If you’re selling your yacht: Yacht girl uses modern marketing methods to sell her listings that most other brokers don’t. Virtual tours promoted on YouTube, social media campaigns and promoting the yachts for sale with a community of yacht owners she has built through the Yacht Talk Podcast. Besides, listing them on all the major websites, displaying them on boat shows and promoting them with all the yacht brokers in Florida.

If you’re buying a yacht: Yacht Girl offers a comprehensive First Time Buyer’s Guide that can be useful for experienced buyers as well, where she describes the whole process of buying, along with recommendations and tips to save time and money. Also, the Yacht Talk Podcast offers in-depth information on all subjects related to yachting and prospective buyers can communicate with the Yacht Talk Podcast Facebook community where other yacht owners can share their experiences and advice with them.

No, in fact you can lose money.

First of all, the commission for the sale of a yacht is always the same amount. If there’s no representative for the buyer, then the representative for the seller gets the whole commission. If there are brokers on both sides, it is split between them.

Secondly, Yacht Girl can prevent you from making costly mistakes in choosing the yacht you’re buying, negotiating the price and making sure all the process is done correctly.

Yes.

If you’re buying, I can arrange appointments to look at the yachts that might be a good fit for you and travel to show them to you. I work in collaboration with the selling broker to make all arrangements and travel to be at the survey. Everything else can be done by phone or email.

If you’re selling, you can either keep your yacht where you live or bring it to Ft Lauderdale, which is the biggest market for yachts in the world. If you decide to bring it here, I will arrange docking and any services needed to maintain your yacht. If you decide to keep it where it is, will travel where your yacht is to take notes of all the details, hire a professional photographer and video with drone and then will publish the listing on the most important yacht search websites. Whenever a serious buyer want to look at your yacht, I will go and show it personally. I will also make arrangements and be there for the survey to make sure everything goes well.

If you want to charter a yacht anywhere in the world, I have relations with the best yacht charter companies and will help you find the right yacht for your needs and budget.

Starting at 50′ and the sky is the limit!

Yes, on occasion. You want to make sure the yacht is available when potential buyers want to look at it. Also, you want it to be always empty of personal items and give the buyer the impression that it’s seriously for sale. That said, a family vacation during Christmas or a few weeks in the summer probably won’t harm any deals. Once the yacht is under contract for sale, it can’t be used anymore.

It’s for one year, after which it is automatically renewed and can be cancelled with 3 months notice.
