Our guests are often curious about the difference between leasing and purchasing cars for sale in Wisconsin. Generally speaking, the main difference between leasing a car and buying it is that when you lease, you only pay for the portion of the car that you use over the term of the lease with a pre-set value at the end. If you purchase the vehicle, you have to pay full price, but the vehicle is yours until you decide to sell it. Leasing generally offers lower payments, depending on the length of the loan you’d alternately consider. We are your premier source for vehicle leasing and leased vehicles for sale, not to mention plenty of affordable car lease deals.

Below, jump into the real details on how to lease a car!
Yes it is technically possible to lease a used vehicle, in concept. But, the short answer is no. Most automotive leasing companies and banks do not offer leasing on used vehicles. It was once relatively popular, but many of the advantages of vehicle leasing disappear when you lease a used vehicle and you could often lease a new vehicle for the same or lower payment than the same used vehicle. The main reason for this is very low incentivized interest on new vehicles versus standard rates on used vehicles.
This question can only be answered based on your personal automotive needs. Generally if you keep your vehicle for less than 6 years, you’d often be better off financially by leasing your vehicle. If you could get a new vehicle every 3-years for less cost and far less risk than getting a new vehicle every 5-years, why wouldn’t you? See our Leasing vs. Buying page for more info.
Many automobile lessees don’t understand their options on how to be done with their leased vehicle at the end of the term, or during the lease period . Read more for the most common ways to end your lease:
Just like different vehicles have different prices, they have differing lease rates, too. Sometimes you can lease a $45,000 for a lower monthly payment than a $25,000 vehicle. There are really three factors that determine one lease payment from another: depreciation, interest, and capitalized cost reduction (discounts, rebates, money down, trade equity).
Yes. Just like on a purchase, the dealer may have some flexibility when it comes to the discounted price. Most advertised leases already include a substantial dealer discount and applicable incentives to catch your eye. Dealers with a one-price or haggle-free environment will already include their discounts into the lease calculations.
“Bad Credit” is a difficult term to define. But, leasing companies generally have options for people with differing credit histories. Just like on a loan, those with credit concerns are deemed a higher risk approval and will see higher interest costs and some individuals will have their application declined.
A lease payment is largely based on the projected depreciation of the vehicle, less any down payment plus interest. If you’re looking to calculate your payment manually, we have the break down for you:
ABSOLUTELY!!! You can trade it in at any time through your lease term and even at the very end. Although ideally, your payoff on the lease is exactly the same as the market value of the vehicle at the end of the term, this is not always the case.
Sometimes referred to as the “term”, most leases are between two and four years long. Dealerships often list the terms in months: 24, 36, 39, 42, 48. Simply divide by 12 to figure how many years the lease is for. 42 / 12 = 3.5 years
