Why use a Broker?
Simply, for your certainty!
If you were buying or selling a house you typically would use a broker/agent, they ensure that all laws and regulations are complied with, they verify the other parties involved and they ensure that the house is a sound investment.
When you buy or sell IPv4 address space you use a broker for the same reasons. An IPv4 broker knows where to find the other party to your deal, they have long standing relationships with other buyers, sellers and brokers. They make sure that the price agreed to is fair, they manage communications, make sure laws and regulations are being complied with. IPv4 Brokers will have standard documentation, processes and procedures to ensure each transfer happens as smoothly and efficiently as possible.
Let’s face it… IPv4 is an intangible asset and it’s bought and sold globally. Most companies, if they deal with sourcing or selling IPv4 at all, might only do a handful of these types of transfers.
To complete an IPv4 transaction successfully you need to identify the other party, anywhere they may be in the world; then, you need to agree on a price, you need to make sure they keep their side of the deal. After all that you need to make sure you don’t get a call from your taxation office or accountant saying, “we just noticed a large money transfer, what was that for and how can we tax you for it?”.
You use an IPv4 broker because this is their job, they do these transfers all day everyday, they know the other party you need and they know how to complete the transfer with as little fuss as possible.
