Financing questions to resolve before signing.
What should I compare before financing med spa equipment?
Compare the down payment, payment schedule, total amount paid, early-payoff terms, service obligations, and the conservative treatment volume needed to cover the payment and direct costs.
Does a lower equipment payment mean better ROI?
Not necessarily. A longer term may lower the monthly payment while increasing total financing cost. Review monthly cash flow and total payback economics together.
