List your Boat!

MJ Kolleda Associates will work with you to:

• Determine a fair asking price - To ensure a timely sale, it is essential to ask a fair price. We can help establish fair-market value for the boat through access to actual sold boat data in national sold boat databases and we will develop an in-depth analysis of competing boats on the market.

• Prepare an advertising strategy - We will outline a plan of how a boat is to be advertised in the most appropriate media. For example, the best means to promote a 32' Chris-Craft is vastly different than the strategy for a 65' Viking. Our objective is to devise a strategy with the best chances of reaching the most interested and qualified audience for your boat.

• Create a listing for the public - We will prepare the listing for distribution in various electronic and print media, for print and email distribution to clients and other brokers, and for distribution to prospects at boat shows, open houses, and walk-in inquiries. We will also develop advertising on the Multiple Listing Service and market your boat to other brokerages and their individual salespeople.

• Prepare the boat - We will advise of any improvements that should be made to compete within today's market, identify possible problems and solutions, and help organize upgrades & repairs. We can even help locate easy-access moorings/storage for the duration of the listing.

• Negotiate with the buyer - We will use our experience and expertise to represent your interests and keep the negotiations moving to a successful conclusion.

• Perform the sea trial and survey - The buyer will usually request a sea trial and the services of a marine surveyor. We will attend and conduct the sea trial and marine survey and help you determine how any discovered deficiencies should be addressed in the purchase negotiations.

• Close the deal! - We understand the principals of the brokerage profession - such as certificates of ownership, security agreements, bills of sale and other documents needed to register and transfer titles to boats. We can navigate maritime and admiralty liens for many types of vessels, as well as mortgaging and transferring title to documented vessels.
