After 10 years of owning our Carver, the Admiral says it is time to upgrade and I have always liked the SR 400 Sedan Bridge so we are starting our research. I see a big range in asking prices and need to know if anyone can give me a source for what the current market is for a 2000-2003 Diesel 400 Sedan Bridge.
Asking price vs sale price? I know every seller's situation is different, so I doubt this is an easy question to answer, but it seems to me that some brokers promise their sellers big numbers and the boats sit on the market for long periods of time.
When we find a suitable boat, I don't want to insult the seller by making a low ball offer, but I don't want to leave money on the table either. Is 10%, 15% or 20% below asking price a reasonable first offer?
Any thoughts or input would be appreciated as I have been out of the market for quite a while.
Thanks in advance!
