What is the standard commision earned by a dealer on a large yacht I have heard that 20% is fairly standard, does this ring true? By commisioning a similar custom yacht will I save this or will the savings be taken by design fees etc? I was considering the sunseekers largest model. Thanks Jon
Never heard of a 20% commission on a large yacht. As an independent broker you can have 5% on a new construction where you have to spend a lot of time and travel expenses during construction. On design fees, you are saving more than you pay if you have the right designer...
New build 5 % Used Boats normally 10% ( mostly split between Owners broker and sellers broker ) Sometimes seller fix a net sales price and the broker put his money on top. Make an offer of 70 % of the first asking price and wait
