3rd Party BMW lease buyout

[AP919]

BMW actually suspended third party buyouts. You can see that here:

List of Lenders that Allow for Third-Party Buyouts

As used car prices soar, many lessees are finding that their vehicles are worth considerably more than their current payoff amount. Instead of simply returning the vehicle at lease end, you may be able to sell the vehicle to a third party (such as Carvana, Shift, Vroom, and CarMax) for a profit. However, some lenders are making it difficult for consumers to access this “lease equity” by charging a higher lease buyout price to third-party buyers than to consumers, or altogether prohibiting third…

AutoNation can buy it out because they have BMW dealerships, so that, EquityHackr, or a broker here who can buy a BMW lease would be your best bet.

It really depends on the car though. Some BMWs leased 3 years ago had residuals north of 60% and they don’t really have much equity right now.
