Latest Five StarTestimonial – Sold Jeanneau DS45
I would thoroughly recommend Williams and Smithells brokerage service for anyone selling their boat. I have just sold my Jeanneau SO 45DS through Williams and Smithells in Greece.
My first knowledge of the company was through a recommendation of a friend also selling his boat in an adjacent boat yard.
I contacted Stephen (the British agent in Greece) by phone and he was prompt to reply and visit me on the yacht just before the end of the season. He is s great guy and very knowledgeable and experienced about the boat sale progress. He took plenty of time to explain to me the process, and amazingly the cheapest way to sell the boat. He advised me about the best way to prepare the boat for sale and talked me through the strengths of my boat and confirmed that It was a good boat for its age and should sell quickly. He also took the time to search the internet for average prices and informed me of a suitable price to sell at. This was above what I had expected.
Once in the process the UK team consolidated all the information and pictures that I and Stephen had taken and produced an excellent advert or two online. Once a serious buyer had been shown around the boat by Stephen, the process was quick and easy with excellent communication by email, phone, txt and WhatsApp. With my boat ashore in Greece and me in the UK for the winter, it was a hugely international exercise completed with ease and swiftness. Within no time the money was collected, stored and transferred to me with all legalities and security checks in between.
I can’t thank the team enough for the prompt sale and their communication throughout. I would thoroughly recommend Williams and Smithells brokerage service for anyone selling their boat. Dave G (UK)
