Car Leasing
I currently have a bank loan for a van. I can afford to pay the monthly loan payments based on a budget that I`ve prepared for myself. However the fuel economy is horrible and I am an on-the-road salesperson. My husband (soon to be ex) wants to take over the van payments. I want to lease a small car with excellent fuel economy. Does it make a difference whether I lease prior to, or after, the Consumer Proposal has been filed and accepted? Without a car, I will be jobless.
You may find it a little easier to lease prior to the filing of a consumer proposal, but the difference is likely marginal. So you are best to look for a more fuel efficient vehicle and when you find the right lease rates jump at the deal, regardless of whether you have filed or not.
