About Leasehackr

 

Leasehackr is the web’s largest community for car leasing and automotive financial literacy.

We produce independent, original content to guide shoppers through the seemingly daunting process of buying or leasing a car. Our creative resources have been featured in Automotive News, Bloomberg, Nerdwallet, New York Times, and Yahoo! Finance.

At the heart of Leasehackr is our discussion forum. Unlike other platforms which are built with strong financial support and commercial interest, Leasehackr is community-driven and centers around crowdsourcing knowledge. Members help each other by sharing experiences, reviewing offers, and answering questions on car leasing and personal finance.

How was Leasehackr founded?

Leasehackr was founded in 2015 as a passion project by Victoria (@littleviolette) and Michael (@michael). Sharing the frustration around the opaque and seemingly confusing world of car shopping, we created Leasehackr to unearth the exciting possibilities of leasing when done in an informed way. Leasehackr quickly evolved from a humble blog to a community where buyers and sellers exchange insights and deals.

Despite Leasehackr’s growth, which has completely been organic, we have worked tirelessly to keep Leasehackr true to its core — educating and empowering the consumer to make better decisions. We hope to keep Leasehackr a helpful, community-powered resource with your participation and support! 

How does Leasehackr stay free and open?
