Leasing is a great way for dealers, leasing companies, and other brokers to add excess profit to your car by marking up the internal rate they are charged by their bank, i.e., Mercedes Benz, BMW, Lexus, GMC, Ford, Chase Manhattan, Wells Fargo, Bank of America, etc.
The internal buy rate is expressed as a money factor. Because you are not actually borrowing money and because the money factor is not actually an interest rate, the Federal Government does not require dealers to disclose the internal buy rate. Banks and credit unions do not lease to consumers, only to dealers. As a result, you are at the mercy of whoever sells you the car. Therefore, you get taken advantage of.
At HammerAuto.com we always work for you, as your agent and in your best interest. As a broker, we know the internal buy rates of all banks and leasing companies, and we will not permit the dealer to make one penny on your lease. Therefore, we never negotiate lease terms; rather we negotiate sale prices and then dictate your lease rate to the dealer. We then have the company who supplies us with your vehicle draw up the lease, per our exact instructions.
Upon our acceptance and yours, we instruct the supplier to deliver your vehicle to our office in Palo Alto with the exact agreed upon lease terms having been drawn up by Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Chase Manhattan, GMAC, etc.
