Hi There. Just wondering if anyone on the forum has had experience with either selling their lease (to swapalease or similar) or transferring their lease via Tesla. I have a model Y with the no buyout option in the lease, but from what I can tell some third party dealerships are also able to buy. Any info is appreciated.

There was a thread that said since late September, Tesla no longer allows people to sell their leases to a third party. Tesla apparently got hip to it.

That's what I seemed to have found as well and the Telsa website still says dealerships can buy all models. I'm also curious if folks have had any experience with the swapalease thing since that's also allowed.

Where could I find this on their website? I’m talking about the part where it says “dealerships can buy all models.”.

Has anyone sold their leases Model 3 to a dealer? [as of 10/28/21 not possible any longer]
Hello, I am currently leasing a 2019 Model 3. After doing some math, I have determined that I’m in a decent position to sell the car and purchase one instead, given the residual value and value of the car. I know it says in Tesla’s leasing FAQ page that buyouts are not a thing unless a dealer...

You might be able to transfer it to someone else, but tesla is not allowing buyouts (even third party ones) right now. (see the last few pages of the above thread).
TL ; DR - No, you cant sell your lease of model 3 or Y to a third party dealer (or anyone else) since October 28th of this year. Since there is no buyout option for you as well, you cant buy it and sell it either. You might be able to transfer it but thats it.

There is no such thing as a tesla dealer. Tesla Delivery centers deliver cars to people, and many times are combined with Tesla Service centers which repair teslas.
You can do an early lease turn in to Tesla, sure, but that isnt "selling" it, its doing a early lease turn in, with all the fees associated with that.
