Quote of the Week

 

The problem with thick skin is that it leaves you impervious to the sharpest of pins. Everything becomes dull. But without that sense of pain, there cannot be that sense of relief. Ultimately, the thickened skin leaves you numb, incapable of feeling the highs and lows of life. It leaves you rough like a rock and just as inanimate.
                                                           ― Michael Soll


 President's Corner

       Over the last four weeks I have been giving you tips on precisely what NOT to say to a note holder. In this last installment of what not to say is this:

          Do NOT say "F*^# You." The savviest negotiators take nothing personally; they are impervious to criticism and impossible to fluster. And because they seem unmoved by the whole situation and unimpressed with the stakes involved, they have a way of unnerving less-experienced counterparts.

        This can be an effective weapon when used against note holders, because note holders tend to take every aspect of their note and the securing property very personally. Note holders often style themselves as frank, no-nonsense individuals, and they can at times have thin skin. But whenever you negotiate, remember that it pays to stay calm, to never show that an absurdly low counter-offer or an annoying stalling tactic has upset you.

        Use your level-headedness to unnerve the person who is trying to negotiate with you. And if he or she becomes angry or peeved, don't take the bait to strike back. Just take heart: You've grabbed the emotional advantage in the situation.

        Now go close that deal. If you are new to negotiation, or feel it is an area where you can improve I hope these few tips I’ve shared with you over the last five weeks have been helpful.

          More next week! Remember, Success Demands Action! Keep on marketing, it’s going to work! TWITA!

Survive and be Successful

      

I was informed that in a recent interview with a well-known note industry professional it was stated that brokers couldn’t survive in the seller financed note industry as it is and may need to look at getting into the origination business. I’m not so sure...Read More

Question of the Week

Q - Hi Jeff,

          When the note holders sell 120 or 60 payments, how many years does the note holder have to wait to resell more months from his note?  Your form of analysis of cash options explains in detail how the note holders will get more money from selling partials. I explain in my emails and verbally. Thank you for that form. Thank you!
                                                     ~ Leonard
A – Hi Leonard!
          Usually note buyers like to wait a little while, say 12-18 months, to establish a good pay record before buying more payments.  However, we have bought remainder payments form the seller as soon as 3 months after the initial purchase. It just depends on the investor and the situation.
Hope this helps!
                                                       ~ Jeff
