Can You Take Over a Lease?

Ever wonder if you can sublet your friend’s auto lease? This is called a car lease takeover. A lease takeover is an affordable way to take on a small portion of someone else’s lease. If you’re not read to commit to a full lease, and you like to try a few vehicles out for your Caledon commute, lease takeovers are a great option. In fact, many dealers even offer car lease takeover deals to help cut costs even further. Read on to learn more about everything to know about taking over a lease.

How Car Lease Takeovers Work

A lease takeover is when you take on the remaining portion of a lease term that hasn’t ended yet but was initiated by another driver. For instance, if your friend has their heart set on a new car, but they’re obligated to an auto lease, and you happen to love the vehicle they’re currently driving, you can negotiate with us to take on the remainder of the lease. In some cases, you may even have the opportunity to pursue car lease takeover deals, which only sweeten the deal. A car lease takeover can be an exceptional way to save money because you’re only paying for the estimated amount of depreciation on the remainder of the lease term.
