Sales & Acquisition Process

Sales & Acquisition Process

Our thorough process for Marketing/Sales & Acquisitions is structured to ensure you have control, but relegate the daily step-by-step details to Private Cabin Jets.  While there are many items and actions within the steps below, these are the general processes.

Selling Your Aircraft

At Private Cabin Jets we will:

  • Provide current Market Research to determine your pricing decision,
  • Advertise with eMail, Internet, and other media,
  • Ensure quality photo coverage of the aircraft,
  • PCJ absorbs all Advertising costs,
  • Make personal daily "needs" calls to other Owners/Pilots,
  • Utilize our extensive personal broker contact network,
  • Filter and qualify all the phone and eMail traffic,
  • Ensure Offers include appropriate terms,
  • Assist in contract Negotiations (and Escrow process),
  • Manage the Escrow process,
  • Manage and guide the Pre-Buy Inspection process,
  • Manage FAA documentation for Sale completion,
  • Manage the Closing process,
  • Ensure privacy and discretion throughout the transaction.

Many steps are involved in each of the above.  As your Broker you’re assured your necessary involvement in the transaction will be as minimal as possible --- yet assuring you the control you deserve.

Acquiring Your Aircraft

As your Broker, Private Cabin Jets has access to more than publicly advertised aircraft.  Through years of personal relationships we have a large network of brokers with clients that do not advertise their aircraft publicly.  These off-market aircraft many times face less pricing-by-demand pressure and can be outstanding values.  The process involves:

  • Aircraft Comparisons (if needed) to help narrow your fleet selection,
  • Fleet Market Overview for availability and pricing,
  • Extensive personal broker contact network for,
    • Off-Market Aircraft at aggressive pricing,
    • Uncovering the best-buy in a specific fleet,
  • Submitting an aggressive Offer on your behalf,
  • Assist in Offer and the eventual Contract negotiations,
  • Manage and guide the Pre-Buy Inspection process,
  • Manage FAA documentation for Sale completion,
  • Manage the Closing process,
  • Ensure privacy and discretion throughout the transaction.

Buyers often cruise the published ads, submitting their own Offers, and try to manage the full acquisition process.  While it can succeed, it’s a process filled with time-consuming intricacies and even hazards.  That's why Aircraft Brokerage is all we do, every day, as our sole focus.  As Owner of Private Cabin Jets, 10 years of brokerage experience provides the smoothest road to Closing.

Trading Up/Down for your Next Aircraft

When sustained travel requirements change you may need to change to a regional, cross-country, or global range aircraft.  As that happens, experience, crisp communication, and a solid network of broker contacts can make this Trade very seamless.  Elements of both the Sale and Acquisition process above are key to making this work as you needed.  In all cases Private Cabin Jets is committed to relieving you of having to micro-manage the processes.  As your Broker, that’s the service we provide you.
