Cash purchases of securities and products are becoming more popular due to immediate ownership, fewer fees, and no outstanding payments. Buyers with liquid assets can benefit from cash discounts and peace of mind.
The cash purchase is about buying securities and products outright, rather than arranging some form of financing as part of the acquisition. Once considered the only way to purchase essentials, cash purchases lost a large share of the market to credit purchases, but that trend has shown signs of reversing in recent years. There are actually some advantages to the direct purchase approach that can be very attractive to buyers who have liquid assets available.
One of the best things about the cash purchase is that the buyer’s satisfaction is immediate and complete. You do not need to schedule a future date to complete the transaction. As soon as the cash payment is made, the seller will issue the appropriate documents to effect the transfer of ownership immediately. The new owner is immediately free to do whatever he wants with the product or security, including turning around and putting the asset up for sale.
A second advantage of buying with cash is that there are often fewer fees associated with completing the transaction. There are no interest payments to consider, and there are no fees involved in arranging other modes of payment. Additionally, some sellers will offer a cash discount if a buyer is willing to pay in full in the form of cash. This can lead to additional savings that will help make the business that much more attractive.
Finally, the buyer who prefers to make direct purchases never has to worry about missing a payment date in the future. Since the asset was paid for at the time of acquisition, there are no outstanding payments. Therefore, opportunities for late fees or other penalties are completely eliminated, and the buyer can enjoy the security or product without worrying about outstanding indebtedness related to the asset. The peace of mind that can come from a buy cash approach may not be tangible, but it is an important factor for many investors.
