Many businesses lease their office space, vehicles, and other equipment.
It may also make sense for you to rent a Domain Name. There can be tax advantages, as well as the obvious cash flow advantage. This could be done on a short-term basis, normally to allow a startup with limited funds to start generating revenues before having to purchase an expensive Domain Name. By renting a Domain Name you save your capital for other needs. Someone using this strategy intends to purchase the Domain Name, but does not want to spend the money necessary to get a good Domain Name, when starting their business.
