Buyer’s Representation

Guidance

An experienced broker can help you narrow your search by discussing your needs, wants, and ultimate goal. Once these are established, we begin looking for the right boat together.

Value

How do you know what you should pay for a boat? As industry professionals, we have access to a database of what almost any kind of boat has sold for. This, alongside the condition of the boat, is the best measure of the boat’s current market value. This allows us to advise clients when the time has come to negotiate a sales price.

Sea Trial And Survey

A broker acting as a buyer’s representative attends the survey and sea trial either alongside the buyer or in their stead. Post-survey, your broker can make recommendations based on the survey report.

The Search

Sifting through thousands of listings can be overwhelming. A buyer’s representative does the leg work for you by keeping an eye out for boats that might be a good fit. As we receive feedback from you, it becomes easier to find the perfect boat.

Negotiations

When it is time to make a formal offer, a buyer’s agent acts as your representative throughout negotiations regarding sales price and terms. Assistance in this phase of the purchase is one of the greatest advantages of a buyer’s representative.

Closing

Movement of closing funds, insurance, proper documentation, and taking possession of a boat are a few aspects of closing your buyer’s representative can assist with. Each sale is different regarding registration and logistics, and we’ve got the experience to help.
