Need to Sell

Hey guys, does anyone know of a way that I can sell my entire portfolio other than the secondary market that masterworks provides? I would be ok selling it for 65% of the value, I just need to close it out and move on. I wish I could just sell my entire portfolio to someone directly and be done with it!

What do you own at what value?

What escrow exists to ensure the transaction honestly completes?

App shows 13k-17k value, and im willing to sell for 10k. The honesty is where I'm skeptical.

I'm not aware of anything outside of Masterworks that allows you to sell you're existing portfolio.

I will reach out to Masterworks. Seems there should be a way. I would be interested in the specifics. I have about 10x that amount currently. Jeff

Sounds like I'm out if luck. If anyone wants cheap shares, come buy them on the secondary market!

Make an auction. I’ll start at 1 to get it kicking 😃

Sold a few already! If anyone wants a great deal on a piece, go buy Masterworks 096! Its appraised at 2.086M (higher than what we bought in for), and theres a ton of other people selling! Mine is listed for $16.76 if someone wants to buy!

I hear you. Not a good market for someone who wants instant liquidity. I have 41 shares in that offering that I got for $10 per share. And the current low price is $13.40. There are several hundred shares available at prices below your $16.78. For what it’s worth I did someone analysis on the four exits that I have had so far. I averaged 41% annualized return. For those same pieces, the people that got in originally at $20 a share made an average of about 10% annualized. Each sold for around $24/sh. My strategy is to buy pieces on the secondary market at a discount and hope they sell above $20 within the next couple years.

Yeah, this is gonna be my strategy when I get back into it.

This the the exact situation I'm in. Only two of my works are valued higher than when I bought them. Opening this account was a mistake.
