Philadelphia's equipment-finance market
In Philadelphia, a city of roughly 1,600,000, a dense medical and university corridor layered over legacy manufacturing. The applications we fund from the metro lean on medical, manufacturing, food service, and the mining deals fit that pattern.
Pennsylvania's state sales-tax base rate is 6 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 Pennsylvania Department of State, and we handle that filing at funding. Pennsylvania conforms to federal Section 179, so the deduction works the same on your state return as your federal one. Full state-level detail lives on our Pennsylvania guide.
