How do you uncover
information in the

“They will never pay that much.”
“We've got to have it done in 60 days.”
“There is a lot of competition.”
“They would never be interested in this option.”
“They don’t have enough money.”
“I’m sure we’re not the top bidder.”
7. Needs
NUMERAL
Determine the nature of the needs and wants. Is it:
• More space?
• A new workplace solution?
• A green and natural buffer from retail/commercial uses?
• The satisfaction of having city recognize community needs?
• To clean up an eyesore?
What's the most important need?

of the negotiations?
• Allot time to prepare.
• Identify the pressures.
• Time is money so use it.
• Beware of the quick deal.
• Uncover the deadlines, real or imposed.
• Ask questions to determine if parties have any time issues.

This answers all of the “why” questions.

value?
