Appraisal Services: Bankers and Lenders

Fite Aircraft Valuation Group provides independent aircraft appraisal and consulting services to banks, credit unions, aviation finance companies, and other lending institutions. Our services are designed to support sound lending decisions through objective aircraft valuation and collateral analysis. Although we primarily serve Salt Lake City, UT, we can easily dispatch to the western United States, and nationwide when needed.

Whether financing a single aircraft acquisition or managing an existing aviation lending portfolio, financial institutions require accurate and defensible valuation information to assess risk and monitor collateral value.

Designed specifically for financial institutions, leasing companies, and asset-based lenders, our professional aircraft valuation and appraisal service provides the rigorous, data-driven analysis required to mitigate risk and secure financing.

We deliver certified USPAP compliant appraisal reports that satisfy strict underwriting and regulatory requirements.

Services Available:

  • Collateral Valuation: Accurate current market value (MV) and liquidation value (OLV/FLV) assessments.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Appraisals aligned with USPAP guidelines and industry-standard methodology.

  • Asset Risk Analysis: Detailed review of logbooks, maintenance history, airframe/engine times, and damage history.

  • Market Trend Insights: Evaluation of current market liquidity and micro/macro trends affecting the specific aircraft make and model.

Ensure your loan-to-value (LTV) ratios are built on accurate, objective, and defensible data.

Every Appraisal Includes: A physical inspection of the aircraft, aircraft logbooks, and all available maintenance records. We also obtain FAA records for modifications and research all damage history. The final report is transmitted as a USPAP-compliant PDF report.
