Get out of your car lease.
Or take one over.

Skip the early-termination fee. Take over someone else's short-term lease - or hand off yours and let a qualified driver finish the payments.

Eff/mo = payment + (drive-off + broker fee) ÷ term. Figures may or may not include state/local taxes - confirm with the broker. Updated daily.

Free for sellers. Free for buyers. Always.

We don't charge you to list a lease. We don't charge you to take one over. We don't take a commission when a transfer completes. The only fee you pay is your lease bank's transfer fee - and you'd pay that whether you used us or called the bank yourself.

The lease bank's own transfer fee (typically $135–$625 depending on the bank) is paid directly to the bank and is the same whether you use us or not. See our brand-by-brand fee breakdown.

For drivers

Want a car for 9 months - not 36?

How it works

1

List or browse

Sellers post the car, payment, and remaining months. Buyers search by make, model, payment, or state.

2

Buyer reaches out

Interested drivers message the seller through TradeMyLease. Phone and email stay private until both parties agree.

3

Bank approves the transfer

The lease bank credit-checks the new driver, you both sign the transfer paperwork, and the lease officially moves over. Done.

Takes 5 minutes to post. Most listings start getting inquiries within 48 hours.

Trust & safety

Built on trust - every listing is human-verified

Trust is the whole product on a marketplace like this, so we don't leave it to algorithms. Before any lease goes live, the seller proves physical access to the car with a VIN-plate photo and an odometer shot, the VIN is cross-checked against the federal NHTSA database, and a real person on our team reviews everything. Verified badges on each listing show exactly what we confirmed - and what we haven't - so you never have to guess.

A note from the founder

"I got tired of competitor lease sites charging me to list, then hounding me to buy marketing add-ons I never wanted. So I built the opposite: simple, fast, and free. No listing fees, no upsells, no sales calls. Just post your lease and find someone to take it over."

TradeMyLease comes from MKN Web Solutions in Detroit, Michigan. I've spent 20+ years as a senior software engineer, and our platforms serve millions of users - we design, build, and run every one of them ourselves. This site runs on that same engineering, which is a big part of why it can stay free: no venture money to pay back, no sales team to feed.

I also answer the email. If you write in about a listing, a broker, or something that's broken, the reply comes from the person who built it - not a support queue.
