231 to 252 to encore, what price range?

No, no change that I know of and I watch this market pretty closely.

231's are always available.

There are usually only a couple of 252's for sale at any given time and often none.

Encore's are rare and there is rarely more than one up for sale at any given time. 

This one is worth every penny of the asking price, if you ask me. Although @Bryan could say better. He owns one.

I think this could be a great deal of it all checks out. I’d be curious to know how much it is flying but at least it is in the dry desert of not very much. It has older avionics but still good equipment. I am in AZ this week on business and I might like to check it out myself, Encore to Encore.

Looks like it is no longer on controller.

I talked with the owner at length about this aircraft. Actually had a plane ticket secured about two weeks ago and had to cancel it due to family obligations. It sat a lot over the past decade but the owner keep it in good condition annual wise. This is the second 252 that I’ve gotten serious about with the other in the 95k range. In the end I think the Ovation or Eagle is a better fit for me. 

The owner seamed honest and very nice. A family situation is forcing the sale and he was going to turn it over to a broker soon if it did not sell. I had a offer in mind that I think would have brought home the plane. I hope another MS’er made it happen.
