Citation Encore+ Market Update – May 2025
Fleet Size and Availability
There are 7 Citation Encore+ aircraft for sale, including 2 off-market listings, representing 10.9% of the active fleet. Inventory has remained steady over the past six months, hovering between 6 and 7 listings.
Market Listings
Asking prices currently range from $4,200,000 to $5,000,000, with an average of 217 days on market. The pricing corridor has tightened compared to previous months, signaling growing seller alignment or market resistance.
Sales Activity
Just 2 aircraft sold in the last six months, including 1 off-market transaction. The sold price range was $4,000,000 to $4,600,000, and the average time on market for sold units was 153 days, shorter than current listing averages.
Key Takeaways
- Sales remain minimal, with only two transactions over the last half-year, both spread out over time.
- Inventory is steady but relatively high as a percentage of the fleet, which could lead to increased competition among sellers.
- Days on market for sold units are lower than current listings, suggesting that better-positioned aircraft can still move efficiently.
- Buyers have ample time to evaluate options in a stable environment.
- Sellers should assess whether list price and positioning align with recent sales trends to improve traction.
Key Insight
The Encore+ market is in a holding pattern, with stable inventory but very light sales activity. Patience will be key for sellers, while buyers can take advantage of increased leverage in a low-turnover environment.
