Who can list a lighthouse?
Owners, listing agents, nonprofits that own a lighthouse and government sellers can list. You can list a lighthouse that is for sale privately, at a federal auction or on offer for free transfer. We do not list lighthouses that are not for sale, and we do not act as a broker.
Lighthouse Dream does not take part in the sale. Buyers are sent to your agent, your website or the official notice, and negotiate with you directly.
What does a listing include?
A listing has a page with photos, the price or route, the location and access, the year built, the structure, utilities, the status of the light, the sale history and a link to your source. Each fact is dated, and the page shows when we last checked it.
Send what you have. We ask for a source for every price and every claim, and we tell you what is missing.
How do you verify a listing?
We check each listing against a public source before it goes live: the MLS record, your agent’s page, a government notice or a news report. We also check the light status and the historic status independently. If a fact does not match, we ask you or leave it out.
The full rules are in how we verify listings. Prices are labeled asking, high bid or sold, so a buyer always knows which number they are looking at.
How do we treat your photos?
We credit the photographer or the agent on every page and link back to your listing. Send high-resolution originals if you can. If you would rather we did not show a photo, email us and we will remove it.
Photos that we take from public listings are credited the same way. If you own one and want it removed, write to us and we will take it down.
