How to read these numbers
- Due at signing on a lease is everything you pay on signing day: the first payment, the down payment, tax, the acquisition fee, the doc fee and registration.
- Money factor is the lease interest rate set by the bank. Multiply it by 2400 to get an approximate APR.
- Residual value is what the bank says the car is worth at lease end. A higher residual means a lower payment.
- In California, lease sales tax is charged on each monthly payment and once at signing on the down payment (capitalized cost reduction), the acquisition fee and the doc fee, at the rate of the place where the car is registered. Registration (DMV) is not taxed, and tax is not charged on the full price of the car.
- The Hunter Lease service fee is paid once at booking. It is not part of the monthly payment or the due at signing amount.
- Hunter Lease is California’s platform for pre-negotiated new-car deals. You sign directly with the authorized dealer and the lender.

Based on statistical data from Hunter Lease users. This is not a pre-approval. The bank makes the decision.
The estimates are for $3,000 down on a lease and $5,000 down on a loan.
Negative items: repossession, 60+ days late, bankruptcy, fraud. A co-signer never lowers your odds: we show the better of the two, yours alone or with the co-signer.
What moves the estimate in these rows: a co-signer (on a lease 66% instead of 64% with a 740+ score and 3+ years of history, 66% instead of 60% with a 680-719 score and 1 to 3 years of history, 66% instead of 34% with a 620-659 score and 6 months to 1 year of history, 66% instead of under 10% with under 6 months of history), a first car loan or lease (64% instead of 91% with a 740+ score, 60% instead of 76% with a 680-719 score) and the type of deal (on a loan the estimate is 1-2 points lower than on a lease, or the same).
The same Kia EV9 in the format dealers advertise
The same 2026 Kia EV9 Light Long Range RWD lease (36 months, 10,000 miles a year, ZIP 90210, 10.25% sales tax, credit tier 1 (740+)), calculated by Hunter Lease at several amounts due at signing: the payment before tax, the format dealers advertise, next to the payment with tax that you actually pay.
| Due at signing | Payment before tax, as dealers advertise it | Payment with tax, as you pay it |
|---|---|---|
| $3,000, the main scenario on this page | $550.69/mo before tax | $604.65/mo with tax, of which $53.96 is tax |
| $3,999 | $519.90/mo before tax | $573.19/mo with tax, of which $53.29 is tax |
| $4,999 | $491.80/mo before tax | $542.21/mo with tax, of which $50.41 is tax |
| $5,999 | $463.70/mo before tax | $511.23/mo with tax, of which $47.53 is tax |
Every amount due at signing in the table already includes the first payment and the tax collected upfront. The fees are the $650 acquisition fee, the $85 doc fee and the $805.35 DMV registration: at $3,999, $4,999 and $5,999 they are fully inside the amount due at signing; at $3,000, $572.39 of them is inside and the remaining $967.96 is added to the monthly payment.
