A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
Should I tell the dealer I want to lease before negotiating?
Ideally, negotiate the selling price first without mentioning whether you plan to lease or finance. Once you have agreed on a price, then discuss the lease terms. This prevents the dealer from adjusting the money factor or other lease variables to recapture profit you negotiated off the selling price.

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

Wow! I just had my car delivered after maintenance and I couldn’t be happier. Not only did they give me a super reasonable price, the staff were phenomenal and extremely easy to work with. What a fantastic high-quality service! They even detailed my car! I can’t recommend Vantage highly enough! I will never work with anyone else. 10/10 service!

Had a wonderful experience working with Vantage and Dave A. in particular. Dave came as a referral from a neighbor and he was very straightforward and helpful throughout the entire process. Once I decided to move forward with a lease, Dave was super efficient and we got everything done within a few days!
