If you cruise through the airplane listings only looking at purchase price, I think you are doing your search a bit of a disservice. While you should definitely have a target price in mind, simply sorting by the purchase price and only looking at airplanes within that price is going to also present you with a bunch of airplanes you actually don't want (even though the purchase price looks appealing). There are a couple more things to consider in the process that I want to briefly cover in this video.
I hope it serves you in your aviation journey!
