Both inventory and transactions have ramped back up in the Phenom 100 market. After inventory was cut in half during the first quarter, it has now doubled and we are sitting at 10 aircraft for sale. This represents 3.4% of the active fleet. The increase in inventory has engaged a few more buyers, resulting in transactions picking up as well. Twelve Phenom 100’s sold during the second quarter, matching the busy Q4 of 2021. A few more options have given buyers something to celebrate, but with pricing and demand holding strong, now is still a great time to sell your Phenom 100.
Phenom 300 inventory has risen slightly, and activity has cooled off a bit as we head into the third quarter of 2022. There are now seven aircraft listed for sale, up from just four during the first quarter. This is still historically low, as there were thirty listings during Q2 of 2020! Just 1.4% of the active fleet is listed for sale. The lack of quality options is still affecting activity, with only three sales taking place during the second quarter. Pricing, however, continues to climb. Values rose another five percent in the last quarter, and are now up over 40% from 2020 lows. With strong pricing and a need for quality US based options, now is a great time to sell your Phenom 300.
The lack of inventory in the Legacy 500 market has caused a slowdown in activity. Inventory has remained depleted in this market for two years now. Just three listings for sale, representing 3.4% of the active fleet. Up until the pandemic hit in 2020, inventory levels were consistently over 10 listings. This has caused a slowdown in transactions, with only one retail sale taking place so far this year. After a big pricing surge at the end of 2021, things have leveled off, but values are still up roughly one third over 2020 pricing. With low inventory and pricing holding steady, now would be a great time to sell your Legacy 500.
