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 recently leased a car through Vantage Auto Group in Watchung, NJ, and worked directly with Sean Ulsaker. The experience was nothing short of remarkable. No pressure, no obligation, no haggling—just honest, efficient, and top-tier service.My car broke down on a Monday. I contacted Sean, and by Thursday, I had a new vehicle delivered to my place of business. He guided me through car recommendations, arranged test drives the very next day, handled all the paperwork, and made the entire process seamless. I didn’t even have to leave my office.From now on, I’ll be working exclusively with Vantage Auto and recommending them to anyone looking for a stress-free car leasing experience. Sean and the team truly go above and beyond. thank you Sean for the excellent service. First time leasing a car and not having to take headache pills.Again, thanks! Manny Barrueco

I just got my 3rd car through Vantage Auto. The process has always been seamless. I've mostly worked with Sarah and she's always very responsive. She finds out what we want and our approximate budget and is quick to tell me what my options are - including some out of the box ideas. She's able to find good deals on cars we may not have previously considers. Sarah coordinates everything including test drives, picking up your old car, and delivering the new car. I've been very happy with the service I've received from Vantage and highly recommend them for your car shopping needs.
