Moose,
If you're going to invest in your business, I think you should consider employees or maybe sub-contractors. Yes, machinery is awesome and definitely makes the job faster and easier, but there are things that you may be able to use your employee for that you cannot use a machine for. You can rent a machine if necessary, not an employee.
Also, most of our homeowners are never home. We don't put down "Backhoe rental" on the invoice, we just put down "backhoe".
If you're going into your second year, esp. with the economy the way it is, I think you should wait and rent this year. See how often you use it and if it's worth it. That's a lot of cash out for a ss if you don't use it as much as you think you will.
