AlpacaLease - a division of Alpacas at Tucker Creek

Today's economy is causing us to carefully watch how we spend our money but even more carefully how we can save money.  Let's face it, the cost of entry into the alpaca business or any business can be down right daunting.   AlpacaLease is designed to make entry into the alpaca business much more user-friendly.  But it is also designed to make herd diversification a lot less costly as well. 

AlpacaLease does not require any long term commitments--you select the time frame.

AlpacaLease has no monthly payments--just one payment at the start of the lease period based on 15% of the selling price of the animal--male or female.

Should you decide to purchase the alpaca you leased, every dollar you paid in lease payments will be applied to the purchase price.

So if you have been hesitating to enter into the alpaca business but were concerned about taking that step because of the cost of entry--consider leasing.  If you lease a bred female, at the end of the lease term you own the cria. If you are leasing a male you can breed as many females as you wish (including outside breedings) for one flat fee.  You treat the animal as if it were your own.  You are required to maintain mortality insurance based on the selling price of the animal.  The males must also have fertility insurance. 

If you are an experienced breeder and have considered herd diversification but have been procrastinating in this economy this could be the answer--whether you lease a male or female you could add the diversity you have been wanting for a very economical cost.

Any of the animals listed for sale on our site are eligible for the AlpacaLease Program.  So whether you are new to the industry or an experienced breeder with AlpacaLease you can bring flexibility and diversity to your breeding program.  If this interests you, please feel free to contact us at 877-915-0522 or peggy@alpacalease.com.

Local Newspaper Highlights Alpacas at Tucker Creek

Recently Bob Duke, the business reporter for the local newspaper, The Daily Astorian, selected us for an interview for his column entitled "Making the Dollar". Each week he features a local business asking them the same four questions. We were not sure how he was going to handle it since we are not exactly a traditional store front type of business--but he did a pretty good job. See what you think! Click here to read the article.  The cria is Ace owned by Susan Jones of Oregon Coast Alpacas.   What a handsome little man.
