Selling your boat? (Part 1)

Selling your boat? (part 1)

Thinking of selling your boat?  At Jireh Financial, we regularly work with private sellers.  Below is a list of tips that will help you have a smooth transaction and make things easier for your buyer’s lender.

1. Make sure to take clear pictures of the boat, motor and trailer VIN plates.  (Trailers can sometimes be tough, but do your best!) 

Small mistakes can be made when writing VINs down, thus causing headaches for lenders and buyers. Pictures aid in accuracy and efficiency.

2. Have your titles, registrations or any other ownership papers ready. 

It's always easier to locate these ahead of time than rush around under pressure.  Jireh Financial’s title department is able to help with any questions you have about transferring of titles.

3. If you have a lien, get a letter from your lender once your payoff is complete. 

This will ensure a clean title transfer for your buyer and help them have an easy selling process when they’re ready to sell.

Let us know how we can help if you have any questions!
