If you're looking to finance commercial vehicles in the name of your business without affecting your personal credit, Ally features two solutions.
When you want to buy or lease vehicles in the name of your business but need to secure additional financing, you may act as a third-party guarantor. This allows you to keep your name off the title and may keep the debt off your personal credit record. Keep in mind, if your business defaults, you may become liable and the debt may be reported on your personal credit record.
If your business qualifies for financing without the owner's guaranty, you can obtain financing in the business name only. This gives you the ability to save your personal credit for other use as well as:
Build credit in your business name Protect yourself from liability related to the operation of the vehicleFind a local dealer to learn more about how Ally financing works for your business.
A municipal lease-purchase plan is designed for municipalities that intend to own their vehicles. Although the vehicle is titled in the municipality's name, Ally holds the lien. Because your municipality owns the vehicle at lease-end, there are no mileage limits or excess wear charges.
Qualified, tax-exempt municipalities for federal tax purposes (including states or political subdivisions of state governments) are eligible.
Municipalities should consult with their legal departments regarding tax-exempt status. Tax-exempt status alone does not automatically qualify an entity as eligible.
To find out if you qualify, see Section 103 of the IRS code.
