A yacht broker, similar to a real estate agent, is someone who works on your behalf during the selling or purchasing process of a luxury vessel, negotiating on your behalf, and ensures the entire transaction is completed smoothly and to your satisfaction. Especially during the sale of a yacht, the right broker can reduce stress and make the transaction effortless for you. It is the one of the essential responsibilities of a yacht broker to provide an exceptional amount of value throughout the experience.
Customized and Professional Attention
Working with a broker means you will enjoy all the benefits of a smooth sale, with no stress of finding buyers, creating listings, or negotiating sales. A Gulfstream Yacht Sales broker will review what you want and need in a yacht, and then you can sit back while they narrow down the search to vessels suited to your need. We will look at vessels before presenting options to you to shield you from scams, unauthentic sellers, and boats that are not as desired.
Marketing and Promotion
Yacht brokers have insight and connection into the boat-buying community. The responsibilities of a yacht broker will include the active marketing and promotion of the vessel you’re selling, or the search through the listings and their personal network to find the vessel that meets all of your needs. They understand the type of marketing and promotion will attract the kind of buyers you need and will strategically plan the advertisement of your boat on your behalf.
The Art of Negotiating
Achieving a sale in a timely manner and at the right price are the goals of every person looking to buy or sell a yacht. When working with a yacht broker you can rest assured you will be making the best offer to ensure a sale. A broker will be able to tell you if the offer you are making is realistic and the best fit for you. They will then make the offer and help you with any unusual terms of the sale.
Paperwork and Laws
When considering the responsibilities of a yacht broker, one cannot underestimate the value of understanding paperwork and laws for a sale. Using a yacht broker makes the paperwork side of selling your boat much simpler than if you were to attempt to complete the sale yourself. For example, 23 forms are needed at a closing of a brokerage boat in Florida (27 for foreign-flagged vessels). As a specialist in the field of boat sales, your yacht broker will know which paperwork will be legally required to complete the sale of your boat.
Responsibilities of a Yacht Broker - A Trusted Resource After the Sale
More than just a resource for your sale, working with a yacht broker will leave you with a trusted support long after the sale is complete. Using a broker is a great way to utilize an expert in the industry in order to sell your boat. Whether it is their connections, knowledge of the industry, or negotiating strategies you are looking for, a broker will make selling your boat an easy process. After all…selling your boat should be exciting!
