Top 5 Land Business Tools You Need & Should Avoid (LA 1304)

Transcript:



Jack Butala:

Steve and Jill here.



Jill DeWit:

Hello.



Jack Butala:

Welcome to the Land Academy Show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.



Jill DeWit:

And I'm Jill Dewitt, broadcasting from sunny southern California.



Jack Butala:

Today, Jill and I talk about the top five land business tools that you need and some that you're don't think you need, or probably should ever need.



Jill DeWit:

Like which ones are stupid?



Jack Butala:

Yeah. Which group do you think I want to talk about the most?



Jill DeWit:

The ones you don't need. Is that it?



Jack Butala:

The ones that are stupid, yeah.



Jill DeWit:

Because they keep coming up now, I think.



Jack Butala:

But like every show, I have to restrain myself, control my language and try to deliver some entertaining real estate investment advice.



Jill DeWit:

It's like going out to dinner with you.



Jack Butala:

Oh, really?



Jill DeWit:

Yes.



Jack Butala:

Let's hear that. What's that experience typically like?



Jill DeWit:

Oh, it's interesting. It's usually good. But now and then, I have to say, "Shh, there are people in this place. We have to tone it down. There are children over there."



Jack Butala:

Here's what I've gotten used to saying and doing, like, "Hey Jill, am I too much? Is this too much?"



Jill DeWit:

That's so true.



Jack Butala:

And probably most of the time you say, "No, it's fine."



Jill DeWit:

Do you know why?



Jack Butala:

Let's hear.



Jill DeWit:

Here's my argument. And for everyone listening, this applies to you as well. I can say this now because you can't get mad at me here because we're on the show. So babe, if you have to ask, am I too much, that's a pretty good indication you might be too.



Jack Butala:

Well, I'm sure that's true. I was just going to say, you usually say, "No, no, it's fine." It's an enthusiastic, "No, no, it's fine." I really want to hear-



Jill DeWit:

Because you say it out loud and people are looking at me. They want to know what the answer is.



Jack Butala:

Well, it's like, "No, no, it's fine. I want to hear the rest of what you're going to say," or it's like, "No, it's fine," or it's like, "Yeah, it's too much." I have three shots.



Jill DeWit:

I know. Well usually what happens is I'll be very honest. I'm like, "No, it's great." And then later on a few minutes later, I'll go quietly to you. I'll say, "Can you just tone down X or Y? But, thank you."



Jack Butala:

There's a lot to be frustrated in this life right now. And I'm sure-



Jill DeWit:

I get it.



Jack Butala:

... if you listen to this show, you're obviously pretty intelligent.



Jill DeWit:

I hope you are.



Jack Butala:

You're frustrated too.



Jill DeWit:

Or bored.



Jack Butala:

I bet you, you're frustrated like me. 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:

Jackson wrote, "I sold a property three months ago I originally bought with title insurance, but the notary closed it on the sell end. During the title close, I had to have the legal description redone by the surveyor, which I paid for. Shortly before I sold it, I had the abutter reach out to me saying how she saw it was for sale and told me the boundaries are wrong."
