Lease buyout — What You Need to Know
The lessee purchases the leased vehicle at the end of or during a lease term. The leasing company (lessor) transfers the title to the buyer and a bill of sale documents the purchase price, residual value, and payoff terms.
Seller guidance
As the lessor (leasing company or financial institution), you must provide a clean title or title assignment once the buyout is complete and all fees are settled. The buyout price is typically the residual value stated in the lease agreement plus applicable purchase fees and sales tax. Provide the lessee a written purchase agreement or bill of sale confirming the purchase price, odometer reading, and VIN.
Buyer guidance
Your lease agreement states the residual value — the guaranteed buyout price. Compare this to current market value (Kelley Blue Book, Edmunds) before proceeding. You will owe sales tax on the purchase price at time of registration. Check whether your state allows you to take the title directly or whether it must route through a dealer. Some states (e.g., Texas) require lease buyouts to go through a licensed dealer.
Legal note
Lease buyouts are governed by the original lease agreement and applicable state motor vehicle laws. The Consumer Leasing Act (15 U.S.C. § 1667) and Federal Reserve Regulation M (12 CFR Part 213) require lessors to disclose buyout rights and residual values at lease origination. Some states impose dealer-only rules on buyout transactions (TX Transportation Code § 503.001). Sales tax applies in most states on the full purchase price or residual value.
Lease buyout checklist
- Obtain the payoff/residual amount in writing from the leasing company
- Compare residual value to current fair market value before committing
- Confirm whether your state requires the buyout to be completed through a dealer
- Arrange financing or cash payoff — confirm payoff wire instructions with lessor
- Receive clean title assignment and bill of sale from the leasing company
- Register the vehicle and pay applicable sales tax within your state deadline

Washington Lease buyout side by side template — when to file
Utah requires title transfer within 30 days of the sale date on the bill of sale. For lease buyout transactions specifically, file at DMV – Washington (Visit https://dmv.utah.gov for the nearest Washington, UT office) during normal hours: Mon–Fri 8:00 AM–5:00 PM. Miss the 30-day window and Utah typically charges a late-transfer penalty plus accrued use tax, and the seller can remain on the title for civil liability until the buyer completes retitling. Bring the signed title, the completed Washington bill of sale, your government-issued ID, and payment for the $6.00 title transfer fee plus 7.60% sales tax on the purchase price.
Template reminder. Whether you keep your template as a blank template you fill in by hand, both buyer and seller should leave the signing with an identical executed copy. The buyer needs the original to present at DMV – Washington; the seller keeps a duplicate to prove the date of transfer if a future liability question arises before the title fully retitles.
