Unlock Specialized Marine Real Estate Expertise
Marinas for sale represent highly specialized assets where waterfront location, operational infrastructure, regulatory compliance, and marine business dynamics converge. Unlike traditional commercial real estate properties, marina valuations depend on slip counts and configurations, fuel dock operations, dry storage capacity, marine service facilities, environmental permits, and the operational expertise required to run successful marine businesses.
SVN® International contains marina specialists who understand marina and marine business real estate as distinct asset classes with specific risk-return characteristics. Our Advisors bring the knowledge, contacts, and strategic marketing resources required to successfully acquire and divest specialty marine properties, including full-service marinas, yacht clubs, boat storage facilities, marine repair operations, and waterfront mixed-use developments incorporating marina components.
Success in marketing marinas for sale requires reaching the right buyer universe — not just traditional real estate investors, but marine industry operators, strategic acquirers seeking market entry or expansion, lifestyle buyers pursuing waterfront businesses, and institutional groups recognizing marinas as alternative investment opportunities. SVN’s Advisors know how to position marine assets for each buyer type, crafting marketing strategies that highlight operational performance, location advantages, expansion potential, and lifestyle appeal.
Our marina team analyzes and underwrites properties based on marine-specific metrics: slip occupancy and rental rates, transient versus seasonal revenue mix, fuel sales and margins, marine service income, dry storage utilization, and the capital improvements that protect and enhance marina values. This operational perspective, combined with SVN’s network of offices in key waterfront markets, ensures marinas for sale receive comprehensive exposure to qualified buyers.
