That is the way it's generally done. However, if I were selling a boat
I'd
tell the buyer at the outset that the agreed price is the price
regardless
of what a survey finds. If he doesn't like the survey he can cancel the
contract, but there will be no renegotiation of the price.

In this market, you'll have that boat until it gets sold as part of
your estate.


Nonsense. There are people who don't have the psychological profile of
the
merchant in a Middle Eastern bazaar. Even in this market.


Dave, although I am not as expert as you ,, what you write is totally
not true, at least in the market we find ourselves in today.

I have only been looking for a short time, but every boat I have looked
at,
and the many folks I have asked for help .. have all assured me that
if the seller wants. or has any interest at all in selling his/her boat,
then
the seller must work with the buyer..

I don't know where you live but here in Florida, there are thousands of
boats for sale and very few buyers.


Florida? Your IP number says you posted from Keene, New Hampshire.
