No Security Deposit
Unlike most leases, there’s no security deposit required with the Lease Alternative Loan. It’s one less thing to stress about!
You Own It
Enjoy more control over your vehicle since it’s titled in your name, giving you greater flexibility throughout the loan and at the end of it.
No Early Payoff Penalty
Since you’re the owner, you can pay off the loan, sell the vehicle, or use it as a trade-in anytime without significant penalty for early termination.
No First & Last Payments
Good news! With the Lease Alternative Loan, you don’t have to make first and last payments at the time of loan disbursement like many leases require.
Mileage Options
Choose a 12k, 15k, or 18k miles per year plan that suits your needs. Excess mileage is only $.10 per mile, much lower than a lease that costs up to $.25 per mile.
No “Back End” Surprises
Rest assured that there are no hidden fees associated with this loan, either during the term or at the end if you choose to return the vehicle. Unlike leases which often have unclear excess wear and tear clauses.
Local Return Option
Say hello to flexibility. If you move during your loan term and you want to return the vehicle, you can do so wherever you are. There’s no need to return it to the original dealership, like with most leases.
Private Auto Insurance Flexibility
Choose the private auto insurance coverage that suits your needs. No more being limited by someone else’s insurance requirements.4
Realistic Residual Value
The Lease Alternative Loan uses standard industry residual values. The residual value is not inflated to arrive at an arbitrary lower payment. This means if you elect to keep the vehicle upon loan termination, you will not have to pay an inflated price to pay off the loan.
