National Press Release

CINCINNATI, June 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Swapalease.com the World's Largest Lease Marketplace announces Top Ten Lease Transfer Reasons. The list was compiled using a two-tier approach based on Swapalease.com user feedback. Results data was obtained directly from users through the web site as well as through employee user interaction, Swapalease.com management noted.

    1.  Financial concerns
    2.  Lifestyle changes
    3.  Want a new vehicle
    4.  Mileage concerns
    5.  No longer need vehicle
    6.  Gas prices
    7.  Family size
    8.  Dislike their present vehicle
    9.  Insurance costs
    10. Maintenance costs

Perhaps not surprisingly, Swapalease.com employees routinely commented that "Gas Prices" is quickly moving up the ranks as a motivator for lessee's wishing to transfer. However, employees conceded that fuel costs are typically not the primary reason behind the decision to transfer. Michael Citron, a sales manager for Swapalease.com summarized by saying, "I've spoke to thousands of clients over the years at Swapalease and I have definitely noticed an increase in gas price talk over the last several months, but it is still not the key rationale given."

Financial concerns, the top response incorporated a range of user feedback including, but not limited to mortgage related issues, loss of employment, and general budgetary concerns. Lifestyle changes remain a strong motive, as well indicated by runner up status. The most prevalent example provided by Swapalease.com users was a growing family and the fact that their present vehicle will not be able to accommodate their needs in terms of people and gear hauling capacity. Interestingly, Swapalease.com clients citing that they simply want a new vehicle as a basis for transferring a lease landed the third position despite frequent media reports indicating economic slowdown and downturns.
