Equipment Financing & Asset-Based Lending

Connor Smith is Indymae's go-to specialist for equipment financing and asset-based lending, with 14 years of experience helping businesses acquire the machinery, technology, and vehicles they need to scale. From construction fleets to medical devices to restaurant equipment, Connor has financed it all.

His background includes a prior role as a senior underwriter at a national equipment leasing firm, where he developed a sharp eye for collateral valuation, depreciation schedules, and deal structuring that protects both the lender and the borrower. He has personally closed over $150 million in equipment-backed transactions.

Connor prides himself on speed and precision — most of his clients receive term sheets within 24 to 48 hours. Outside of work, he's a passionate amateur mechanic who restores classic cars, giving him a genuine appreciation for the machinery his clients depend on every day.

"The right equipment isn't a cost — it's the engine that powers your bottom line."
