Keep in mind that her payoff excludes tax, title, license and any lease fees. Additionally, if she purchases the vehicle directly, she’ll have to wait for a physical title before she call sell her vehicle. (Can potentially take several weeks)
Purchasing and selling doesn’t seem worth it to me in this situation.

Thanks! So this is in Texas so tax is already paid.
Even so, I would have to disagree - An 2-3k (after fees) for my Mother would be huge for just a few weeks of keeping the car then flipping to Carmax.

All Toyota leases I have seen have excluded sales tax on the payoff. Maybe you’re think of dealer inventory tax?
Also, keep in mind that your vehicle will have to be reappraised once you actually receive the title. Turn around time is closer to a month +.
