How to save $1,000's on a used boat...

Our Buyer's Broker program...
You wouldn't ask your adversaries Attorney to represent your interest in a law suit, why have the Seller's broker represent you when you buy your Brokerage boat? Here's information you must know!

 The BYA, Buyer's Broker Program…

What if I could show you a program that would save you $100’s or $1,000’s of dollars when you acquire your next boat? That would shorten up the time to find just the right boat and provide you the inside information that Brokers normally only share with each other? What if you had all of the information and resources that a professional broker has when he goes to get a boat for himself? Would that be worth something to you? Would you be willing to pay $100’s to save $1,000’s?

Well the cost of this program is not hundreds, it’s only… But wait.. Imagine your Doctor saying, "I guarantee you that after this treatment you will be cancer free for life!" Your Attorney saying, "I absolutely guarantee that we’ll win this case or there will be no fee and I will give you the full amount of what you would have gotten from the settlement out of my own pocket?

Sounds unlikely at best doesn’t it? Yet, that’s exactly what our program offers. The information and resources that will allow you to save $100’s or $1,000’s of dollars. Get information fast—electronically. Tap into the two largest data bases in the used boat market—BYA’s and YACHTWORLD’s. Use an agreement designed for you, the buyer—not the seller. And, by the way. The cost? It’s free. Unlike the Doctor and Lawyer and Indian Chief, we only get paid (by the seller) for results. As if all of that wasn’t enough, we guarantee your satisfaction—see the guarantee enclosed! This is a no BS offer. You can’t afford to talk to anyone else until you’ve talked to us if you want to get the best possible deal. We guarantee it!

Are you ready to go find your boat?

Appoint us as your buyer's broker and get the best, guaranteed results in the industry.

1. Introduction

A funny thing about this business…

When you see ads, or see boats on the internet or at a boat yard, in most cases all of the brokers have the same listings through the YachtWorld  computer data base. Used boats are a commodity. Any broker can sell them to you so the difference is in the services offered and in who the broker is representing.

Like with Real Estate, what many buyers don’t realize is that brokers represent the sellers. If you call a broker who is listing a boat, or stop in to see a boat because you see a sign there’s a 90% chance you will end up working with the broker who is representing the seller—not you! Imagine. It’s a bit like asking your opponents lawyer to represent your interests in court—and you certainly wouldn’t do that. (Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on your point of view, the laws of agency are not uniformly enforced by any overseer in the boat brokerage industry like they are in Real Estate.)

There are so many negotiable and highly adversarial elements involved in today’s boat buying transactions that you need to be counseled as a client, not coaxed as a customer!

  • •Our program guarantees your satisfaction.

  • •Represents your interests exclusively.

  • •Gives you inside information so that you can make an informed decision.

  • •Offers on-going support. Before, during and after the acquisition.

  • •Note, because of the overwhelming demand for our services, we can only concentrate on boats valued at $80,000 or more.

  • •Is risk free and cost free.—Want to know more?

When you sign up… (This is a free service.)

  • •We will send you our financing application, and get you pre-approved for financing. (22 secrets will reveal why this is important)

  • •We will send you the complete 22 secrets brochure.

  • •You will get signed letters of introduction to other brokers.

  • •We will set up a procedure so that we can exchange information electronically, by Fax or by mail. (You will have your own confidential web page for us to provide you complete listings, pictures, and other confidential information.)

  • •We'll provide you with a complete amortization table for your ultimate loan. This will enable you to see exactly what your deduction for the loan interest will be so that you can save up to $100's in taxes each month--you don't have to wait until the end of the year.

  • •You will get guaranteed satisfaction!

So, what do we ask in return?

Actually, we're so confident that you'll be happy to have us working for you all we ask is that you talk to us exclusively about any boat that you're interested in during the time that we work together. In the end, we guarantee that you'll be happy with your new boat, and our professional services. We're the only Broker I know that puts that in writing!

 

Bonus… If you act within 1 week of the date of your letter…

  • •A primer on State Taxes and a discussion of other tax issues.

  • •We'll provide you with a complete amortization table for your ultimate loan. This will enable you to see exactly what your deduction for the loan interest will be so that you can save up to $100's in taxes each month--you don't have to wait until the end of the year.

Whether you ultimately decide to use us or not, you shouldn't go into this venture without the valuable information contained in 22 secrets!
