    i applied through Bowman trailer lease and was turned down because my business is not old enough and I didn't show enough money in my business account.

    Credit score is 730/750. Lived overseas for over a decade and got back 2.5 years ago.

    Keep all $ over $1000 in my wife's name - savings account for liability reasons.

    7 month old EIN. No late payments or bad marks on credit.

    W T F?

    Any suggestions on trailer financing companies that won't rape me?

    Use one of your 18-month, ZERO percent credit cards. Will cost you 2-3% upfront, of the amount taken. Weigh that against your earnings potential with versus without the trailer.

    All the best to you.

    Ritchie Brothers Financial. You can buy trailer from auction or somewhere else.
