leasing??

[Anonymous]

Is vehicle leasing only offered through auto finance companies affiliated with the manufacturer, such as Ford Credit, or can you go through a regular bank and lease a vehicle.

Dealers finance, banks finance, credit unions finance. IMO, credit unions are the best.

I am not an expert at leasing, but I did not think you could lease a vehicle through a bank.  I thought it was only through the dealership or automaker.  Can someone else chime in and confirm?

There are handful of banks that do offer leasong. The require a rather high credti to do so and they use a different residual tools to calculate or esrimate lease end value. It is always best to lease through the manufacturer's leasing company. They will always offer more rebates. lower lease rates, and better residuals because they cpntrol how much they are willing to loose in the end.

Speaking as a Ford Sales/Finance Rep In MI Market  63% leasing.
