Turboprop Finance

Daher TBM 930 Finance - UK Guide

The TBM 930 (2018–2022) introduced the Garmin G3000 Autothrottle to the TBM family and remains a highly sought-after single-engine turboprop. With strong used prices between £2.5m and £3.2m, the 930 represents excellent value in the TBM lineage. Doulton Bridging Finance arranges finance from lenders who understand its performance and value profile.

TBM 930 Market Values

Good used TBM 930s trade at £2.5m–£3.2m in the UK market. The autothrottle system and G3000 avionics give the 930 a technology edge over the 900 and 910, supporting strong residual values. Low-hours examples with SMART maintenance enrolment attract the highest prices.

Lenders are familiar with the TBM family and typically apply LTV ratios of 75–80% to the 930, depending on age, hours and maintenance status.

TBM 930 vs TBM 960: Finance Considerations

The 930 commands a lower price than the 960 but often attracts broadly similar LTV ratios given its established resale history. Buyers upgrading from a 930 to a 960 can often use the 930 sale proceeds as deposit - we manage the timing of sale and purchase to minimise exposure.

Interest in the TBM series is strong globally, which means lenders are comfortable with the asset class and can often process applications more quickly than for more niche types.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Is the TBM 930 a good aircraft to finance?

Yes. The TBM 930 is a well-understood type with strong residual values and a liquid secondary market. Lender appetite is good and LTV ratios are typically competitive.

What is the difference between TBM 930 and TBM 940 finance?

The 940 introduced active winglets for improved fuel efficiency. Finance terms are broadly similar between the two variants; the 940 may attract a small rate benefit due to its more current specification.

How long can I finance a TBM 930 over?

Terms up to 10 years are available, though most buyers opt for 7–8 years to manage depreciation risk. Aircraft age at end of term is a key factor for lenders.

Can I add the SMART maintenance programme cost to the finance?

Some lenders will include soft costs such as maintenance programme enrolment in the financed amount, up to their LTV ceiling. We identify lenders with appetite for this structure.

What are indicative monthly costs for a TBM 930?

On a £2.9m purchase with 20% deposit and 8-year term at around 6.7%, monthly payments are approximately £30,000–£32,000. Contact us for a personalised illustration based on your specific aircraft and deposit.
