What is a typical charge to have a broker sell your houseboat?
10% of the sales price or higher?

Normal charge 5 to 10 %. What do you want for the boat? Give the broker your bottom net $$$$. and tell him to add his to it. What do you wish to sell? I believe I can move it as I am still selling boats.
