Personal Car Leasing, Made Simple.
If you are considering leasing a new car you usually need a good credit rating. If not, you'll have to opt for bad credit car leasing which is generally more expensive but accessible to the wider population.
You may have paid several bills late which has ultimately affected your credit score rating, entered in a personal bankruptcy or IVA. Whatever your circumstances there is usually a option available.
What contributes to a low credit score?
Car leasing made simple. There are both positive and negative contributors towards a low credit score, those factors are;
Meeting the deadline for paying off a credit agreement, the overall percentage use of outstanding credit, entitlement to participate in National Elections, how long you have been living in your place of residence, whether or not you have a mortgage, personal Loans, whether or not you have a credit card, overall amount of credit card purchases within the past six months,the total amount you pay off your credit card each month, Catalogue purchases, CCJ’s and IVA’s.
Will a Funder Work on Credit Score?
It mostly depends on its efficiency, due to this, most lenders use an “auto approval” system which bases itself on credit score to make a decision. So, with a high credit score you are guaranteed acceptance. There are many people with an exceptionally high credit score but a 40K CCJ still receives an instant approval.
However, if you find yourself without instant approval, then a human will evaluate your credit score, history of payments and how many loans/ borrowing methods you have. The more you would like to borrow the more senior the underwriter would need to be in order to give you approval.
If the funders are likely to work out a deal with you because of defaults from (find and a half years ago) then great! However, if they don’t, you can always test at a short-term lease.
Is it possible i would have to go through a broker?
If you do have low credit, the broker would be your only option. Dealerships usually only deal with prime funders, whereas some more established brokers would have access to more advanced funders who are agreeably prepared to finance those of a Bad credit rating.
When looking for a Broker to go through the process with, you should ensure that they ask a lot of questions so you know that they fully understand your circumstances. If they don’t make the effort to get to know your situation better, then they may ask you to go through several credit searches which will just lower your score significantly. You must ensure that you have received the best advice possible from a well experienced and highly trusting broker.
who is allowed to lease with a Low credit score?
Like with anything related to car leasing, it all depends.
You will notice that a lot of car dealers and Brokers are very put off when you tell them you have bad credit, and write you off straight away. Two reasons for this are because they might not have to knowledge or guidance to support your situation or they don't have the right contacts.
Some car dealers & Brokers will work with people who help deal with Bad credit ratings (Specialist Finance Houses) and will have more than enough experience to help you. The most important thing to remember is honesty from the beginning. You will not only gain respect from the dealer or Broker but the process will be made much more easier & lighter.

One benefit of leasing is that you don't need to run a my car check as you don't own the vehicle. All responsibility lies with your supplying car lease company.
If you do plan to buy the car after your lease period has expired, ensure you run a completely free vehicle history check. It will confirm the car has no outstanding finance from the previous lease contract.
