Do I need to make the down-payment on cars listed in swapalease

Newbie question here . I have never been through a Private transfer before. So on the cars listed at SL, am I expected to make the downpayment as well?

If you’re asking about the downpayment being asked by the original lessee/seller, then the simple answer is yes. Though as with everything, you can always try negotiating it. Some folks will budge, some won’t. YMMV
