What is Municipal Lease Financing?
Lease Financing enables municipalities to enhance their cash flow by spreading the cost of their purchase over several fiscal periods. This allows both current and future taxpayers to pay the cost, thus stretching tax dollars.
Lease Financing also provides a hedge against inflation. Product purchased at today’s prices can be budgeted in less-valuable future dollars over the term of the lease.
Offering a specialized, tax-advantaged type of financing that allows government entities to acquire almost any kind of, essential-use equipment; including building a new shelter facility, retrofit another structure into an animal shelter facility or remodel/renovate your existing facility with brand new indoor/outdoor kennels and insulated dog doors.
These are lease-to-own programs with no residual and no end-of-lease buyout. Title passes at delivery, not at lease end. Doing more with less is all about using municipal lease financing to maximizing the buying power of the budget dollars you have now, for what you need today and tomorrow. And without bonds!
Tax advantaged municipal leasing rates are almost always lower than any comparable commercial borrowing. Here’s why: Tax exempt municipal leasing is more aggressively priced because the interest income to the funding source is exempt from Federal income tax. Our cost of funds starts lower and the government entities cost of funds is lower too!
Municipal leasing is faster, less expensive and easier. Unlike complex bond financing or conventional financing, municipal lease financing is a very streamlined process that provides access to the most aggressive rates available. From as small as $5,000 to $20 million and more!

"Houndquarters was very receptive to our specific requirements for an animal control facility in Bay County, and succeeded in implementing these needs into a workable design which is serving us well. The facility recieves complements daily, both from its open and functional design to its ease of cleaning. Perhaps most impressive is the noticeable lack of odor normally associated with kennels. We are very pleased with the environment Houndquarters kennels provides to our animals and visitors to the facility."
