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 wish I knew leasing a car could be this easy years ago! I still can’t believe how seamless my experience was with Sean. He was extremely responsive and got me the best price compared to other dealers I had been talking to. The delivery of the car was on the exact day and time I asked for, even though it was a national holiday. I have already referred him to so many of my friends and family. So glad someone referred me to Sean. All the stress that comes with buying/leasing a car is now a thing of the past!

Thank you Vantage Auto for getting me a good deal on an Odyssey! Shout out to Charlie who made this process painless and smooth from beginning to end. Totally beats having to go to the dealership.

My car leasing experience with Vantage was fantastic. Sean took an overwhelming decision and process and made it so easy. He was available morning, noon, and night as well as weekends. He never pressured me and simply gave me facts and possibilities and recommendations. The experience was really amazing from the start and I’m extremely grateful for his help in making the car leasing process manageable. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking to buy or lease a car. Sarah
