Steering Clear of Pitfalls: The One Inquiry You Should Refrain from Answering for Your Note Vendors

 

Introduction: When buying company selling notes, it is important to navigate the market carefully to ensure you get the best deal possible. However, there is one question you should avoid answering directly when a potential note vendor asks you –

 

Can I get the total value for my notes?

 

In this article, we will discuss why you should refrain from answering this question and provide you with some tactics to navigate this tricky situation.

  1. The Importance of Providing Options: When a note seller asks for the total value of their notes, it is crucial to provide them with some options. Offering a partial quote may be beneficial for both parties involved. It gives the seller more options and allows you to buy a part of the note at a lower price, providing you with a better deal.
  2. Fair Market Value: When discussing the note’s fair market value, it assures the seller that you are providing them with a fair amount for their property. This helps establish trust between you and the seller and can lead to more successful deals in the future.
  3. Dependent on Variables: It is essential to note that the note’s fair market value depends on a couple of variables. While every note may have some excellent and bad variables, it is essential to use the good points of the note when quoting a deal.
  4. Understanding Property and Note Questions: Asking questions about the property and notes is crucial to understand better what you are about to buy. This information is essential to provide the seller with an accurate number.
  5. Tactics to Use: If a seller is insistent about getting a quote without providing the necessary information, you can use one of the following two tactics:
  • The first tactic involves telling the seller you want to sell a car and asking them what price they can pay. They will ask you about the type of car and the model, and this is where you can tell them that you cannot provide that information. Similarly, since you will be paying for the note, you need to know some details to get the most amount for the seller.
  • The second tactic involves telling the seller that you need details about the note because, without any specifics, you will not be able to get them an accurate number. And since they have a great note, it is essential to get some details to get good value for it.
  1. Why You Shouldn’t Answer Directly: When someone asks if they can get the total value for their notes, it is a witty question, and it should not be answered immediately with a simple yes or no. A good answer to this would be, “That’s an excellent question, and I am glad you asked!” This gives the note seller time to think before going further in the conversation. Establishing confidence on your part will go a long way toward establishing trust between you during negotiations, which can lead to more successful deals.

Conclusion: Navigating the market to sell notes requires careful consideration and understanding. When a note seller asks if they can get the total value for their notes, it is essential to avoid answering directly. Providing options, understanding fair market value and variables, asking questions, and using tactics are all essential to navigating this situation successfully.
