Which yacht broker do you need at Igoumenitsa?
When you are selling, you need a broker who works for you: someone to value, list and advertise the yacht and bring you offers. When you are buying, you need a broker on your side of the table: someone to search the market, compare boats and negotiate. Prefer a single point of contact for everything? A full-service broker can handle the whole transaction and, if it is agreed in writing, act for both parties. We offer all three at Igoumenitsa.
Whether you are listing a yacht or looking for one, you deal with brokers who know the process from the first enquiry to the transfer of funds. Our Athens head office connects you with a local broker for Epirus; the valuation is free, the commission is just 5%, and your yacht reaches buyers on over 20 platforms across Europe. Say what you need and we will say how we can help at Igoumenitsa.
Selling a yacht kept at Igoumenitsa? Our seller’s broker takes the work off you: a valuation at no charge, photographs and particulars, advertising on over 20 international platforms, the enquiries and the viewings. The agreement says what is included, how long it lasts and what commission is payable (just 5%), so there are no surprises.
The owner appoints a seller’s listing broker to take the yacht to market and find a buyer. Typical help includes agreeing an asking price, gathering the specifications and photographs, preparing the listing, advertising the yacht, answering enquiries and arranging viewings. The listing agreement should state whether the appointment is exclusive or open, its duration, the commission payable and the services the broker has agreed to provide.
A limited service exists for sellers who need only a listing and marketing arrangement. Here the broker advertises the yacht and passes an offer to the owner, while negotiation and the rest of the transaction stay outside the broker’s responsibility. It is a legitimate, defined service, though not a description of every seller’s broker. Many guides include post-offer work: Horizon Yachts International sets out the deposit, survey and sea-trial stages, and YachtWorld says a broker may arrange the survey and sea trial.
Be clear, before signing, about what the broker takes on. Negotiating price and conditions, preparing or explaining paperwork, tracking deadlines and contingencies, arranging survey and sea-trial access, coordinating closing, payment and transfer documents: each is either included or it is not, and any that are excluded may call for separate professional help.
The listing broker acts for the seller. If you are a buyer contacting that broker directly, ask whom the broker represents and whether you should have your own representative. Another broker can bring a buyer through a co-brokerage arrangement, in which firms may share commission under their agreement, and the seller should check what that means for fee and service in their contract. This is why the profile is best read as a seller’s listing broker with limited scope rather than a definition of yacht brokerage. It holds equally at Igoumenitsa.

As your buyer’s broker at Igoumenitsa, we represent you rather than the seller. That means a dedicated representative across a wider search, including boats listed by other brokerages, with help preparing offers, coordinating inspections and keeping every step in writing.
The purchaser appoints a buyer’s broker to represent them in finding and buying a yacht. The search usually starts with a conversation about the buyer’s plans: the type and size of yacht, the budget, the location and the priorities. From there the broker can research the market, identify candidate boats, collect information from listing brokers, review the records available and help the buyer compare the options. Some buyer brokers also preview yachts or arrange remote viewings, letting the client narrow the choice before travelling.
With a yacht identified, the broker can prepare and negotiate the offer with the buyer, explain the transaction’s steps and deadlines and work with the seller’s listing broker. The process may bring a purchase agreement, deposit and escrow arrangements, an independent marine survey, specialist inspections, a sea trial and more discussions afterwards. The broker can coordinate those steps and keep communication moving. The independent technical inspection is the surveyor’s work, and the broker does not replace it.
Buyer services at yacht brokerages typically take in research, negotiation, survey coordination, sea-trial arrangements and assistance with closing documents. Examples: Curtis Stokes & Associates helps buyers research and preview yachts, prepare offers, negotiate and find surveyors and documentation support, and HMY coordinates the survey and sea-trial stages, post-survey discussions and closing. The service on offer varies, which is why the buyer should ask what the broker handles and what is left to the buyer.
Fees differ. The buyer’s broker may receive an agreed share of the commission through a cooperating listing broker, or the buyer may owe a fee under a separate representation agreement, so establish the fee, duration, scope of authority and any exclusivity in writing before the search begins. In return the buyer has a dedicated representative across a wider search, whichever brokerage lists the chosen yacht. Anyone considering a yacht near Igoumenitsa should ask these questions before appointing a broker.

At Igoumenitsa, European Yacht Brokers can act as a full-service broker: one team that looks after the sale from the first conversation to the transfer of funds. Where you want us to represent both buyer and seller, the arrangement is set out in writing for both parties.
Full service describes a broker who can look after the whole sale. After the first conversation with the owner the work may include assessing the yacht and asking price, photographs and particulars, advertising, enquiries, viewings and the communication of offers, then helping both parties move an accepted offer through the contract, deposit, survey, sea trial and closing. The broker may also coordinate documentation, escrow, delivery and other details. Set the precise service out in the listing and sale documents.
Here the broker also works directly with the buyer and acts for both sides. The Yacht Brokers Association of America calls this dual agency: a single broker representing both parties in one transaction. Do not confuse it with a listing broker who assists a buyer but is still appointed by the seller. A buyer should have the broker explain the relationship before an offer is made.
A broker for both sides faces two sets of interests. Sellers generally want the strongest price and terms; buyers want a suitable yacht at a fair price and need to make informed decisions on its condition. Private negotiation for each side, as two independent representatives would do, is not possible for one broker. The YBAA discussion therefore stresses transparency about the arrangement and careful handling of confidential information, and the parties should rely on the written agreement and applicable local advice, since the legal rules and permitted arrangements vary by jurisdiction.
Payment arrangements vary, though the seller’s listing agreement often addresses the commission. The buyer should check whether they owe any separate fee. Two terms are easily confused: full-service describes the range of work, and dual agency describes whom the broker represents. A broker can give extensive transaction support while representing only one side.
European Yacht Brokers runs its Greek operations from its Athens head office, with brokers serving coastal regions and many marinas throughout Greece. Your first contact is with the Athens team, who connect you with the broker responsible for your area. Our regional network means we can arrange for a broker to reach any Greek marina in less than sixty minutes, and the local broker can arrange a visit to your boat and provide a valuation at no charge.
Whichever Greek coast your boat lies on, there is a European Yacht Brokers delegate or agent in the region: Attica, Central Greece, Central Macedonia, Crete, Eastern Macedonia and Thrace, Epirus, the Ionian Islands, the North Aegean, the Peloponnese, the South Aegean, Thessaly or Western Greece. For Igoumenitsa in Epirus, that means the broker for Epirus, who can meet customers and see their boats quickly, with Athens coordinating.
To begin a valuation, download our Sales Mandate and Evaluation Sheet. Using the boat’s details and condition we study the market and prepare a precise, evidence-based valuation informed by the sales data available to us for boats worldwide over the past three years. A valuation is an assessment of likely market value, rather than a guarantee of the eventual sale price.
Once you appoint us, your regional broker manages the work of finding a buyer or helping you find the right boat, and guides you through the transaction to completion and the successful transfer of funds. We advertise boats across over 20 platforms throughout Europe, giving them visibility beyond the Greek market, and reaching international buyers can often help secure a stronger price than relying on local demand alone. Our brokers speak six languages between them, so we can connect you with someone who speaks yours.
A boat berthed at Igoumenitsa is a boat in Epirus, Epirus, and its surroundings are part of the sale. Buyers want to know what the marina offers, what the town is like and what there is to do nearby, so we set out what is known about the marina and the area.
Igoumenitsa is a port town in the Epirus region of northwest Greece, known primarily as a modern port city. Its expansion was notably rapid after it became the capital of Thesprotia, coinciding with the development of major ferry connections to Italy and Corfu. The town serves as a practical gateway to Epirus and the North Ionian, with nearby coastal villages and beaches commonly visited for leisure excursions. This setting reflects a balance between contemporary maritime activity and access to the area’s surrounding natural and cultural sites.
The town and port offer a range of shops and services including fuel, water, food, pharmacies, ATMs, repairs, and international ferry operations. While yacht berthing is available, it remains of secondary importance to commercial shipping. Principal attractions in and around Igoumenitsa include the Archaeological Museum, Drepano beach, and the ancient site of Gitana. Excursions to Syvota and the Kalamas delta are also among the notable leisure activities in the area, reflecting the variety of local interests in the Epirus region.
Looking for a boat near Igoumenitsa? Listings appear in the European Yacht Brokers archive once a local broker has added and verified them, and the broker for Epirus can search more widely for you. Selling instead? Your boat can be shown to buyers looking in this area and in neighbouring ports.
Igoumenitsa Bay is naturally sheltered, although the main harbour is influenced by ferries, commercial shipping, and port-control requirements. The marina functions as a logistical staging point for the Epirus coast, Corfu, Paxos, and nearby marinas including Plataria and Syvota. Boats from Igoumenitsa can cruise to Corfu, Syvota, Paxos, Albania, and the southern Ionian islands. The season extends across the months typically associated with yachting in this region.
A visit to Igoumenitsa can be arranged quickly by the broker for Epirus: they can see your boat, give a free valuation and explain how selling or buying here works with European Yacht Brokers.
Reviews from European Yacht Brokers clients, as published on Google (5.0, European Yacht Brokers) and on our client pages.
The listing broker represents the seller. A buyer who contacts that broker should ask whom the broker represents and whether to have separate representation.
Some brokers acting for buyers preview yachts or arrange remote viewings so the client can narrow the choice before travelling. Ask what service is included.
Full-service is about the range of work, while dual agency describes whom the broker represents. A broker can offer extensive transaction support without representing both sides.
Your first conversation is with the Athens team, who connect you with the broker responsible for your area.
Termination is possible at any time. If a buyer we introduced during the mandate buys the boat later, we are still entitled to our commission.
