Frequently asked questions

Why use a broker rather than selling or buying privately

Using a broker can provide access to a wider network of qualified buyers and sellers, reducing the time on market. Brokers also handle negotiations and legal considerations, which can be complex and time-consuming when dealing privately.

How the broker helps sell a boat

A broker manages advertising, conducts viewings, and liaises with prospective buyers. They advise on pricing, assist with preparing the vessel for sale, and handle negotiations to facilitate a smoother transaction process.

How the broker helps buy a boat

A broker identifies boats matching specific criteria, arranges viewings, and supports the buyer through negotiations. They provide guidance on paperwork and practical steps involved in completing the purchase.

How a valuation is carried out

Valuations consider the boat’s age, condition, equipment, and recent sales of similar vessels. Market trends and the vessel’s location also influence the estimated market value.

Commission in general terms

Commission rates vary according to the broker and transaction size, typically agreed before engagement. It is usually calculated as a percentage of the final sale price.

Organising viewings

Sea trials

Sea trials can be arranged to assess a boat’s performance. These are generally supervised and conducted under specific conditions to evaluate handling and mechanical systems.

Independent surveys

A survey is recommended to assess the vessel’s condition impartially. Brokers can suggest qualified surveyors but clients may choose their own depending on preferences and requirements.
