Questions brokers ask before joining

FAQ

Clear answers about access, privacy, subscriptions, and working inside OffLists.

Who can join OffLists?

OffLists is for active yacht brokers and brokerage desks. Applications are reviewed manually before access is approved.

What can a verified free broker do?

After beta, verified free access allows 1 live listing and 1 live buyer request. Paid plans add full browsing, messaging, and more opportunity capacity.

What does paid access unlock?

Paid access unlocks full listing and request browsing, broker identities, direct messaging, follow alerts, broker profiles, and agreement workflows.

Are listings public?

No. OffLists is not a public marketplace. Listings and buyer requests are shared inside a reviewed broker-only environment.

Why do unpaid users see anonymous brokers?

Broker identity is part of paid network access. This protects broker relationships while still letting verified brokers preview market activity.

How do buyer requests work?

Brokers can publish client demand with yacht type, size, budget, and preferred locations so other brokers can match relevant opportunities.

Can I message another broker?

Yes, paid brokers can start direct conversations from listings, buyer requests, or broker profiles. Threads keep the relevant context attached.

Does OffLists create legal agreements?

OffLists can generate draft co-brokerage or buyer-introduction agreements from a conversation. Drafts should be reviewed by legal counsel before signature.

Who handles payment details?

Payments are processed securely by Stripe. OffLists does not store card or bank details on its own servers.

How long does approval take?

Most complete applications can be reviewed within 24-48 hours. LinkedIn or a reference can help speed up manual review.

How do monthly opportunity credits work?

Each new listing or buyer request uses one publishing credit. Solo includes 3 new posts per month and 9 active; Broker Pro includes 10 new and 30 active. Unused monthly credits carry over once, up to one monthly grant. Brokerage Desk is unlimited.

What do closed-beta brokers receive?

Approved closed-beta brokers can keep up to 9 active opportunities without a monthly publishing cap during beta. From full launch, they receive 3 months of Founder Broker Pro access. There is no automatic charge.
