Key Takeaways:

The business jet resale market is robust with strong demand expected to remain steady for the next six months, undeterred by rising interest rates.
While Q3 2022 transactions were slightly down year-over-year, IADA dealers have completed more deals year-to-date, and there's a slight increase in aircraft inventory.
The fourth quarter is projected to see strong sales, largely driven by the impending phase-out of the 100% bonus depreciation tax incentive and airline service reductions.
