Swapalease.com Reports Decline in Lease Credit Approvals for the Month of July

/EINPresswire.com/ -- CINCINNATI, OH--(Marketwired - August 17, 2017) - Swapalease.com, the nation's largest car lease marketplace, reports car lease credit applicants registered just a 54.3% approval rate for July.

July's credit approval rate is showing a decrease from the previous month (68.8%). A year ago the approvals rate was just slightly higher, reaching 57.7%. Overall, this year's credit approval numbers have been somewhat lower than in years past.

This dip in lease credit approvals continues to be attributed to several factors that include a higher volume of lease applicants with less-than-stellar credit worthiness, as well as a higher number of applicants looking for vehicles in higher-priced categories. During this time of year, Swapalease.com typically sees a dip in the approval ratings because students with lower credit scores are looking for vehicle leases entering the new college school year.

"Both the state of the economy and the increased number of applicants indicate that more consumers are ready to lease vehicles," said Scot Hall, Executive Vice President of Swapalease.com. "Unfortunately, their credit doesn't always reflect that readiness. As the economy continues to improve, giving more people the incentive to lease vehicles out of their reach, we expect the number of declines to be higher than normal."
