Safety tips

Before you pay anything

• Confirm transfer eligibility directly with the leasing company.
• Get every term in writing — never rely only on the seller's statements.
• Confirm whether the original lessee remains liable after the transfer.
• Do not send large payments before you have the transfer paperwork.

Inspect the vehicle

• Inspect the car in person or hire a professional inspection.
• Verify the current mileage against the listing and remaining allowance.
• Check for excess wear that could trigger end-of-lease charges.

Understand the fees

• Transfer fee and who pays it.
• Disposition fee at lease end.
• Excess wear-and-tear charges.
• Over-mileage fees per mile.
• Lease-end buyout price, if you might keep the car.

Protect your account

• Keep conversations in-app until you trust the other party.
• Never share passwords or one-time codes.
• Report suspicious listings or messages — we review every report.

LookyLeasy does not transfer the lease directly. Buyers and sellers must verify transfer eligibility, fees, credit approval, and liability rules with the leasing company.
