Hangar rent

$300 is just about the going rate in NJ.

I'm in NJ at N14. There's a waiting list here too. The owner has a zoning
approval for 30 more hangars, but he refuses to build them. He is afraid
that it will devalue the existing hangars.

I don't get it. I'd rather have 30 more hangars taking in 350/mo. with
planes in them buying fuel, food, oil and supplies than the status quo
paying 50.00 more per month.

As someone else said $300 is about the going price in NJ... I'm
up at 47N... One of my hangars is an end unit in an open hangar...
Previous tenent put in some recycled paving material so it is a little
better than a dirt floor.. Leaks like crazy... Worse since the hurricane...
Manual doors... Mine have been worked on and work fairly well... $300...
Other hangar is a good T with block walls and full floor... Only minor leaks
and great manual doors... $300...

paying for their hangars and what is provided?

Mine is a T-hanger with a dirt floor, free electric and manual doors that
are a bear to open and close. The hangar is damp of course, but not too
bad.

When we first secured it the rent was 240.00 and no lease. A few months
later it went up to 280.00 and no lease. Just last month we got our fuel
bill and the hangar rent went up again to 300.00 and the owner refuses to
give us a lease.

That's a 60.00/mo. increase in less than a year. The rumor has it that
the
owner is going to keep raising the rent until people start moving out and
there are a few empty hangars. At that point he feels they will be priced
properly.

My question is: at what price would you walk out of a dirt floor T-hangar
with free electric and stiff manual doors? There are no other local
airports with similar hangars that are empty. A tie-down goes for
65.00/mo.

You'll hate it when I tell you that the City just jacked our hangar rent
10%...to $121.00 per month.

That's a partial concrete (directly under the plane) floor, with pea gravel
everywhere else (which we've covered with astroturf), and a manual door.
We've got a window, the only one in the row, cuz we're on the end cap --
which gives us 33% more space than a "regular" T-hangar.

Electricity is "all you can use" (no one has ever blown a fuse yet), and
we've installed a little kitchenette (with fridge, freezer, microwave, and,
of course, blender), porta-potty, and dining area. Two couches, shelves and
a workbench round it out.

The only downside? The taxiway is breaking up, and there's no money in the
city budget to fix it.

T-hangar, crumbling concrete floor, electric bi-fold door. I pay the
guy with the lease $135/mo to keep my plane there. He keeps his
various odds and ends where the plane isn't. The entire rent is
around $270. 2v2, Longmont, CO. 10 miles NE of Boulder.

Depends on what the alternative is. If the only practical one
available is outside tiedown, they'd really have me by the short hairs
and could command a pretty high premium. Not sure what the dollar
figure would be that would cause me to bail. Guess I don't want to
contemplate it.

At Caldwell Idaho near Boise, $170 a month for a clean T hangar with
concrete floor, electricity, electric folding door, no heat. Tie down
charges seem to be waived once you're one of the regulars.

At least you guys get to rent a hanger or have the chance to rent one in the
future. Here in El Dorado AR ELD you have the option of paying $100+/month
for a spot in a big hanger or paying $365/yr and building your own. Which
in the long run is a better deal BUT is tough when you are trying to build
and pay for the airplane in the first place.
