Text message negotiations….thoughts?

[Amanda Sutherlin]

I've always thought it 'bad' to negotiate deals via text message, I personally would rather talk the old fashioned way over the phone or better yet face to face. I’m currently trying to negotiate an owner finance deal where the owner will just not call, I’ve asked a few times and she will always say she’d rather text only. I do believe there might be a language barrier.

What are your thoughts on negotiating via text messages?

I think it is totally fine and I prefer to negotiate over email or text.  I think it cuts out the bull, I don't care why you are selling or what sort of situation you are in...  my offer is my offer
