BMW Lease Return

There are few better ways to enjoy a BMW than with a lease. By leasing, you can upgrade to the latest model every couple of years and take advantage of lower payments in the process. However, the BMW lease return process may seem daunting to first-time lease customers. But don't worry - BMW of Cincinnati North is here to help you through the entire leasing process. With our team of experienced professionals on your side, making the most of your BMW lease has never been easier. After you have returned your first leased vehicle, we are sure that you will agree there is no better way to experience the ultimate driving machine.

Leasing a brand-new BMW is a fairly simple process that isn't dramatically different from buying a new car. You visit the dealership, take some models for test drives, and sign a contract for the one you like best. You will have a down payment and monthly payments, just like if you had bought the car, although the payments are generally much lower for lease. The real difference comes at the end of the lease. Instead of trading in your vehicle, haggling over the value, and handling any paperwork needed to transfer the title and pay off any remaining loans, you simply drop off the keys, and you are free to find your next car.

What You Need to Know About BMW Lease Returns

While it may seem complicated if you are facing your first lease return, the truth is that returning a leased vehicle is far simpler than selling a used vehicle that you own - especially if you are still making payments on it. With a leased BMW, all you need to do is return it to a BMW dealership and sign some paperwork. If you have kept your vehicle in good condition and have not gone over the mileage limits stipulated in your lease contract, then you are done with the lease and can start looking for your next ride.

Do I Need to Return My BMW Lease to the Same Dealership?

No, you can return your BMW lease to any BMW dealership. All BMW leases are handled through BMW Financial Services, and lease returns can be accepted by any BMW dealership. Simply contact your local dealership and ask to set up an appointment.

At BMW of Cincinnati North, we make a point to accept all BMW lease returns, and you can even take advantage of our convenient Drive-Up Lease Return Center for quick, stress-free returns. We can handle the full lease return process and get you out the door in as little as 30 minutes.

Can I Return My BMW Lease Early?

Yes, there are many ways to end your BMW lease early. You can contact BMW Financial Services to end your lease at any time, although you will usually pay some penalties for an early lease return. Sometimes BMW offers incentives to end your lease early and upgrade to a new model.

If you have any questions about your lease situation and whether an early lease return makes sense, simply reach out to the team here at BMW of Cincinnati North. We are experienced in handling early lease returns and can talk you through your options to find the best solution to your personal needs.

Do I Need to Have My BMW Lease Return Inspected?

Yes, all leased BMW vehicles must be inspected before being returned. This inspection will check for excessive wear and tear, unrepaired damage, and missing parts and accessories. It will also check the vehicle's mileage to make sure you are within the terms of your lease.

For maximum convenience, you can have your leased vehicle inspected at BMW of Cincinnati North when you return it. You can also schedule a pre-inspection, where we can point out any potential issues with your lease return and give you time to correct them. If there is any damage to your leased vehicle, you can have it repaired right here at our BMW service center.

We Have Options When You Return Your Lease

Returning your BMW lease is an exciting time. While you may be parting with a vehicle that you have enjoyed driving for the past couple of years, you now have the freedom to choose any new vehicle that you want. Unlike when it comes time to sell a vehicle that you own or are financing, ending your lease comes with several different options that you can take advantage of:

#1 - Find a New BMW Lease

This is by far the most common option we see drivers choose here at BMW of Cincinnati North. After experiencing the freedom and convenience of a BMW lease, most of our customers choose to start a new lease after returning their previously leased vehicle. A new lease means that you can choose from any of the latest BMW models, taking advantage of more modern features and improved performance compared to the vehicle that you are returning. By leasing with us again, you will also be rewarded with special loyalty benefits that make leasing an even more attractive option.

#2 - Purchase a New BMW

Although we have many satisfied lease customers, we understand that a lease isn't for everyone. If you travel often and put lots of miles on your vehicles, then it may make more sense to purchase your next BMW. Or perhaps you have found a special model that you know you will want to keep for many years to come. Whatever the reason, we can help you find and purchase your next car, whether that is a brand-new BMW or a high-quality model from our used inventory.

#3 - Buy Your Leased Vehicle

Sometimes you just fall in love with a vehicle that you lease and don't want to trade it in for something new. We understand, and we make it easy to buy out your lease instead of turning it in. If you choose this option, our finance department will calculate the remaining value of your leased vehicle and offer it to you at its fair market price. You are effectively buying a used vehicle that you have known since it rolled off the showroom floor, giving you the best of both worlds.
