Many of us will likely to bring the leased vehicle back to the same dealership where they purchased it from. Thinking by returning the vehicle to the point of purchase this may help them ease the transition. Well wished thinking but not always true, the original dealer will have very little to gain from breaking your current lease. Sales person will likely not be paid at all from the transaction unless you are purchasing another car. There is very little incentive to help you break your current lease other than the possibility you may return in the future to purchase another car. It is important you have all the facts and figures ready to make the process as painless as possible for the dealership.

When returning a lease early, you will see first hand about just how important is your vehicle’s resale value. Use a GM vehicle for example, the 3 year old “Chevy Malibu” is only worth 7500 but you still have 14000 out standing from your current loan with GM Canada. You will be responsible for the difference your self to break that lease. Use a “Honda Civic” for example, your 3 year old Civic will easily resale for 12000, and your outstanding balance of 14000 will be a lot easier to deal with. Can I sell the vehicle myself to get more money you ask? Of course you can, feel free to take your time to advertise your vehicle in the local papers, and compete with dealers. Get a few door knocks and tire kickers. There is a good chance you will be pressed for time when trying to break your lease. Therefore this scenario is unlikely.

When it’s a good time to break my lease? Generally speaking the later the better, that is because your lease is calculated based on the vehicle depreciation value. The closer you are to your expiry date on your lease contract, the closer the calculated resale value will be to the real market value.

Who determines the “market value”, well the short answer to that question is “consumers”. Just like the volatile stock market the value of a vehicle is determined by demand. More demand means higher resale value, and less demand means lower resale value. How many people do you know will first consider a 1997 Geo Metro as their next used car to purchase? And what do you think a used 1997 Geo Metro will be worth in the eyes of the consumers?

Can I shop for a higher value for my trade in when I am breaking my lease? Yes you can, feel free to spend some time with few dealerships to get a trade in value for your car. Chances are they will only be 500 apart, after all the resale value of your vehicle is carefully documented by a book dealer often use called “Canadian black book”.

What is the minimum duration before I can see an increase in my credit score?

The minimum term when it comes to rebuilding one’s credit history usually takes 12 month, or one year. This is the typical timeline a lender will use to judge your improvement when it comes to paying. So it is crucial for you not to miss any bill payments during this period. It is always good to show initiative without collection agency’s interference. For example you are paying off small debts voluntarily versus ignoring collection phone calls after phone calls.

You shouldn’t seek out any additional loans during this period unless it is absolutely necessary. For example, if you are driving a vehicle that is been financed, don’t try to upgrade to a better vehicle within that time period. Stay with that car, and the monthly payment to show the lender you have creditability and stability. This in turn will improve your financial image and it is telling the banks you are financially matured to take on more responsibilities.

Increase your income! I understand this is easier said then done, but if you have the opportunity to increase your income through a part time job or additional hours. This will directly reflect on your purchase power, in the eyes of the lender the more income you have the more payments you can afford. After all the banks are in it to make a profit through the interest they are charging you, they just want to make sure their investment is secure and protected.

Bad credit history usually means a longer wait period for many, this is important step for the banks or lenders to asses your risk factors. When your loan application is processed through the dealer, it is submitted automatically to all the sub-prime lenders at once. Perhaps some of them decided to turn your down, but others have not yet made up their mind. Don’t panic, let the application take its normal course and you soon should hear some encouraging news.

It is important for you not to seek credit during this time, nothing can be more damaging than you trying to submit another application through another dealer within a short period of time. There are things that may help your application, such as added insurances for your loan. By adding “loss of income” insurance, or “disability” insurance, it will protect the bank’s investment or loan. Therefore your application may look more favorable in the lender’s eyes. These add on insurances can cost on average 600-1500 in Canada, but it does offer protection in case you got laid off, or become disabled to pay back your loan. They are not always necessary especially you can proof to the bank your work stability, or have very good credit score. But in the case of bad credit car loan, it can help your application to obtain approval.
