       Negotiation starts from the moment you first connect with a note holder. "Scripts and Tips - A Handbook for the Serious Note Broker" was written to help you with just that. Every month I am asked about what to say to note holders when they contact you on that first phone call, when gathering information, giving the price and negotiating.  In addition, the book lists for you more specific questions for certain situations and property types including condo's, commercial properties and land. It also spells out a few of what I call "magic" questions to help you determine that all important motivation or need that the note holder must have if you are ever going to get them to accept an offer.

Quote of the Week

 

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of those depths.

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross 



 President's Corner

       I often get asked about what hours I actually work every day.  The short answer is that it varies.  Keep in mind I have been a note professional for over 25 years and what I do is not necessarily what you would do. My suggestion is to adapt your hours to seasons.  You heard me right. I have had a lot of time to compile my personal statistics so I know when I am going to need to put more hours in and when I can get away with less hours.  For example, reducing the hours in the summer and increasing them in the winter to accommodate my busy season is a smart business decision for my business for a couple of reasons. The obvious being that it saves time, but also that it allows for creativity to offer note holders incentives at certain times of the year. Shorter hours also gives me time to prepare and plan for the next season and test new concepts. Everyone needs a little time to clear his or her head, and think of new directions for their note business. Remember, Success Demands Action! Keep on marketing, it’s going to work! TWITA!

Question of the Week

Q - Hi Jeff,

          What specific markets do you target where I can get started brokering  notes? I've already heard some examples that you used in the online class. Were those your actual markets that you target or were those just examples re: small towns on the outskirts of big cities, trailer park areas, etc.? What about list companies? Let me know. TWITA!

A - Hi Marc!

          Thanks for the email! Since you are on the east coast you want to pick some states in your time zone to start. So maybe NY, FL, SC, NC, and GA would be some good states to start in.  There really are no bad states just that some have more seller financed notes. The note holder list companies I use and recommend have changed so let me know if you need them. If you have any questions before ordering any names and moving forward! Hope this helps! TWITA!
