End of Lease
LeaseWave provides flexibility in the operational, billing and accounting treatment of terminations and extensions of leases. When a lease matures, it can be automatically extended (1) on a month to month basis, (2) for another designated fixed term, (3) terminated with return, (4) terminated with a trade-up, or (5) terminated with purchase of the unit. The accounting and operational implications are automated.
LeaseWave has a dedicated inventory management module that functions as a “virtual parking lot” for off-lease units, whether new or old. Units may be retrieved from inventory for re-leasing, refurbishing, reselling to customers, remarketing to third parties, writing-off, etc. The entire history of each unit is tracked individually, including maintenance work done, lease-related information of leases it was on, drivers associated with it, etc.
