If the deal only works with full cash up front, it is not a deal. It is a donation.
Use these questions to get the seller to fund the purchase:
- If I meet your price, how much are you willing to carry?
- What down payment do you need to feel comfortable saying yes?
- What monthly payment would feel fair to you?
- What performance targets should the rest be tied to so you only get paid if results are hit?
- What transition support would you need in writing to feel confident handing it off?
Copy paste this on your next call:
“Your price makes sense. I can get there on terms. What amount will you carry, and what milestones should the rest be tied to?”
If you are looking to buy in the next 30 to 90 days and you have the money to do it, comment "TERMS" and I will reply with the exact term stack I use.
