POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE EQUITY

With positive equity, your trade-in vehicle is worth more than the amount still owed on your loan. This allows you to apply the positive equity to your next vehicle lease or purchase as a down payment, reducing the amount you have to finance.

Conversely, negative equity is when your current car, truck, or SUV is worth less than what you still owe on the loan, also commonly known as being “upside-down.” In this situation, the difference between the trade value and payoff amount remains, and you’re responsible for paying the difference.

CAN I TRADE-IN A CAR WITH NEGATIVE EQUITY?

Yes! New vehicle transaction prices have risen over 50% in the last 10 years, far outpacing income growth. In order to keep car payments low, traditional financing companies have offered terms that mirror a home mortgage. The financial result for many people that sign long-term finance contracts is negative equity, so many of our new clients trade their vehicles in with negative equity. The good news is that there is no better place to retire negative equity than in a lease: this is what we specialize in! Visit our negative equity trade-ins page for more info.
