Used Car Leasing at D&M

chris on November 27, 2018

Can you lease a used car?

Many car shoppers in the market for a used car are trying to get a better deal because new car prices are so high.  A new vehicle loses as much as 25% of its value in the first year alone. So when you get a used car, someone else has already taken the initial hit on depreciation which gives you the payment savings you want.

This concept is smart but how could these used car buyers make an even smarter decision?

A D&M EZ Lease on a quality, one owner D&M lease trade or lease return has payments that are even lower than financing. Did you find a car or truck you want but the payments seem too high? If you think payments on used car financing are a good deal used car leasing is likely the answer.

More and more car buyers are switching to leasing and statistics show used car leasing is a valuable alternative to traditional used car financing.

What are my options for used car leasing with D&M?

D&M Auto Leasing offers a wide selection of used car leases on great condition, low mileage off lease vehicles. Currently when you lease a used car at D&M, you won’t make any payments for up to 60 days on any qualified lease.

One of the many added benefits of leasing a car from D&M is that if you need to opt out of your lease for any reason there are no early termination penalties added to your payoff.

D&M Leasing has a friendly, local staff that will be happy to assist you with any questions you may have. Nearly seventy percent of their business is from repeat or referred clients.

Why You Should Lease With D&M Auto Leasing

chris on October 11, 2018

Why Should I Lease My Next Car with D&M?

Because lease payments are up to 50% lower than financing, you are able to get a nicer car for the same, or maybe, even less than the car you were considering buying. D&M has the latest models of vehicles and they come with features like driver’s assistance, emergency braking, and lane keep assist. Also, you can get your brand new auto delivered to you today.

Why Should I Consider Leasing Over Buying?

Buying a car has some advantages for those who drive extremely high miles or who intend to pay a vehicle off and keep it for 5 years or more.  However, buying a car also has several drawbacks. For one, it’s more expensive in the short run. Unless you make a substantial down payment, your car payments will be significantly higher than if you leased it.  When buying you have to pay for the entire vehicle no matter how long you intend to use it. With leasing you only pay for the portion of the car you will use. That means less liability in a heavily depreciating asset and lower total cost in most cases. Have you ever actually held the title to a car you have financed long term? Have you ever owed more on a car that it was worth? Leasing may be the answer!

What Are the Benefits of a No Money Down Car Lease?

When leasing a car, many experts suggest leasing a car with no money down. For example, if for any reason, during the lease, you total the car or it gets stolen GAP insurance, a part of every EZ Lease, pays off the lease. However if you put a large down payment on the lease it is lost, no matter how long you have had it.

Here at D&M, we’re here to help you chose the plan and car that’s right for you. A low, or no, down payment lease on a luxury vehicle, a family SUV or sports car or perhaps you’d like one of our quality pre-owned lease returns. Check out our monthly car lease deals for specials on our most popular vehicles. All options are open and a friendly, professional D&M agent will give you all of the information you need to make the decision that is best for you.

What is Gap Insurance?

chris on September 24, 2018

Protecting Your Vehicle with Gap Insurance

GAP insurance covers your “gap” liability and makes it easier to replace your vehicle quickly saving you time and money.

In the event a lease car is totaled or stolen GAP insurance pays the difference between the insurance settlement and the contractual payoff. At D&M Leasing our EZ Lease and EZ Lease Plus include Gap Insurance at no extra cost to you!

GAP insurance is standard on all D&M Auto Leasing contracts. You get the coverage you need if your vehicle is ever totaled or stolen and not recovered. An experienced D&M leasing professional to guide you through the process. You are not responsible for the payoff amount if it is higher than the insurance settlement, just pay your deductible!

High Mileage Lease

chris on August 21, 2018

Dodge the Mileage Penalties with a High Mileage Lease from D&M

One of the main reasons many in the market forego leasing their next vehicle is the strict limit on how many miles they can drive per year. Most lease deals restrict yearly mileage to 12,000 miles or less per year and impose exorbitant mileage penalties. The average commuter could be forced into a long-term commitment to purchase or finance their vehicle rather than enter into one of these low mileage leases.

If you are someone who is interested in the idea of leasing but are not comfortable with low mileage restrictions, D&M is here to help!  At D&M, we have multiple options to get you driving a brand new car today without the added stress of lower mileage restrictions.

Here is where D&M is different:

High Mileage Leasing

With D&M’s proprietary EZ Lease, you get high mileage on top of the lowest rates and best trade-in values around.  With flexible yearly mileage caps, your daily commute won’t stop you from leasing the car of your dreams.  Add in weekend trips, cruising the city, and taking the kids to practice and you can still have all the mileage you need!  If you are a frequent traveler or commuter or drive for business and worry about locking into a fixed-mileage contract, D&M still has more to offer.

No matter how you drive, give us a call or ask for a quote.  Our service specialists are here for to answer all of your questions and get you started on a brand-new mileage-friendly lease.  You can also check out the full details on our EZ Lease and EZ Lease Plus on our website.

What to Look For When Leasing a Car?

chris on May 7, 2018

If you are in the beginning stages of researching the car you would like to lease, read this article to learn what to look for when leasing a car.

Low Monthly Payments

What makes a great lease deal is simplified by low monthly payments. Low monthly payments are a result of a high residual value.

High Residual Value

Residual value is a car’s estimated worth at the end of the lease. You want this number to be high because when you lease, you only pay for the vehicle’s depreciation.

The depreciation is the difference between the vehicle’s original value and its residual value, therefore the higher the residual, the less depreciation you will pay. The depreciation is divided by the total lease term in months to determine your base monthly payment.

Vehicle’s with High Residual Value

Unlike buying, leasing a more expensive car can actually have a lower monthly payment than a less expensive vehicle. Luxury brands, like Acura and Lexus, are smart auto leasing options because they are well known for retaining their value. Toyota, Subaru, and Honda have a reputation as non-luxury brands that hold their value as well.

Brand new models also have higher residuals compared to last year’s model. This is why it is common practice to lease new cars rather than used. Used cars have already depreciated, making their end of lease worth significantly lower.

If you already have a car in mind, you can find out its residual by calling the dealership, looking it up on a vehicle valuation site, or you can save yourself the work and get a free quote from D&M Auto Leasing.
