Selling your boat while living abroad
At BoatshedGreece.com we are dedicated to offering the best service possible to all our clients. One category of customers we often come across is people who live abroad and have their boats in Greece. Selling a boat from abroad can be stressful since it requires time, effort, and a lot of patience. This is where we can make the difference as our approach to selling boats is based on making the whole customer experience as stress-free and hassle-free as possible.
Reducing the distance
Selling a boat from 1000 miles away is not straightforward. However, we minimise the impact of the distance by deploying tools which reduce its impact. For example, there is no need for physical meetings. All our paperwork (e.g. our listing agreement) is available in electronic form and the signing process can be done remotely and paperless. We have developed a system which minimises the need for wet signatures and hence any physical meeting takes place only if our client wishes to have one.
We handle the photography and videos of the boat and save the owner time, effort, and cost. By having access to the boat, we can visit it and organise its photography by one of our local brokers. When a potential buyer wants to visit the boat, we organise every detail of the visit and show the boat. The fact that the viewing is in the presence of the person who has seen the boat, made the listing, and captured its every detail means that we are in the best possible position to present it to the potential buyer and answer all technical and non-technical questions.
Access to information
Information and updates are available pretty much in real-time. Our clients can use their Boatshed.com account and access all the information they need about their boat and the viewings it gets. Our local brokers provide regular updates, on market trends for similar boats, overall availability and even price comparison analysis where available and applicable
Network
Our extended network of local professionals supporting the boating industry allows us to help our clients and potential buyers access invaluable support. Upon request, we offer contact details of local surveyors, marinas, and even transportation companies. We have a strong network of professionals who can navigate our clients and buyers through the boat transfer process in a straightforward manner making sure all local and national requirements are met and the transfer takes place in a timely fashion.
Just a click away
A demonstration of how well our process works is that we often serve customers from abroad is the repeat business we get. The relationship we build with our clients is based on the uncompromised principles of transparency and the values of Boatshed.com.
