The
Telmark has been leasingequipment for over 30 years. Did you know
that we’ve been leasing new buildings for that long too? Consider:
• Tax deductibility and accelerated write-offs: Lease payments are
income tax deductible over the term of the lease compared to 20-year
depreciation of farm buildings and 39-year depreciation of commercial
buildings Could reduce tax liability this year.
• Low upfront costs: Beginning costs as little as one monthly lease payment
• Flexible lease term: Building lease terms start aggressively at five years
but may be as long as ten, twelve, or fifteen years
• Customized payment schedules' Lease payment schedules match
your cash flow. Payment options include monthly, quarterly, annually,
as well as, skip or specially designed seasonal payments
First: Talk with a qualified builder to determine your needs and building cost
Then: Call your Telmark representative for your financing
