There is something important missing.
Exchange no money until the contract has been agreed TO YOUR SATISFACTION, and signed and witnessed.
Negotiation is about you and your counterpart both getting what you want/need and how to achieve this together. Some compromises have to be made, but not on key objectives.
Research should tell you the "right price" before you even enter the room, so you can take or leave deals with confidence.
A genuine person will have no problem pretecting themselves and you with a solid contract.
