AIM Control (AIM Group®) 
Pre Purchase Vessel Condition Survey/ Inspection?

For over 30 years AIM Control has been providing "Professional Marine Services" to Vietnam, International area boaters. 

AIM Control (AIM Group®) offers a "Inspection of Pre-purchase vessel condition" that has saved Vietnam, International area boaters, vessels and ships hundreds of thousands of dollars in pre existing conditions/repairs.

Based on the sellers information, and the appearance of the boat we really did not expect to find anything and were prepared to move forward with the purchase. Although you thought to found the perfect boat to be used AIM Control (AIM Group®) to perform a pre purchase survey/inspection. After the survey/inspection was completed you were very enlightened at the findings and confronted the seller with the report.

There was several thousand dollars in pre existing needed repairs! After asking the seller some pointed questions you realized the seller was fully aware of these needed repairs but did not disclose the information to you & your company. Needless to say the "Super Nice Seller" was less than honest. You would recommend to anyone considering purchasing a pre owned boat to have a pre purchase survey/inspection, regardless how great the boat looks, and how nice the seller appears.

You are purchasing a pre owned boats, vessels, ships from a dealer. Although the boat was not to expensive You want to have a survey/inspection performed as a precaution, the dealer was not very pleased with your decision. After watching the process You are amazed at the detail and how the surveyor/inspector checked everything on the boat, everything! After reading the report you realized there is much more in repairs than the dealer informed you. In an effort to make the sale the dealer really minimized the cost of needed repairs. The total cost of the repairs was many times the amount the dealer said (in the thousands), it was more than the purchase price of the boat! You saved thousands and did not do business with that dealer.

Before you buy take the time to have a pre purchase survey/inspection completed. We have been providing surveys/inspections for many years and guarantee if there is any pre existing condition we will find it and report it directly to you, the buyer! There are many very nice sellers who are honest, however we also know there are sellers who may not be honest and do not have your best interest in mind.
