Finance Lease
With a Finance Lease, the lender purchases the equipment and the borrower gets the use the equipment for the term of the lease in return for lease payments.
Novated Lease for Vehicles
A Novated Lease is a three-way agreement between an employee, their employer, and a finance company. The word “Novation” refers to the substitution of a new contract in place of an old one. In other words, the employer agrees to take on the employee’s lease obligations. The employer makes the monthly lease payments out of the employee’s pre-tax income.
