FEBRUARY 11, 2018

What the state continues to do is lease buildings and space within existing buildings, however despite a vibrant leasing program little of that space is actually green.

As more building owners, managers, and tenants incorporate environmental stewardship and sustainability into their real estate operations, the concept of green leasing has moved into the mainstream. A green lease is a lease for a commercial or public building that incorporates an agreement between a landlord and a tenant as to how a building is to be occupied, operated, and managed in a sustainable way.

Many major contractors (including the one I work for) rent or lease equipment quite often to fill a particular immediate, but temporary need.

The allocation of cash assets for the purchase or lease of equipment is best guided by professional tax advisors familiar with the company’s business plan. Before you purchase any major unit of equipment, you will probably want to determine whether it is more cost efficient than continuing to get by with old equipment. To perform this analysis you need to collect and compare information on the old machine versus a new one.
