Do I pay sales tax when I lease?

This was the easiest lease that I have done so far. Best part is no back and forth, hours at the dealer and car was delivered to me :)Thank you Sean for all your help!

Sean and Brandon were fantastic! I cannot stress how much easier the car buying process was with Sean’s guidance and network. Brandon was a consummate professional when it came to the delivery of our new car! It was clean and cared for after the long drive down. I cannot stress how much better it was working with them as opposed to going to a dealer. We will be buying all our future cars through Sean at Vantage!

Had an Amazing experience with Vantage Auto Group & David Alessio! This was the first time using them. I didn’t have a clear Idea of a car we wanted but needed to stay inside a budget. I was referred by a friend to not waste my time with going to multiple dealership to play the negotiating games. David gave us some recommendations, did some pricing and then came back with an amazing find and deal right under budget. 24 hours later they delivered the car, I signed the paperwork & everything was seamless. They returned my old lease and plates to DMV. Door to door service with no hassle or dealership games. Will def use again in the future! Thank you again!

“Easy and pain free.” Say that about anything and it’s positively notable. Say that about car shopping and it’s pleasantly surprising. Thanks to David, Sebastian and team for their soup to nuts support.
