There are a number of differences with these credit facilities which make each more or less suited to specific business set-ups. Importantly is whether a business uses the cash or accruals method of accounting. Lease and Rent-to-Own best suit the accruals method, Chattel Mortgage the cash method, and CHP may suit businesses using either method.
Another difference which can be particularly relevant in the fitness industry that may need to upgrade equipment regularly, is the ownership of the equipment over the finance term. With Leasing and Rent-to-Own, the ownership remains with the lender. This can be seen as a more flexible option for more efficient upgrading at the end of the term. This may also suit smaller operators as the asset does not get posted to the balance sheet.
There are also differences in what elements of the loan are tax deductible and with the interest rates. Speaking with an accountant may clarify the most suitable credit facility for your business set-up and the objectives you hope to achieve in the future.
