Get FinancingMake Data-Driven Decisions With Monthly Market Reports
When you need to find real-time valuations for specific pieces of equipment, trucks, and trailers, you can’t beat Sandhills Global’s Value Insight Portal (VIP). But when you need to know more about the broader market for used assets in Sandhills platforms, you can rely on Sandhills’ monthly market reports.
Why Market Reports Matter
The key metric used in these reports is the Sandhills Equipment Value Index (EVI), a measure of trends in asking and auction values. Buyers and sellers can use the information in the Sandhills EVI to monitor equipment markets and maximize returns on acquisitions, liquidations, and related business decisions.
How They Work
Sandhills market reports draw on a vast pool of current and historical equipment sales data from Sandhills’ farm machinery, construction equipment, and truck and trailer platforms. In addition to broad market overviews, Sandhills market reports examine specific aircraft categories such as jets and piston-single aircraft, and machine and vehicle categories such as dozers, excavators, tractors, combines, day cabs, sleeper trucks, and flatbed semi-trailers, among many others.
Asset categories are further broken down into manufacturer, machine age, and other groups to provide an in-depth view of every market. Each report includes a range of charts to show detailed information on inventory trends, pricing data, regional sales information, and more.
How To Access The Reports
The easiest way to sign up to receive market reports is to visit a Sandhills trade site, such as MachineryTrader.com or AuctionTime.com, and click Get Market Reports at the top of the page. You can also open any Sandhills platform app, tap the Menu icon, and select Market Reports. The Market Reports app in the Sandhills Cloud also offers access to recent reports.Key Benefits
