Great video! Just a little bit of extra info… some dealerships state in their contract that you cannot sell to a third party when leasing. They used to let it slide when they had a ton of inventory but now that inventory for pre-owned vehicles has gone down, they make you turn in or sell/trade in to them only.

Update: So I just did my lease buyout yesterday (Cadillac, through GM Financial who stopped 3rd party buyouts) and actually benefitted tremendously with lease equity due to this market. Best finance rate ever and now have a car well under current market value. Dealer is contractually obligated to lease buyout price, which was just over $10k in plus equity on a lease, to where I paid far less than purchasing price in the first place. Residual utopia. I'm elated. (Some people aren't understanding this rare advantage.)

Another helpful video, Ari. My 39 month lease was ending in June. Due to low mileage I had significant positive equity. I also looked up the value online and against comps on dealer lots. It took numerous visits to different dealers, but I finally found one willing to give me the market value. It was a 2 month process, so give yourself time 😅. Also, at least here in Canada, the Nissan dealers wanted to charge me $1000 to process the lease turn-in if I was not going to get a new car with them. I found out I could arrange to end or buy-out the lease directly with Nissan Canada and there was no fee required!
@SpeakmanDavid4 жыл бұрын
Good explanation Ari. But what I feel like people don't understand is this is part of the beauty of leasing. Let's say you are right at your mileage limit. And you've been in an accident so the car has a 'bad' Carfax report. And, when you originally leased the car, the residual value that your lease was based on was higher than it should have been. In that case, the car is probably worth way less than market value AND the contracted buy out. The beautiful thing is, you can just turn it in a walk away. All done with it. BUT, what most people don't realize is that it works the other way too. If the residual value was right on and you had a 15k miles per year lease and you only put 12k per year on the car and your car is worth more than what the buyout is, that equity is yours!!! Most people just turn it in and walk away from that equity. That's the biggest mistake people make and don't seem to understand.

@@TheFrnchrn99 what I've read is, you could go to (for example)a carmax and see how much they'll give you for your car. If their offer is higher than the payoff or residual value, then sell the car to them, they'll pay off the car, the amount is owed (payoff amount) and the additional amount is your profit, carmax will cut you a check for the amount that went over the payoff amount. That's your profit, now you could use that money to help you get the car you want. I hope it makes sense.

We only know of equity on a home. So he had to explain it all over again. Basically I would be bringing the car back every 3.5 years and Basically tieing myself into a new vehicle without ever owning it. Because when you lease you don't own.

@@msve3730 yes it's a cycle for sure. I think leasing is good if you want the newest vehicle out every 3 yrs. Or if you don't want to maintenance it longterm and just rather get a new car instead. Or in my case I wasn't sure if I wanted to keep this car and wasn't sure what car I want to buy and keep longterm. So my plan is turning this one in (didn't like it) once my lease is up and hopefully by then I can make up my mind and just buy to own one that I do like. Or save up and just buy me a used car that I like. Also I just got my first registration statement it's so expensive $400 to register in California. I have never paid more than $323 max on a car registration. So I'm thinking maybe because it's a lease it's so expensive. So maybe take that into consideration and ask, because I sure didn't and now I regret it even more 😑 ugh oh well.

Hey Ari, your older videos are popping up on my feed and I'm very appreciative. When my 2022 Hyundai Kona lease is up this fall, I will probably turn it in at my dealer, and lease Hyundai #5 from them. They will love the loyalty and since my Kona just turned 8700 miles and looks brand new and the top trim (kept in my garage, I treat it with kit gloves), it will probably sell as a great used Hyundai very quickly (plus, I'll have a Carmax or KBB used car price to make sure dealer gives me proper equity). Meanwhile, I'm smarter now and know how to take control of the new deal and lease a new Kona for below MSRP.

Hey Ari, I have an unusual question for you. Do you have any advice for young single women when going to a dealership? I can't help but feel that as soon as the car salesmen see a female alone in a dealership they see an opportunity to take advantage of us, almost as if we are prey. As a result of this I have asked one of my male co-workers to go with me to the dealership when I go to the dealer at the end of this month to lease, so I have a "bodyguard" or to look more "legitimate". I feel as if even though I may be knowledgeable about the process and I've been doing a lot of research, I might not be taken seriously if I were to go to the dealer by myself. Is there any advice you can offer women specifically when going to buy or lease a car?

Your lease should have spec'd what the buyout number is for the car. My 2018 for instance the buyout for me would have been $11,500 if a dealership or say Vroom was to buyout the car they don't have to pay certain taxes so for Vroom their buyout was $11k even or so. The bank cannot artificially say your buyout is going to be $14k if the paperwork states $11,500. The dealership in my case refused to waive the return fee of $400. So I sold my leased Mazda to Vroom for $15k, they sent the bank a check for $11k to take ownership of the car then arranged a delivery pickup service to pick up my car then moment I signed the waybill from the pickup service Vroom sent me a check for the difference via FedEx, got it the next day. When the dealership called to find out when I'd bring the car back, I told them I had asked them to waive my return fee and that they would make an 8k profit off these lease they were greedy and said no, I did my research and I was able to sell my leased Mazda to a 3rd party dealership and that's what I did.. Because it comes down to this. you return your leased car if the market is hot for used cars the dealership will buy the car and flip it for a huge profit, if the used market is dead they'll take the car back with your $400 return fee, call the bank and tell them their car has returned. The bank will then sell the car back to the dealership at a loss or pick it up and sell it to an auction house at a loss. But the market now with the global chip shortage your used car is worth more then many new cars.. The dealership will attempt to strong arm you into beleiving you are doing something illegal, but you aren't you are just going to make the profit and not them, if they aren't willing to help you, you might as well aim to help yourself!

i have a year and a half left on my lease of my 2020 Cadillac CT4. I have an allowance of 45,000 miles over 3 years. With how much i drive i expect by the end of my lease to only use about 30,000 miles so i am going to assume im going to have equity in my vehicle. Can i would like the same model but just newer when time comes to return the car, any suggestions?

Car leases have a buyout option, so if your car is worth more than what the buyout price is, the 3rd party will buyout your lease to obtain your car and you get the positive difference.

Also if I want to keep the car can I buy it cash or do I finace the price or how does that work? Also if I decide not to buy it after lease what happens dealership keeps it?

@@84848AR Values on used cars are at an all time high so if you're planning on getting a new car, trading in your lease could provide you with a lot of equity (car is worth more than payoff) which is generally treated as money down on your new vehicle. However, because inventory on used vehicles is low and demand is high, several leasing companies are not allowing payoffs from third party vendors right now. For example: Nissan won't allow anyone but a Nissan dealer or the current owner to payoff the vehicle. So if you don't want another Nissan, you have to buyout your lease before you can re-sell it or sell it to a Nissan dealer. You can find a comprehensive list of leasing companies not allowing third party payoffs floating around on the internet right now.

Beautiful car that I love. Balloon pmt is $13,500. I have great credit. Only problem is I’m on SS and can only make a limited pmt which is under $200 pm. I don’t know what to do without getting screwed. Do I do another balloon pmt, or try to buy this one. The dealership quoted me to buy it I could finance for 72 months for $215 mo. Well don’t want to be making payments on a 10 year old car. I need warranty cuz I don’t have extra cash to fix anything. I’m totally lost and worried. Any help would be appreciated.

You cannot negotiate down from the residual again because that was in the orignal lease contract. They can charge you a dealership fee and you maybe get a percent increase when financing through the dealership (not sure if it's capped in your state etc). Get your own pre approved finance through a credit union or somewhere else.

The buyout for the car will be insnanely lower in most cases then what the dealerships will be seeling your car for, and if they refuse to waive the return fee, then i'd say deal with the hassle and inspection and sell the car on your own and make a decent profit and tell the dealership to go pound sand.
