WWW.DEVALK.NL - Reach a million buyers
A PERSONAL NOTE
We continuously invest in online publicity to make sure that your yacht is viewed by as many potential buyers as possible. As a consequence, the number of people who visit www.devalk.nl has risen by 300% over the past six years. The figures show that De Valk attracts far more visitors than other comparable market players.
The buying and selling of a yacht is as much an emotional decision as it is financial. Your boat is a very personal possession, a home on the water, a refuge from the stress of everyday life onshore. How do we know this? Because the people that work at De Valk share your love of sailing.
This is why all our services are geared to ensuring you enjoy your hobby to the max. We mediate between buyers and sellers to strike a deal. We have built up a great deal of experience through the sale of thousands of yachts, and everyone at De Valk believes in complete transparency, security and reliability.
Read on to discover how we can reach over a million potential buyers for your yacht.
