Newark's equipment-finance market
In Newark, a city of roughly 310,000, the port-airport logistics complex is the economic engine. The applications we fund from the metro lean on logistics, port operations, construction, and the veterinary deals fit that pattern.
New Jersey's state sales-tax base rate is 6.625 percent (local additions vary), and on most deals the tax rolls into the financed amount rather than coming out of pocket. The UCC-1 securing the equipment gets filed with the New Jersey Department of the Treasury, and we handle that filing at funding. New Jersey applies its own modifications to federal Section 179 treatment, so the state-side deduction can differ from the federal one, worth a conversation with your tax preparer. Full state-level detail lives on our New Jersey guide.
