Using a broker can make all the difference. We take all of the stress and hassle out of trying to get your boat seen by people everywhere. And you don't have to take time out of your day to walk people through and show your boat.
Or if it is purchasing - new or used - that you want to do, that's even easier! You never have to deal with anyone but us. We handle all of the negotiating for you. We'll do whatever we can to get the best deal for you.
It takes many years of experience, hard work and dedication to become; Dealer of The Year. For six years in a row, that's what we have managed to do. All of our staff is here to help you through the entire process. If you're looking to buy right now (which is one of the best times ever to buy), then let us help you make the transition with ease. You can't even imagine the difference it makes to have someone help you through the purchase of a new or used catamaran.
You need someone like me, a professional broker to facilitate negotiations. The art of negotiating is one of the most important benefits of using a broker. I can offer you a network of contacts by making use of broker-to-broker relationships established over my years of experience; yacht multiple listing systems (MLS); and, the best electronic media, some of which is only available to members of the boating industry and The Catamaran Company.
You’ll never receive annoying phone calls or waste hours waiting for people to show up. The only calls you’ll receive will be from me. I’ll be the person who says, "I have to discuss this with my client and get back to you." The element of time and insulation from immediate answers is one of the biggest leverage factors that both parties bring into any negotiation. Further, I can often help to structure a deal in creative ways to reach an agreement that might not have otherwise been possible.
My position as a broker, between the buyer and seller requires substantial ethical responsibilities to ensure that both parties are treated honestly and fairly. Without a professional broker, this ethical standard is left to chance and blind trust between unknown parties.
Being a professional yacht broker, I am exposed to the boat industry all day, every day. I have acquired knowledge in certain segments to be able to address the good and bad points (e.g. quality, value, and performance, to name three key considerations) of many boats. As always, I listen closely to your wants and needs and how they will fit into your lifestyle. If you’ll allow me, together we’ll find the right boat for you at the best value.
Same thing when it comes to selling your boat! You need a professional to guide you through it. Without the proper help, it can be a nightmare.I will help you establish the fair market value of a boat to help you determine a fair asking price or a realistic offer price. There is a bit of an art in pricing a boat. I know comparable boats and where a specific boat fits in the marketplace. If you are a seller working on your own, improper pricing means fewer qualified buyers will be attracted to your boat and it will likely sit on the market piling up expenses without selling. A realistic price is one of the keys to successfully selling a boat. It takes someone in the business to accurately assess all the factors that determine the value of a specific boat (e.g. condition, outfitting, location ect…) and to be familiar with selling prices.
Again, I would facilitate all negotiations for you. I can’t stress it enough-the art of negotiating is one of the most important benefits of using a broker. The element of time and insulation from immediate answers is one of the biggest leverage factors that both parties bring into any negotiation.
Once an offer is accepted, I can ease the process of finalizing a transaction. We have every resource you need at The Catamaran Company.
