Downside of MSDs?

Would you get MSDs back when you buy the car from the lease?

Yes you would

Suppose you have 1-2 months left on your lease and turn it in early to the dealership to then lease another car from that same dealership. Will you get the MSD back or will they keep it for the remaining 1-2 months?

What difference does it make? Either way you are out that money.

You get your MSDs back after the contract is fulfilled and closed.

Even if you were to turn your car in early as opposed to waiting till the last day?

If you turn it in early and the contract is closed early, you will get it back shortly after.

An example, you trade-in your BMW halfway through the lease and the dealer pays off BMWFS. Your MSDs will be returned to you shortly after that, not at the end of the original lease date.

Got it, thanks so much!

Your best bet would be to keep the MSD with the bank on your next lease if it provides a good reduction of money factor.
