Question: Should I choose a fixed-rate or an adjustable-rate when financing my Cirrus SR 22?
Answer: The answer really depends on how long you intend to keep the loan. If your intention is to have the aircraft financed for a long-term, a fixed rate option would be best. If you expect to only need financing for 3-5 years, an adjustable rate structure would provide some interest savings since they typically offer lower rates than standard fixed rate structures. Call us to discuss aircraft financing. We work with over a dozen different lenders and will make sure to match you with the lender that meets your individual needs.
Question: What is typically included in closing costs and how much should I expect them to be? Currently, I’m looking to finance a Cessna 182 and want to determine total costs of financing.
Answer: Closing costs are the real costs incurred by the lender to document the loan. These typically include fees associated with preparing and mailing the loan documents, credit/background checks, and, in some cases, title and escrow. Most of our lenders’ closing costs run between $500-$800 for a C182. If the lender does not offer in-house title and escrow, this would be additional fees. Title and escrow generally cost $600-$700 and is often split between the buyer and seller.
Closing can become complicated if you don’t know what to expect.
