I have decided to sell my 1999 310 Sundancer. I am what the brokers refer to as a “motivated seller”. I am trying to decide between the following three kinds of brokers:
Marine Max dealer brokerage 25 miles away
Broker A – small size local operation with business contacts in South America
Broker B – medium size local export brokerage with contacts in Europe and Australia
All three brokers say that they list on multiple domestic and foreign web sites. They all say that foreign sales are pretty good these days due to the weak dollar, and that the summer buying season is ramping up in southern countries. They all want 10% commission and 180 days exclusive listing. They all will handle the paperwork and closing. The difference with Marine Max is that, since they are so far away, they will need to have a local cooperating broker do the showing.
Any ideas on the best one to pick or keep shopping?
Thanks
