You trust the NAAA to provide reliable aircraft appraisals so why not use an NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent to help you find and buy the aircraft you want? In the past, aircraft buyers had a choice between developing their own aircraft purchase process that may or may not produce desired results or using conventional methods (brokers and dealers). Now there is a third option -the NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent. The NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent is a trained professional who helps aircraft buyers avoid mistakes and errors through a proven process that produces results. The NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent represents the buyer AND ONLY THE BUYER throughout all phases of the purchase process and ensures that the right aircraft is purchased at the right price. The NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent uses a more fair and ethical approach to purchasing aircraft compared to traditional methods. Other companies and individuals may call themselves "buyer's agents" but they are really brokers or dealers and their fees tend to be based on the selling price of the aircraft. Other "agents" may not be adhering to any standards or ethics or they may be representing the selling party. Only NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agents have undergone the necessary training and have the experience to properly represent their clients and only NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agents adhere to a published set of standards and ethics which are policed by the NAAA Ethics Board. Furthermore, only NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agents have the resources of the NAAA behind them and base their fees on the type of aircraft under consideration and not its selling price. Read on to understand the difference an NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent can make when purchasing your first or next aircraft !
Is an NAAA Qualified Aircraft Buyer's Agent right for you? When choosing someone to help you find your first or next aircraft, you need to understand several key characteristics about the person or company who will be assisting you.
If the answer you get is "NO" to any of these, then maybe an NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent is right for you if you are serious about purchasing your aircraft. Don't just purchase a service that may help you buy your next aircraft, purchase a solution that will help you buy your next aircraft.
Is this your first aircraft purchase? If this is your first aircraft purchase, you probably have many questions but the one question you really need to ask is - Can you afford to make a mistake? A bad purchase decision can be costly up front because you paid too much for the aircraft to begin with, it can be costly from an ongoing maintenance perspective and a bad purchase decision can also cost you when you get ready to sell the aircraft. You certainly can find a good aircraft yourself but you will need to determine the best process to use through research, trial and error. It is likely that you will visit many aircraft to find that they are not "as advertised" and those "deals" were not really deals at all. When looking at an aircraft, do you know the difference between a good one and a bad one? Once you find the right aircraft your next challenge will be to negotiate the deal and pull the necessary paperwork together to transfer ownership. Will you be up to the challenge? How will you determine what price to offer? How will you be sure your needs are addressed in the Purchase Agreement? Can you complete this entire process in a timely fashion? If you need financing, are you sure that your bank will not introduce pitfalls that will kill the deal? You could use a reputable A&P/IA mechanic (and this is part of the purchase process to be sure) but are these individuals in a position to evaluate, negotiate and consummate the deal? It may make more sense to take advantage of an experienced, trained professional who is on your side working in your interests. An NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent is not a broker or dealer since they do not represent or "push" specific aircraft and their compensation is not based on the price of the aircraft. A Qualified Buyer's Agent can help you understand what aircraft meets your needs, your budget and identify which aircraft represent a true opportunity. Plane Data, Inc. is an NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent and works with our clients to help them understand up front what they can expect to spend, what process will be used and we only present aircraft to our clients that meet their needs and their budget. As a Qualified Buyer's Agent, we negotiate the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement with the seller and work with the bank to ensure there are no issues when the deal closes. See what our clients have to say when they used the Buyer's Agent service. We charge a flat fee based on the type of aircraft (single engine piston, piston twin, turbo prop, business jet, etc.) under consideration.
Experienced at buying aircraft? If this is not your first aircraft, you probably have a good idea of the problems that can arise from this type of transaction and a good idea of the process that will be used. The question is - Do you have the time and the resources to find a good aircraft in a cost effective manner? Even if this is not your first aircraft, do you know which aircraft represent true deals and which ones are likely to conclude successfully? Can you afford to make a mistake? Plane Data, Inc. will avoid wasting your time and money by presenting candidate aircraft that meet your needs and your budget. Even if you have someone in your corporation designated to find the right aircraft, we can work with this individual or department as an outside consultant and help guide them through the process.
It doesn't matter if this is your first, fifth or tenth aircraft purchase. An NAAA Qualified Buyer's Agent can help you. While every deal is different, companies and individuals who use this service find that the service pays for itself by saving them time and money through the avoidance of travel to see aircraft that don't measure up, negotiating the best price (sometimes below market value) and from making a mistake by purchasing the wrong aircraft. Plane Data, Inc. can help you find the aircraft you are really searching for and we take the confusion out of the process! Call, email or request a quote for additional information.
