Hiring Your Land Staff Dream Team (LA 1387)

Transcript:



Steven Jack Butala:

Steve and Jill here.



Jill DeWit:

Howdy.



Steven Jack Butala:

Welcome to The Land Academy Show. Entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.



Jill DeWit:

And I'm Jill DeWit, broadcasting from sunny Southern California.



Steven Jack Butala:

Today Jill and I talk about hiring your land staff dream team. Again, this topic came from Jill's debut ladies... What's it called?



Jill DeWit:

Land Academy Ladies.



Steven Jack Butala:

Jill identified through a popular request to start a women's closed investment group. So if you're a Land Academy member and you're a female, you are welcome to join.



Jill DeWit:

Yup.



Steven Jack Butala:

How would they do that?



Jill DeWit:

Send a note to support@landacademy.com and you will get the email invite. It's a closed zoom meeting that we do every Tuesday afternoon.



Steven Jack Butala:

So I have to say on this women's group thing, more than just being a woman's group, I think it's a celebration and a reward system and a motivational system for people who are like-minded. And I think that this day and age, that doesn't get enough notoriety or enough credits. I think if you surround yourself by people who are like-minded, who share the same opinions and views and aspirations, or let's say values that you do, I think it can be an incredibly powerful and incredibly empowering tool. So if it happens to be gender, great. If it happens to be education level, great. If it happens to be... Whatever it is, I think that surrounding yourself with people... And I'm not saying close your mind. I'm saying learn from people that are of like-mind. That's it. And I don't know what you guys talked about. I mean, well maybe you can summarize what you guys talked about.



Jill DeWit:

Nope. That's the whole point. No. And I'll tell you right now too. Right now we are not showing those recordings. They are not posted anywhere. It's for that group. We're there and we have our cameras on, and we're smiling and laughing, and there's kids in the background, and it's fun. Because people are... We're getting work done. We all have busy lives. And it's just for us. So no, I'm not going to paraphrase it.



Steven Jack Butala:

Wow. Before we get into it. Let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community. It's free.



Jill DeWit:

Josh wrote. Hello. All I have a lot that I'm purchasing for $15,000. Title report came back with three issues, with issues, excuse me. A deed that appears to have been filed incorrectly. The grantor and the grantee were switched. Hilarious. And a quick claim deed later in the chain of title. The title company has said that needs to replaced with a general warranty deed. The title company's working to fix these issues and appears we'll be able to do so. Well that's cool. I'm going to pause right there should just say it's kind of-



Steven Jack Butala:

Congratulations.



Jill DeWit:

Yeah. You found the one title company. Just kidding. An agent willing to do this. This is really good. People think that when you get a deed recorded that they double check it all. That it's good to go. Just because I got a stamp on it and got it returned with the date on it, and a book and page number that I did it right. I'm good to go. No. You could hand them your laundry list and they will record it and send it back to you. They don't check the stuff.

And this is a perfect example. It goes from... They just they're literally just the recorder. That's it. I got this certificate, I recorded it, and it went into the books. And until it makes its way to the right person,
