Ocean magazine: What are the points of difference that set Burgess apart from other brokers here in Australia?
Chris Santon: I certainly think it’s our ability to offer a truly global reach for any purchase options internationally. Our employment model, meaning all our sales brokers are salaried, results in complete department collaboration.
I speak daily with my colleagues in Monaco, London, New York, Miami, Hong Kong and every other major yachting centre worldwide, and can lean on any of them to assist me with viewings, yacht inspections and reports for any yacht that is of interest to our clients from this region.
In short, speaking to me on local time is the same as speaking to a sales broker in the Monaco or Miami office and allows me to do the groundwork for our clients on multiple time zones.
