DO NOT trust Jake Pyzik. He is absolutely the MOST untrustworthy and unprofessional sales person I’ve ever dealt with.... We NEVER received a copy of our signed offer. The sale didn’t work out and after 3 weeks we still have NOT received our good faith deposit back. He told my husband it was in the mail 3 weeks ago. And definitely DO NOT use the marine surveyor he recommends. Thank God we didn’t. If I could give him less than 1 Star it would still be too much.read more

We could not say enough about Houseboats Buy Terry. We found the perfect boat on their website. Ceysha was so helpful... in every detail.
