A simple Answer TO yOUr Question

Does the lease inclusion amount reduce my deduction?

Yes. For leased vehicles above a certain value (the threshold changes annually), the IRS requires you to reduce your deduction by a "lease inclusion amount." This prevents taxpayers from using leasing to avoid the depreciation caps that apply to purchased vehicles. The inclusion amount is relatively small but increases with the vehicle's fair market value.

Working with Vantage was an awesome experience. They walked me through every step and made me feel like their top priority! They even returned my EZpass device that I had mistakenly left in my trade-in. I didn’t even know this industry existed prior to working with them, but I will never walk into a dealership to buy a car again, thanks to the amazing service Vantage provided. Highly recommend!

Had my first experience using a broker through Vantage Auto, so I was a little nervous going into the process. Deborah made everything incredibly easy and stress-free. She was transparent, thorough, and always available to answer questions. Instead of wasting hours at dealerships, she found the exact car and color we wanted and negotiated a monthly payment within our budget. She was communicative throughout the entire process and truly wonderful to work with. I highly recommend Deborah, especially for women looking for someone trustworthy and knowledgeable. Thank you Deborah!

Our experience with Vantage was extraordinary. Unexpectedly we found ourselves in a panic when our car just stopped and it was clear to us that we needed a new car! Our son recommended Mark Viegas and from start to finish, each step was seamless. Every person we encountered was professional , knowledgeable and excellent at their job. We were able to sell our original car and purchase a new car without any stress. We highly recommend Vantage Auto Group, Many Thanks for making this experience such a positive one Brad was also a pleasure to work with making sure the delivery was seamless
