My main regret at selling our waterfront home is
that we won’t have an excuse for dealing with you.
You have all been efficient, helpful and pleasant and
have made our experience of buying and renting an easy one.

Providing that marketing edge
Your waterside home is a high value asset and consequently you need more than a
local agent or a sale board to realise its true market value when you come to sell or
let. This also applies to your boat, your waterfront business or your mooring.
In short “to be sold, you need to be seen.”
At Waterside our focused marketing mix attracts the right potential buyers for your property. By listing with us you are
making sure that your valuable asset is visible to a targeted market specifically looking for a waterside home.

New homes... working with developers
Our primary role is to compliment the developer’s own
marketing efforts. To bring the developer added value
in this market sector by providing services which any
other way would be expensive or just unavailable.
We save you time and money by offering to:
• Make our coastal network showrooms available for display
• Train our experienced staff in the specifics of your development so they can
professionally sell for you
• Upload full brochures to the Waterside website and other property portals
• Mailshot to our niche market database
• Present your development at prime exhibitions including Boat Shows
• Devise other marketing events with you
• Negotiate trade discounts for advertising in lifestyle publications
• Initiate PR and feature articles in Waterside Life and elsewhere.
At a local level our Network offices are well placed to offer a full Estate Agency service
in respect of local developments and in the past we have represented many national,
regional and local companies.
At a national or international level, Waterside have also represented many UK developments
remote from our office network, as well as developers throughout the Caribbean and
Mediterranean region.
Added value comes from building a bespoke
relationship and marketing solution for individual
developers depending on location and requirement which
compliments rather than repeats their own efforts.

Moorings

our ears from boat buyers or property buyers. The availability of
appropriate moorings can impact on the whole lifestyle
buying process.
Finding the right mooring to suit individual requirements is no simple matter, involving the
choice of suitable location, local boating knowledge, availability, length of contract and
of course budget.
