Bmw lease transfer and buy out to second person

hey guys hows it going. i have a 2020 bmw 330i thats coming up towards the end of my lease. one of my friends is interested in buying the car after my lease is up.

i wanted to ask what would be the easiest way to go about doing it? i was thinking of transferring over the lease to him to prevent BMW not honoring the price to him. do lease transfers allow buyouts to the second person?

what is the easiest and most pain free way to do this?

Need at least 6 months remaining to transfer, extend then transfer to friend then friend buys.

If lease transfers the buyout will be the same - excl taxes and fees which are jurisdiction dependent ofc.

Alt id look into contacting a bmw dealer (Manhattan is corporate owned so maybe start there), to see if they can process the buyout for your friend in exchange for their document and paperwork fees

I agree with Hershey,

The easiest and Least Painful way is go to the BMW dealer and see if they can Buy it from you and Sell it to your friend right there (No need to wait for the end of the lease).

They should do it with a small processing fee, but that should be less than a TransferFee+Buyout Fee.
