with bad credit will result in higher interest rates. So it’s important to proceed with caution and determine whether the business can go without the equipment for the time being. Examine alternatives before deciding to move forward.
We want to do everything we can to help you find the best advice and solutions for your equipment auction financing needs. Our number one priority is our relationship with our clients.
