A private sale can bring more or less than consignment; it depends on the boat, the season and how much work you’re willing to do. What a private sale always costs you is the work: marketing, screening buyers, showings, test drives, accepting payment safely, and the Arizona Game and Fish paperwork.
Consignment at The Boat Brokers has no fees to consign and no commission taken out of your check: we agree on a fair market value together, we handle the marketing, showings, financing coordination and paperwork, and you get a check for the agreed amount within 10 business days after it sells. Units typically sell within 90 days, depending on the unit, its condition and the season. For most sellers the question is whether the extra money a private sale might bring is worth the work.
