Hello.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 the Valley of the Sun.

Steven Jack Butala:Today is Jill Friday. She's going to talk about identifying...

Jill DeWit:I'm going to talk about-

Steven Jack Butala:She going to talk about Jillification.

Jill DeWit:Yep, Jillifying it over the holidays. We got this. It may not be written down, but I remembered, because I have that kind of an amazing memory.

Steven Jack Butala:Someone did the script wrong.

Jill DeWit:Like an elephant.

Steven Jack Butala:I wonder. 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. And don't forget to subscribe on The Land Academy YouTube channel and comment on the shows you like.

Jill DeWit:Am I remembering that right? What the heck is going on over here?

Steven Jack Butala:I don't know.

Jill DeWit:It's just like, you know what?

Steven Jack Butala:It's right before Christmas is what's going on.

Jill DeWit:It's Christmas Eve. This is airing on Christmas Eve. So am I remembering the elephant right? Does the elephant have a good memory or is that just a saying?

Steven Jack Butala:Well, I don't know if they do or not, but it is a saying.

Jill DeWit:I've never actually sat down and talked to an elephant.

Steven Jack Butala:You know what I learned?

Jill DeWit:Tell me.

Steven Jack Butala:Recently, that elephants can find groundwater. They have a sense, like a sense of smell for finding groundwater.

Jill DeWit:That's flipping cool. I did not know that.

Steven Jack Butala:And so during a drought, they'll dig. Altogether, they'll dig and get down to the water and survive.

Jill DeWit:That is so darn cool. Yeah, so it's Christmas Eve. So yeah, I like that you're sporting your Merry Christmas hat. And I'm wearing my Jillify hat for today. So back to the show. Matt wrote,"Can you still get a deal done at the end of the year?"And then [Lori 00:01:39], one of our cool people in Land Academy answered this. And then I'm going to talk more about it too.

Steven Jack Butala:It's a good little story.

Jill DeWit:So Lori says,"Oh, it happens."That was his question, then we're just reading one of the responses, and then we'll talk about it. She says,"I had a seven day close on my first house I put under contract on Christmas Eve day, and it closed on New Year's Eve. That title company said it couldn't be done. There were too many forms to get filled up by too many people. And yes, it was back then, by the way."She's like, not to tell you the year, or how old my children are, or how old I am. She said,"This was before email, but still exactly the same as New York is today."That's funny."So I talked them into letting me deliver the forms and purpose. And I told everyone I was a courier for the title company, and I had to-"Steven Jack Butala:
Isn't that great?

Jill DeWit:"I had to wait, and get the form filled out."Steven Jack Butala:
This is something you would do.Jill DeWit:
I would do the same thing.Steven Jack Butala:
Just get it done, man.Jill DeWit:
This is brilliant. I'm a courier. I'll wait [inaudible 00:02:32] in here. That's awesome. And they said it was one of their easiest closings ever. That's it. That's perfect. That's Jillifying it.

Steven Jack Butala:This is perfectly on topic today.

Jill DeWit:Mm-hmm (affirmative). Good one. Thank you.

Steven Jack Butala:Today's topic is... Well, it's Jill Friday, Jillifying year-end land deals. This is the meat of the show.

Jill DeWit:So that is one of them. Actually, that's B. So I have three points to make here, and it's going to tie into this question, which is awesome. So end of year, are we even working? Do people buy things?
