Illustration only, invented figures: a zero-turn mower quoted at $14,800 is financed at a 10.5% annual rate over 48 months. The payment in this invented example is about $379 a month, and the payments total about $18,189 (our arithmetic). A used mower needs hours, serial number and photos.
Maintenance Contracts as Evidence of Income
Signed maintenance contracts with commercial properties, homeowner associations or property managers show a partner recurring income. List them with their monthly amounts and end dates. Contracts paid on invoice also show when cash arrives, which matters for a credit line.
Payroll and Fuel While Invoices Are Out
Landscaping employers in the county paid $47.4 million in wages in 2023 (County Business Patterns). Crews and fuel are paid weekly; commercial clients pay on invoice. A credit line or working capital covers that gap. Landscaping sits within the trades on the construction page; county figures are on the Conway, SC page and every trade on the industries page.
Trucks and Trailers Titled to the Landscaping Business
A dump truck or an enclosed trailer is financed as a titled vehicle, and the partner is listed as lienholder on the title until the last payment. Put the vehicle in the business's name, insure it as a commercial vehicle, and keep the registration with the funding records. A truck bought from a private seller needs a clean title and a payoff letter if the seller still owed money on it.
Taking Over Another Crew's Mowing Contracts
Buying an existing route means buying contracts, equipment and sometimes a truck. A partner reads the contract list, the equipment ages and the seller's deposits; contracts that can be canceled at will are worth less than signed annual agreements.
