HEAD OFFICE

SALES
EYB supports yacht transactions in Balearic Islands through a central team and local brokerage assistance, backed by legal, marketing and sales departments.
Your first contact is EYB’s head office. Share the boat’s specifications, present condition, documents and berth in Balearic Islands so the team can understand what is being offered and provide an initial valuation.
The valuation helps frame the asking price and discussion about the sale. If you decide to proceed, EYB and the owner agree the mandate, including the flat 5% commission and the other terms that govern the appointment.
Once signed, the mandate gives the team a clear basis to coordinate marketing, enquiries and offers. The valuation is an initial view based on the details supplied; it is not a promise that a buyer will pay a particular amount.

The boat stays rooted in its own harbour, but its potential buyers may live elsewhere. EYB coordinates the sale from head office and uses local brokerage support in Balearic Islands when a buyer needs location-specific information or wants to inspect the vessel.
The central team connects marketing, legal administration, the seller and interested clients. Local support can help make a visit practical and answer questions about the boat’s immediate setting without taking decisions away from the owner.
This arrangement combines access to buyers across EYB’s Mediterranean network with someone familiar with the relevant area. Enquiries, negotiation and next steps are followed up centrally.
EYB’s legal work is handled by a qualified lawyer, who prepares both the mandate and the sale contract. Registration and related administration for the transaction are also part of this role.
At appointment, the mandate sets out the terms agreed between the owner and EYB. It provides the written reference for the commission, the sale instruction and other agreed conditions. The owner has an opportunity to read it before the marketing campaign starts.
When a buyer and seller agree a transaction involving a boat in Balearic Islands, the lawyer prepares the contract around those agreed terms and handles the relevant administrative requirements. The documents are tied to the specific sale and vessel.
EYB promotes each boat with a mix of search optimisation, social media and relevant national and international sales platforms. The marketing department selects channels that suit the boat and the audience it may attract.
The listing content should describe the vessel plainly and accurately, including its equipment, history, condition and current berth in Balearic Islands. Good photographs and complete specifications give buyers a stronger basis for deciding whether to enquire.
The marketing and sales teams work together. If details change, or a buyer needs further information, the listing and follow-up can be coordinated so that the boat is represented consistently.
Buyer contact is managed by EYB’s sales team. Team members respond to enquiries, follow up interest, arrange appointments and help the parties negotiate, using the languages relevant to the client.
For a vessel in Balearic Islands, the sales team works with the owner and local support to answer location-specific questions and organise viewings. This helps a prospective buyer move from reading the listing to seeing the boat, subject to access and availability.
Offers and conditions are discussed with the seller. The team supports communication and keeps track of next steps, while the decision to accept an offer remains with the owner.
The Spanish rules cited here govern boat registration and transfer rather than a dedicated licence for yacht sales brokers. A sale in Balearic Islands still requires the owner-change notification required for the boat’s record. The applicable record depends on the vessel and its registration route: some CE-marked craft of up to 12 metres may use a special registration regime, while others follow the general flagging process. Spanish Maritime Administration, ownership and registration procedures
After completion, the seller has up to three months to report the new ownership, while notification by the buyer is optional. Evidence supporting the transfer accompanies the request. A buyer should compare the hull identification and registration particulars in the transfer evidence with the boat and its current certificate. For a boat kept in EU customs territory, Union-goods status normally continues; preserve its original invoice and any import records relevant to VAT.

For Balearic Islands, EYB arranges brokerage support in line with these requirements; its qualified lawyer prepares the sale contract and manages registration. Check the seller’s authority to transfer the boat and keep the signed contract and registry evidence. European Commission, guidance on VAT and customs for pleasure craft
If you are looking for a boat in Balearic Islands, tell EYB the type of boat, your budget and the stretch of coast you prefer. The sales team replies in the relevant languages and puts you in touch with the right local support.
Viewings are arranged around the owner’s availability and the boat’s access arrangements in Balearic Islands. EYB coordinates with the buyer and local contact. If the parties wish to proceed with a survey or sea trial, they agree its scope, timing and conditions before it takes place.
When you make an offer, EYB passes it to the owner and helps both sides agree the price and conditions. The lawyer then prepares the sale contract, and the purchase moves to deposit and completion, set out below.
Once the buyer and seller accept the terms, a 10% deposit is placed in escrow under the transaction arrangements. The written contract sets out who holds it and which agreed conditions must be fulfilled before release.
The rest of the price is paid straight to the seller after all conditions have been met. EYB helps coordinate the process, but the signed sale documents define the parties’ obligations and payment steps.
