Lease vs. Buy: What’s Best for You?
Perhaps the most attractive advantage of leasing lies in the ability to end the agreement. When an organization buys an asset, it owns it. That may be a little over simplistic, but it is true. You own the asset and you are stuck with it, regardless of its performance. Ever hear of someone buying a lemon press and getting the vendor to take it back? There are examples, to be sure, but they are rare.
