Car Lease
Finding you the right vehicle means making sure you get everything you need throughout each step of the car-buying process. That includes getting you the right financing, which can have a huge impact on your budget and finances for years to come. If you are interested in enjoying a new vehicle without long-term obligations, then leasing a car could be the perfect option for you.
With the right car lease, you get the vehicle you want with low monthly payments and the freedom to change to another ride in just a few years. Although leasing is not right for everyone, we find that it works well for people in a wide range of situations. So consider which financing option works best for you, and rest assured that our team can handle everything for you.
Basics of Leasing a Vehicle
How Does a Lease Work?
If you are considering a lease, then it is a good idea to get some basics down, especially if this is your first time leasing a car. When you lease a vehicle, you essentially agree to drive a new car for several years without buying it. You typically make payments each month, but rather than paying off a loan, you are paying for the depreciation that occurs while you drive it.
Terms can vary when looking at one lease and another, but leases typically have limits on how much mileage you can put on the vehicle while you drive. This usually takes the form of a mileage limit for each year, although you can negotiate different terms if you know that you will need more miles than the default. You can also pay for extra miles as you enjoy your car.
Once your lease ends, usually after two or three years, you bring your vehicle back to us. As long as you have taken good care of it, then there are no other obligations on your part. We'll take a close look at it, you'll sign the final paperwork, and then you are free to move forward. You'll have several options available at that point, which we'll go over in more detail later.
Leasing vs Auto Loans
Leasing is just one of several different types of car financing that you can choose; the most common other choice is getting an auto loan to help you buy a vehicle. The main difference between these two options is that loans are for buying a car that you want to have for a long time, or want to sell later. With a lease, you are not buying the vehicle.
Auto loans typically have different terms, too, including a lack of mileage limits like leases have. Since you are only using a leased car for a short time, we want to make sure it stays in great shape and retains as much value as possible. When you buy a car, you are free to do whatever you want without limitations such as mileage, since you are working towards ownership.

Help With Trade-Ins and Lease Ending
We Make Trade-Ins Simple
No matter what kind of financing is right for you, one of the best ways to keep your costs down is by reducing the price of your vehicle—even with a lease. Using your current car as a trade-in can greatly decrease how much you need to pay for your next ride. This can lead to very low monthly payments with a lease, while getting rid of something you no longer drive.
Our team makes the trade-in process quick and easy for you, so you do not have to worry about a thing. You can get started right here on our website by getting an estimate for the value of your vehicle using our simple online tool. This gives you a basic sense of what your car is worth as a trade-in, which can make it easier to have a realistic picture of your finances and budget.
Once you bring your trade-in vehicle to us, we will give it a quick inspection and then make you a fair offer for it based on its current market value. We will handle all necessary paperwork and everything else required to trade in your vehicle. Just have your title with you, and any other important documents, and then leave the rest to our finance team.
What Happens When Your Lease Ends?
We have touched on this a little already, but it is worth a deeper look because it is a very important part of leasing a vehicle. You can see your lease paperwork for this information, and we are happy to go over this when discussing lease options with you. Prior to the end of your lease, you first need to bring it to us for an inspection to look for any issues that need to be fixed.
Minor wear and tear is typically expected and accepted within normal leasing guidelines, but anything that goes beyond excessive wear and tear may result in charges. These bigger repairs will be pointed out to you so that you can decide whether you want to handle them before your lease ends. If you do not address necessary repairs, then we will do it after you return your vehicle, and you will be charged for them. So we suggest taking care of issues ahead of time, since it makes things easier.
Once the lease ends, bring your vehicle to us, and we will give it a final inspection. From there, you simply sign some final paperwork, and then you are done. That is when you can check out a new vehicle to lease, consider buying something else, or even buy the car you have been leasing. No matter what you want to do, it's easy.

Service and Maintenance for Your Vehicle
While you drive a leased vehicle, you need to follow the maintenance schedule for it set by the manufacturer. This is pretty easy to do, especially since a lease usually only lasts a few years, which is when service is pretty light. For the most part, you just need to have the oil changed, tires rotated and likely replaced, and some routine inspections.
Our team can take care of scheduled maintenance and most types of bigger repairs for you, so you have nothing to worry about. This includes:
- Oil and filter changes
- Air filter replacements
- Other fluid checks and top-offs
- Tire rotations and repairs
- New tires and installation
- Brake inspections and service
- Multi-point vehicle inspections
If anything beyond routine service comes up, through no fault of your own, then that is usually covered by the warranty protection for your new Buick or GMC. So you can bring your leased vehicle to us, and we will handle it. With a lease, you do not have to worry about long-term maintenance and repairs, making your life even easier.
