Re: Need out of your Car Lease?
How is it possible to transfer a lease from one person to
another without first buying the vehicle from the owner of the vehicle, holding the lease, in state where they have actual title to the vehicle?

Melvin, It's called a lease assumption. Many lease companies are now allowing this type of transaction. The way it works is that a new lessee (a buyer) goes through a credit approval process with the vehicle lease company. Once credit approved, the new lessee receives an identical lease contract to the original lessee but with only the contract terms that remain. Once the paperwork is signed, the lease obligation passes from the original lessee to the new lessee and the vehicle is handed over to the new lessee (buyer). The old lessee's (seller) contract is terminated and they exit the lease early. There are many benefits to this: 1. It allows current lessees flexibility when leasing 2. It offers liquidity and a secondary marketplace for lease vehicles. 3. Very often, the lease seller offers a cash incentive for a new lessee to assume the vehicle. This helps to subsidize the lease payments for the lease buyer. 4. The down payment from the original lessee usually passes to the lease buyer upon lease assumption. 5. And the biggest benefit is that it allows lease sellers the capability to exit their lease early without hefty termination charges, penalties, or other fees (which often net into the thousands of dollars). There is much more to this so please feel free to browse our "Learning Center" at www.leasetrade.com.

Re: There is no cheap way out of a Lease
That may help the seller but certainly not the buyer. Why would
any buyer pay as much or even more to acquire a used closed end leased vehicle from the owner for more than the current value of the vehicle on a short term lease, as is in the case with most early lease termination's, when they could simply lease a new vehicle or buy a similar used vehicle for less and at a lower total interest cost? There is no "down payment" on a lease to be transferred. Any pre paid amount does not reduce the total cost of the lease, it merely reduces the monthly lease payment. mike hunt Matt wrote: > > LeaseTrade.com > > Melvin, > > It's called a lease assumption.

Re: There is no cheap way out of a Lease
Agreed.
Used to be that the residual amount at lease end could be substantially less than the actual value of the car at the time. Lessor could purchase the car at lease end at a good price, or use the difference between residual and value as down payment, or cap cost reduction on a new car. Lately, with regard to BMW anyway, residual at lease end is, from personal experience, more than the actual value of the car, so unless it's possible to negotiate a lower residual, only logical step is to walk away from the car. I've let the last two five series go back to BMW, because, even though they were ultra clean, low mile cars, I didn't find that purchase at the residual amount, or even a lower negotiated amount on the last car, a particularly good deal. Purchase amount would have been at or only slightly below the RETAIL value of the car. Only advantage I can see to an assumption is in favor of the original lessor. He gets to bail out of a lease early. I'd certainly never pay a dime to assume a lease, unless I were in the market to PURCHASE a car, and the combination of remaining payments and residual were a LOT less than the going rate on a similar free and clear used car. An unlikely scenerio at best. DS <MikeHunt2@mailcity.com> wrote in message news:3FAFE788.7147F5DE@mailcity.com... > That may help the seller but certainly not the buyer.

NOTE: Leases from Audi do not allow liability of lease-end expenses to be transferred to the new leasor. If they bang up the car they can walk away at the end of the lease leaving you holding the bill as far as Audi is concerned. If your lease is not through Audi then this may not apply to you. Scott |

Someone is looking to get out of a lease and is willing to offer a deal to make it happen. I have seen offers of X months pre-paid, $$$ cash up front to assume the lease, any number of other such options. The person assuming the lease gets a nice car for a short lease term with no money down and some free months or some cash at a monthly rate lower or equal to what they would pay if they had to go start a new lease from scratch.

Not True! Re: There is no cheap way out of a Lease
Actually, the details of buying and selling leases really vary from car to
car. Everybody here is correct to a certain extent. Sometimes it is in the sellers best interest, sometimes the buyer. If the negotiation is acceptable to both parties, then it's a win-win. For sellers, the ability to exit their lease car is a nice benefit. Life does throw some curve balls so perhaps somebody is financially challenged and would like to get out from under their expensive car lease (rather than default). Other times, the seller is just looking to move to a different car (addition to the family or wanting a different type for commute car, etc.). Here's a typical seller example: A lessee has a two seater car and signs a 48 month lease. One year into the lease, he finds the love of their life, gets married and has kids. Well, the 2 seater just doesn't fit the lifestyle anymore so they decide to sell the lease car. With a fair residual, an acceptable seller incentive payment, and a car in excellent condition, it would be a good deal for a buyer to assume. For buyers, usually the assumption of the original down payment and often a seller incentive payment (cash) make it a very worthwhile transaction. If the lease residual is right (either equal to market value or below market value), the buyer will come out ahead as there is some built-in equity in the vehicle. If the lease residual is higher than the current value, the buyer can essentially just use the car and return it to the bank at the end without problem. Here's a typical buyer example: A buyer wants to get into a late model BMW M3 and wants to own it but can't quite purchase it outright quite yet. So, s/he finds an M3 in good condition with 14 months to go, a residual that is showing $1,000 in equity and a small cash incentive payment that covers a single lease payment. The incentive payment covers the majority of interest on the remaining monthly payments (as lease interest is often front-end ammortized) and thus has become an inexpensive 0% financing while paying down principle over the next 14 months. Perhaps the seller incentive payment gives the deal a negative interest rate (and yes I've seen this). At the end of the 14 months, the buyer can afford the low residual and decides to buy the car outright. So for both seller and buyer, their are advantages and disadvantages. Any number of factors can make it a win-win. Market conditions are a little weird right now but I think the recently adjusted residuals will open up all sorts of opportunities for buyers and seller.
