Vref Launches Bizav Residual Value Forecast
Aircraft valuation and appraisal service introduces forward looking value outlook and new analytical charting tools for industry professionals.
If you bought one today and held on to it until 2033, Gulfstream’s newest offering, the G500, will be worth 81 percent of what you paid, according to Vref. If residual value is important to you, wait for the G600, which will lose only 11 percent of its value over that period, Vref said. Photo: David McIntosh

A $57.9 million Gulfstream G600 is predicted to retain 89 percent of its value in 15 years and be worth $51.78 million, while the new Pilatus PC-24 is forecast to retain 88 percent of its $8.9 million purchase price in 2033, fetching $7.82 million.
