It's probably the lawyer in me, but 1. don't give cash, 2. don't give a post dated check...he needs to show some trust in you, and 3. don't trust him not to peddle your offer.  period.  a contract is a contract. The deal is with you or there is no deal.  sorry, but I have seen a 1000 go bad.

I have told the seller already that I have $10K in cash (from the last deal that went south) ready to hand him, and the rest by cheque. I will give him a deposit and signed offer tomorrow after the sea trial. Is 10% a typical deposit? I will probably give him a cheque, post-dated to the date of

Honestly, I would not let the seller peddle your offer to the other buyer.  Tell seller if he accepts your offer you expect to hold him to it.  If he feels he needs to give other buyer a last shot, he should say to him, sign a contract or I am moving on to next in line... Bill Walker On

Hi Shawn, The 35 Mk II is a fantastic boat (I owned one), but purchasing without a survey is quite risky. You seem to understand that, so I won't belabor the point. Dennis is right (usually is), the tabbing of the forward bulkhead can be an issue, but is not particularly difficult or

I'm happy to report that we have agreed on a price, subject to a sea trial and survey. Unfortunately, there are no surveyors able to conduct a survey for 3-4 weeks, so we may consider foregoing that and instead do a very thorough inspection of the boat myself, followed by a haulout inspection in a
