Free car lease buyout calculator from Fynvorax. Compare residual buyout cost to market value and financing to decide if buying your lease makes sense.
Compare lease buyout price to market value. If residual is $18k but car worth $22k, buying out may create $4k instant equity — minus taxes/fees.
No, in that scenario you are overpaying. Choosing to hand the vehicle key back to the company avoids absorbing the steep commercial depreciation yourself.
Often yes — you capture equity. Finance the buyout or pay cash, then keep or sell the car.
Purchase option fee, registration, sales tax, and sometimes disposition fee if not buying. Include all in the calculator.
Sometimes with captive lender near lease end; market comps strengthen your case.
