SinglePoint Launches Aging Aircraft Finance Product

OKLAHOMA CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SinglePoint Aircraft Finance (SinglePoint), an AGC Aerospace & Defense company, recently completed a refinancing transaction on a 1977 Cessna ISP to commemorate the launch of its Aging Aircraft Finance program.

“Many banks are reluctant to finance the purchase or even specific life-extending modifications of an older aircraft”

The age of the Cessna Citation proved to be a stumbling block when the Florida client approached its bank for financing.

“Many banks are reluctant to finance the purchase or even specific life-extending modifications of an older aircraft,” said Tim Wilson, President of SinglePoint. “Despite seeing a thaw in what has been tough lending market, aircraft less than 10 years old receive precedent over older aircraft. Although these older assets are perceived by banks as being higher risk credits, SinglePoint recognizes these planes have long useful lives and when properly maintained represent great value to their owners.”

With extensive experience in aircraft maintenance and modifications as well as complex financing expertise, SinglePoint’s team is in a unique position to both value older aircraft and provide workable funding solutions.

“Our expertise in aging aircraft and comfort with the useful life of these assets motivated SinglePoint to launch this product,” added Wilson. “The loan we extended allowed the borrower to perform some deferred aircraft maintenance and return to flying.”

Even as the economy improves SinglePoint continues to field a steady flow of inquiries from both individuals and corporations seeking alternative financing strategies to traditional lending channels.
