novated leases are one of the most popular ways of ‘owning’ a car. they allow us to drive a safe, cool, new car without having to fork out the massive upfront cost for something that’s, in most cases, a depreciating asset. they also make life easy when we want to upgrade to a new model, allowing us to simply switch models and keep paying the lease.
one of the main things about novated leases is the fact that you need to be employed in order to enter one. which brings us to employers… can any company provide novated leases? or do you need to have a twenty-story headquarters in silicon valley and be one of those ceos who wears an earpiece and gets around the office on a hoverboard?
short answer: no, you don’t. and please don’t let that idea go to your head.
