Ownership Analysis
The TBM 700B, produced from about 1999 to 2003, is an evolution of the original TBM 700 pressurized single-engine turboprop, powered by the Pratt & Whitney PT6A-64 (700 shp) and incorporating a larger cargo door and cabin refinements over the 700A.
With production long ended, value depends heavily on engine time, program status, and avionics upgrades, since many examples have been retrofitted with modern glass. Pressurization system condition is another key variable.
Lenders weigh engine status and airframe history more heavily than on newer TBMs, though the brand’s resale strength and Daher support keep collateral confidence reasonable. Loan terms fall under the Turboprop & Jet tier.
