The Gulfstream GV market remains relatively balanced entering August, with available inventory holding steady and transaction volume continuing at a consistent pace. There are currently 15 aircraft available for sale, while 17 retail transactions have been recorded over the past six months. Unlike some neighboring Gulfstream markets experiencing larger swings in inventory, the GV has shown relatively little movement in supply since March.
Fleet Size and Availability
There are currently 15 Gulfstream GVs available for sale, representing 8.0% of the fleet.
Inventory began the six-month period at 20 aircraft in February before dropping to 15 in March. Since then, availability has remained within a narrow range, briefly increasing to 17 in April and 16 in May before returning to 15 aircraft in both June and July.
The consistency of available inventory suggests a market where new listings and aircraft leaving the market have remained reasonably well matched.
Market Listings
Current asking prices range from $6.25 million to $11.113 million, while aircraft sold during the past six months ranged from $3.9 million to $10.5 million.
Current listings average 213 days on market, compared with 239 days for aircraft sold during the six-month period. That relatively small difference is notable. Buyers have demonstrated a willingness to transact on aircraft that have spent considerable time on the market, although the wide pricing range reinforces how significantly individual aircraft specifications, maintenance status, and condition can influence value within the GV fleet.
Sales Activity
The GV recorded 17 retail sales over the past six months, including 6 off-market transactions, representing 9.0% of the fleet.
Monthly activity has been relatively consistent, with three sales in February, two in March, three each in April and May, four in June, and two in July. Unlike markets where transaction volume has been concentrated into one or two particularly strong months, the GV has maintained a fairly dependable flow of transactions throughout the period.
Key Takeaways
• 15 aircraft are currently available, representing 8.0% of the fleet.• Inventory has remained essentially stable since March.
• 17 aircraft sold during the past six months, including 6 off-market transactions.
• Monthly sales have ranged from two to four aircraft throughout the period.
• Current listings average 213 DOM versus 239 days for recently sold aircraft.
• The $6.25M to $11.113M asking range remains broad, making aircraft-specific positioning especially important.
Key Insight
The GV market is showing more stability than directional movement. Inventory has settled around 15 aircraft, while consistent transaction activity continues to provide reasonable liquidity for a legacy large-cabin aircraft. With 9.0% of the fleet selling over the past six months compared with 8.0% currently offered for sale, supply and recent demand remain relatively well aligned. For sellers, however, an average market time exceeding 200 days makes proper positioning important from the outset. Well-maintained, appropriately priced aircraft should remain competitive, while aircraft positioned above comparable recent transactions may require significantly more patience.
