A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
What is a marked-up money factor and how does it cost me money?
Dealers are allowed to mark up the money factor from the manufacturer's base rate, and they keep the additional interest as profit. On a $40,000 vehicle leased for 36 months, a money factor markup of just 0.0005 can cost you $200 to $500 over the lease term without you realizing it.

I can’t thank Sean enough for making my transition seamless and completely stress-free. What can often feel like an overwhelming process was made easy and comfortable from start to finish. He took the time to truly understand my wants, needs, and budget without any judgment, and kept me informed every step of the way. His humor and authenticity were an added bonus and made the experience even more enjoyable. Going from one lease to another in under a week felt effortless and refreshing, even without stepping into a dealership. See you in three years, Sean!

Such a wonderful experience with Sean and his team at Vantage Auto Group. Imagine not having to sit at a dealership for several hours. That alone is worth the 5 star review. Add to that how knowledgeable Sean is, how he actually wants to get you the best deal, and how little stress you'll experience throughout the entire process, and 5 stars just aren't enough. I would recommend Vantage Auto Group to anyone!
