Fleet Size and Availability
There are 7 Citation Encore+ aircraft for sale, including 2 off-market, representing 10.9% of the fleet. While inventory has declined modestly, relative availability remains elevated for this legacy Citation.
Market Listings
Asking prices reange from $3,900,000 to $4,500,000, with an elevated 386 average Days on Market. Persistent overpricing remains the primary driver of extended marketing times.
Sales Activity
3 sales, all on-market, closed in the last six months between approximately $3,250,000 and $4,200,000, averaging 159 Days on Market. The quick turnover for sold aircraft demonstrates the pent-up demand when the right aircraft appears at the right price.
Key Takeaways
• Price discipline is essential in a selective demand environment.
• The quick conversion of sold aircraft underscores sensitivity to spec, pedigree, and asking price.
• Listings with excessive Days on Market are often an indicator of pricing misalignment, not lack of demand.
• Engine programs, airframe times, and engine overhaul status remain decisive factors.
• Off-market activity is present, but not a major driver currently.
Key Insight
The Citation Encore+ remains a right-aircraft, right-price market. Realistic asking prices unlock fast execution, while premium asks without the corresponding specification or pedigree tend to stall.
