Things to Know Before Acquiring a Private Jet

Buying a private jet is a significant financial undertaking, and most individuals require financing to complete the purchase. Here are some common financing options available:

Traditional Loans:

  • Similar to car loans, these offers fixed or variable interest rates with repayment terms ranging from 3 to 12 years, and amortization periods up to 25 years for newer jets and 12 years for older models.
  • Interest rates vary depending on the loan term, aircraft type, and your creditworthiness.
  • Prepayment penalties might apply during the initial years.
  • Consider using a finance broker to find the best loan terms and navigate the process.

Asset-Based Loans:

  • These loans use the jet itself as collateral instead of requiring personal guarantees or extensive financial disclosures.
  • Often used by businesses, they offer non-recourse options, meaning the lender can only repossess the jet if you default, not pursue further compensation.
  • May have shorter terms and higher interest rates compared to traditional loans.

Line of Credit:

  • Provides flexibility by allowing you to draw funds as needed, similar to a credit card.
  • Interest is charged only on the amount used.
  • Requires strong creditworthiness and may have variable interest rates.

Sale-and-Leaseback:

  • You sell the jet to a financial institution and simultaneously lease it back for a specified period, typically with the option to purchase it back at the end of the lease.
  • Provides immediate access to a portion of the aircraft’s value while maintaining use.
  • Can be complex and involve significant fees.
