Car brokers are hired by consumers to be on their side and to work the deal from a car dealer. Most of the time they can save the consumer a significant amount of money.

If you did not disclose the lien to the dealer then you committed fraud! At this point it is a fraudulent deal and everything can be unwound.

Can you get a loan with a satisfied judgment on your credit report?

Depends on the bank, what the loan is for, and on your overall credit score. Wait a few weeks, check your credit rating, and then - carefully, have your mortgage broker or car dealer check your credit for you new purchase. But their search will make a "hit" on your score, so be sure you use a broker that is aware of your full credit history and may not really need to check it; or that the car dealer you are working with is the one you are going to stay with.

At the end of a car lease you pay a certain amount if you decide to buy the car what is this amount called?

Residual. This is the difference between the price of the car and what you have all ready paid. Let's say the car price was 30,000 and you paid 15,000 with the lease. You still have a 15,000 balance so that is what you will pay to keep the car. If you don't the dealer will resell the car for that and a bit more to make the money out of the car. Take the car for a check up to your mechanic before you turn it in so the dealer can not say you have to pay for repairs. I had a dealer try this and he wanted to add several hundred to the cost of the car above what I owed. The week before I had it in and checked out and that was the only way I could prove the dealer was trying to cheat me.
