Common Questions
Straight answers, no runaround.
- How does flat-fee boat brokerage work?
- You pay one transparent flat fee at closing instead of a percentage of the sale price. On higher-value boats, that can be tens of thousands of dollars in savings compared to a traditional 10% commission. Call Shane at 850-602-2475 and we'll walk you through the exact numbers for your boat.
- Where do you list and market boats?
- Every listing goes on tmdmarine.com with professional photos, video walkthroughs, and full specs. From there we push it out through YachtWorld, Boat Trader, Boats.com, targeted social, and — most importantly — direct outreach to qualified buyers already in our Alabama Gulf Coast network.
- Do you handle survey, sea trial, and closing?
- Yes. We coordinate the sea trial, recommend qualified marine surveyors, and work with a marine escrow closing agent for title, documentation, and payoff. You get one point of contact from listing to keys handed over.
- Do I have to sign a long-term listing contract?
- No. We don't lock owners into multi-year exclusives. If we're not the right fit, you can walk away — but with the right price and marketing, most of our listings don't stay listed long.
- What areas do you serve?
- TMD Marine is Alabama-based and operates on the Alabama Gulf Coast — Orange Beach, Gulf Shores, Perdido, Mobile, and Baldwin County. We take buyer inquiries from across the country, but the boats and closings are Alabama.
