GUILFORD, Conn. – October 22, 2019 – Aircraft appraisal services are now available from Guardian Jet, providing jet aircraft owners the means to answer the question: “How much is my jet worth?” The answer is critically necessary in order to sell, insure or properly account for a jet aircraft. The new aircraft appraisal services represent a natural expansion of the Guilford, Connecticut-based firm’s existing aircraft acquisition, sales and consulting services.
Mike Dwyer, Managing Partner of Guardian Jet, describes the rationale for his company’s important new offering: “As the leader in understanding aircraft valuations, it was a very logical extension for us to move into appraisals,” he explains. “Not only do we have at our disposal the internal ‘back office’ expertise required to perform valuations, we have the contacts and clients to gain critical mass relatively quickly. The outcome is of tremendous value to aircraft owners and operators around the world, many of whom struggle to effectively assess their aircraft’s worth.”
Aircraft owners can choose from two types of Guardian Jet Aircraft Appraisals conducted using the nationally recognized Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP):
In both cases, Guardian Jet clients receive an exhaustive summary of their aircraft’s value, including the firm’s industry-leading Guardian Estimate™, a proprietary aircraft pricing valuation based on comparable equipment, along with a recent, six-month assessment of aircraft sales transactions (including information compiled from Guardian Jet’s proprietary Market Survey).
Both the onsite and desktop appraisals also include:
The onsite appraisal goes further, featuring an in-person review of the aircraft’s interior and exterior condition; aircraft photos; cabin layout drawings; and a thorough review of the aircraft’s maintenance logbooks and use of maintenance tracking programs.
Additionally, when clients purchase an Aircraft Appraisal, they receive complimentary access to the Guardian Jet Vault for one year. The Vault enables users to track their jet’s value, and observe their aircraft’s real-time value as it moves move up or down in the market.
