Hello Everyone,
Jennifer Alcide I have been though similar situations like this, and asked why certain info was needed. Here is what my rebuttal would be if I was in your situation.
" The reason I need to know (question), is because it will help me to provide you the best solution to sell this house and make sure you will get the best purchase price possible, sounds fair, right? Ok, (ask question) "
Simple, but it has work for me (different products/services), and they will go ahead and answer the remaining questions willingly, because they now know I am looking out for his/her best interest, by providing the best solution and price possible
If the person continues to push for more information, then i will go into the details of why i need that piece of information. Like Dion DePaoli mentioned "best answer is usually the truthful one"
Jerry Puckett mentioned to take control of the conversation, keep that in mind and I am sure You will easily bypass any resistance you come across over the phone.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
Take Care,
EJN
PS.
If you are not doing it already, you might want to write down resistant questions you come across while talking to your clients, and create rebuttals for them so you can easily answer them next time.

Hello Everyone!
I Hope you all had a great week!
I wanted to take the time to introduce myself. I am 28 years young, originally from Long Island, NY and been a San Diego resident for almost 8 years now. My background is in sales/marketing for the past 6 years in different fields ranging from services & products.
I have a Genuine Passion for Real Estate Notes, and will be my primary investing module. I can confidently say i understand the basics on how the 'note business' operates by taking the time to learn the TVM, and how to use my "HP10BII" and calculate yield/etc (I had a very long episode of "Paralysis of Analysis" reviewing the note business materials i can get a hold of)
As far as hands-on experience, I have helped a friend of mine close two transactions, during the russ dalby - easy as 123 days. So I know it is possible, even when it wasn't easy as 1-2-3 and had to put in some time-equity and personal errors. Due to my situation I can now dedicate myself Full-Time to my passion, and achieve the financial freedom i desire.
So I am looking to network with experience & no-experience r.e investors and help each other attain our goals, and share knowledge to consistently improve our-self's.
Looking Forward to a successful Bigger Pockets Experience!!
Kindly,
Edwin Noriega
