Car Financing, Purchasing,
and Leasing
During the hectic relocation process it is easy for necessities to be overlooked. When it comes to transportation, studies show prior to relocating Expats rank car buying at the bottom of the list. After moving to the USA transportation quickly jumps to the top. A car is necessary as 45% of the U.S. population does not have access to public transportation.

Car Rental
If you are moving to the USA on a short-term assignment you may not need to finance purchase or lease a vehicle. Instead you may prefer to rent a vehicle for the duration of your stay. Most locations in the United States will require you to have a vehicle in order to get around as public transportation is rare, unless you are relocating to a metropolitan area.

If you are on a short-term assignment (more than 30-days, but less than a year) finding an apartment or home to rent can be difficult and costly.
