for a part-time student/low income worker, and first-time car owner, i am thinking that shopping for lease transfers might be smarter and more affordable than financing for a used car. I have been looking for ways to afford a car to fit my financial situation and I came across several ads on craigslist offering lease takeovers (some are even offering to pay for transfer fees).. At something like $300 a month with 25 payments left on an '08 model, i am easily tempted. what are pros and cons of lease transfers, and what should I watch out for?
