HomeCoast in Action
What Our Clients Are Saying About HomeCoast
"Recently, the conveyor belt in our older
manufacturing plant broke and left us with downtime we could not
afford. The engine was shot and so we were told we needed to replace
the entire unit. Our credit line was maxed and I did not have the cash
on hand. I had recently received something in the mail from HomeCoast
Capital about their equipment leasing. I called and told the Account
Executive about my situation and they came to my office that afternoon.
Within a day, I was approved for a lease and had the new conveyor belt
installed within the week. HomeCoast saved me thousands of production
dollars and I can't thank them enough!"
-Miguel, Plant Manager for a Metal Assembler and Manufacturer
"I
was getting so tired of constantly filling out applications every time
we needed a car for our fleet. In the car rental business, cars are
constantly breaking down or being sold. As a need would come up, I
would have to wait for my old leasing company to approve the lease and
then deliver the car. They never financed the delivery charge and it
took them weeks to complete. When HomeCoast Capital approached me about
setting up a master lease, I was so thrilled. Not only do I not have to
go be bothered with re-applying over and over, but they also financed
the delivery charge for us, as well. Now, I have a car on my lot in
days when I need one. Thanks HomeCoast!"
-Cindy, Operations Manager for a Rental Car Company
"My
business needed some high-dollar equipment upgrades to increase
efficiency, but we were in discussions with an investor to do some
expansion. I did not want to have to show the equipment on my balance
sheet, so I was resolved to wait for the upgrades. However, when my
HomeCoast rep sat down with me and explained how an operating lease
works, I realized that I could get the equipment I needed now without
affecting my talks with the investor. Actually, the increased
efficiency from the equipment impressed the investor group and
definitely helped in our negotiations. I'm very pleased with the
consultative approach HomeCoast had with us."
-Andre, President of a Digital Production Studio
Spotlight On Success
Problem: The client
needed cash flow for payroll and had been turned down by their bank.
They were not a receivables-based company, so there was no opportunity
for factoring. The management had even resorted to asking for personal
loans, to no avail.
Solution: HomeCoast did a
sale leaseback on a large piece of machinery, allowing the client to
get access to cash while continuing to use the equipment at an
affordable monthly payment.
Result: The
client was able to pay that month’s payroll and now have a few months
of reserves set aside so that they do not have to constantly worry
about staff cuts.
Problem: A printing company had the opportunity to
take on $3.4 million project that was larger in scope than anything
they had ever done before. They quickly realized that they did not have
enough capacity to meet this contract and still keep our current
clients happy.
Solution: HomeCoast was able
to approve the client for two new pieces of printing equipment and had
them installed within a week. HomeCoast also was able to set up an
asset-based line of credit against the new purchase order, giving the
client additional working capital to staff up for the new project.
Result:
Not only did the client complete that project on time, they won two
more projects from the same client totaling over $9 million. They
leased another piece of equipment and are already running at full
capacity, looking to expand into a new office space.
Problem: A small computer software company had a
power surge that fried their server. It was a small ticket item and
although they had the cash to buy a new server, they did not want to
have to deplete their working capital. They applied to several leasing
companies, all of which were not interested in helping them because the
server did not cost enough to justify their time.
Solution: HomeCoast took the time to handle the lease transaction, even though it was a small ticket item.
Result:
Even though the initial transaction was small, the client was thankful
that HomeCoast did not treat them any differently than a large ticket
transaction. The client ended up doing over $150,000 in additional
leasing business with HomeCoast in the coming months for additional
upgrades.
