Site Evaluation, Feasibility Studies & Due Diligence The marina market is changing rapidly. Over the past 5 years alone, the change has been so dramatic in some areas, that many owners have been forced to sell - while others have found the strategies which have propelled them to the top of the game. Understanding these factors is paramount to success in today's marketplace. For the first time in history, marinas are attracting a wide spectrum of investors. Market savvy bankers are no longer placing marina opportunities at the bottom of the barrel along side nite clubs and restaurants. In fact, there are marina properties that are now ranking side by side with Institutional Grade Properties in the competitive TIC Investment market. As any experienced marina operator will tell you - each property is an animal all of its own. That statement is especially true in the sense that there are a plethora of factors and conditions that affect how a marina can operate and what markets it can effectively draw from. Atlantic Marine Management can arm investors and prosepctive owners with the very specialized information and unbiased evaluations that are paramount to making an intelligent investment decision in marine related properties. |
While most Real Estate Appraisers do an excellent job with the underlying real property, improvements and general market conditions ..there are very few who fully understand the complexities and nuances of the marina industry. In addition to the nuances of marina valuation, the dramatic changes in today's marketplace have created a serious challange for marina appraisal. Many marinas are being valuated for conversion to dockominium and these are very high values that due to the complexities may not be good choices for this type of business model. •
