Why Finance a Motor Grader Instead of Renting?

1. Stop Paying Rental Fees Forever

Rental costs add up fast:

  • Small grader (140H): RM 8,000-12,000/month
  • Medium grader (16H): RM 15,000-20,000/month
  • Large grader (24M): RM 25,000-35,000/month

Example: Medium motor grader rental

  • Monthly rental: RM 18,000
  • 2-year project: RM 432,000
  • Result: RM 432,000 spent, zero assets owned

Instead, finance with 0% deposit:

  • Grader price: RM 800,000
  • Finance 100%: RM 800,000 loan
  • Monthly payment (60 months, 7% p.a.): RM 15,840
  • After 5 years: Own RM 800,000 grader, save RM 300,000

2. Own the Asset from Day One

When you finance a motor grader:

  • Build company assets for balance sheet
  • Depreciation benefits for tax purposes
  • Use grader for multiple projects (not just one)
  • Sell or trade-in when upgrading equipment
  • No daily rental charges eating project profits

3. Win More Infrastructure Contracts

Many government and large-scale projects require:

  • Proof of owned equipment (not rental dependency)
  • Financial stability (assets on balance sheet)
  • Long-term capability (not limited by rental availability)
  • Equipment reliability guarantees

Owning your motor grader makes you more competitive for major road construction contracts.

4. Better Project Cash Flow Management

Spread the cost over 36-84 months:

  • Manage seasonal income fluctuations
  • Align payments with project progress claims
  • Preserve working capital for materials and labor
  • Pay from project profits, not cash reserves
