Cons of Auto Leasing:

Even if there are advantages of leasing a car, just like everything else, there are down sides to this practice also. Having an idea of the put offs can often help in making a decision.

• When you are leasing a car, you cannot claim complete ownership of it. You can however buy the leased vehicle once the term is over, but that is just a consideration and does not work out for everyone.
• In the long term, leasing a car can be expensive on the pocket. But, for those who are more eager on riving new cars at the end of a lease period, this does not seem like an disadvantage.
• Monthly payments become a re-occurrence with auto leasing. On the other hand, after an auto loan is over and you own the car completely, it adds on to the value of that vehicle.
• The vehicle has to be maintained well. You are in no position to make any changes, either temporary or permanent to the vehicle as you do not own it completely. Any wear and tear or repair jobs needs to be taken care of and paid from your pocket.
• If you have to give up the vehicle prior to the termination of the lease period, you need to pay penalties and early termination fees. The amount for such penalties is not less.
• There is a certain number of miles that you are allowed to cover on your leased vehicle. Above that, you need to pay excess mileage penalty for every additional mile. Then again, if you end up with lesser miles, then that is a loss on your part.

That is why it makes sense to owe the advantages and disadvantages before finalizing a decision.
