About Rob Delisa
My name is Rob Delisa, and I’ve been passionate about car leasing for nearly four decades. I leased my first car in 1987 and, since then, have leased or purchased over 20 vehicles. This website originally launched in 2008 under the name MonthlyCarLease.com. A few years ago, I rebranded it to better reflect its evolving content and mission.
After taking some time off last year, I’ve revitalized this site to become what I always envisioned: a place where you can effortlessly find the best lease deals while learning all the insider tips and tricks along the way.
Why I Believe in Leasing
Many people misunderstand leasing, often dismissing it with phrases like “Leasing is fleecing” or calling it a scam. The truth is, leasing can be one of the smartest ways to drive a car—when done right.
I focus on helping drivers understand the Effective Car Payment—the true monthly cost after factoring in fees, incentives, and down payments. A well-structured lease offers:
- Lower monthly payments compared to buying
- Minimal long-term financial risk
- Access to newer, safer vehicles with full warranty coverage
