Removing Risk from Your REI Career (ReAir CFFL 0207) Transcript: Jack Butala: Jack Butala for Land Academy. Welcome to our Cash Flow From Land show. In this episode, Jill and I talk about removing risk from your REI career. Great show today, Jill. Before we start, let's hear some funny stuff. Jill DeWit: It's interesting that I am still surprised by the things that come out of your blog sometimes, Jack. What were you checking for titles today? Jack Butala: What? Jill DeWit: I'm not sure those will pass the ... Jack Butala: My gosh. Jill DeWit: Who's in charge of when you write a blog and you title ... Is there an FCC? Who's in charge of that kind of thing? I happen to, Jack Butala: You mean the boredom- Jill DeWit: ... catch you. Jack Butala: The boredom factor? Jill DeWit: No, no, no, no. I caught the ... I was lucky enough to sit in on your marketing meeting today. You guys are running through some title checker thing which I thought was really cool. I was just a little surprised by how far south you two took it looking for titles is what I'm trying to say. Jack Butala: What did you hear? Jill DeWit: I heard things like strippers. I heard things like how horrible it is to be Italian. Jack Butala: It's not horrible to be Italian. It's great to be Italian. Jill DeWit: No, wait. Not horrible, but what was the word? Shucks, I forgot what the terminology was. Jack Butala: Italian people, at times, communicate through yelling. I'm softening it for the show. Jill DeWit: You were working on something like a blog title and print titles. That's what I caught. I was just like ... I can't believe I'm still surprised by what you guys come up with. Jack Butala: I'm having trouble being Italian. That was one of them. Jill DeWit: There you go. It was really funny. All good. Jack Butala: Yeah, that is some funny stuff that we heard today. Jill DeWit: Yes. Jack Butala: Boy, if I knew that was the topic, I would have some [insane 00:01:40] one-liners. Anyway, let's take a question- Jill DeWit: That's why you don't know what's coming until I get to say that. Jack Butala: Let's take a question posted by one of our members on successplant.com, our free online community. Jill DeWit: Okay. Kyle says, "I'm just getting started in pulling my first list from Agent Pro. For property type, do I select agricultural/rural or residential vacant land?" Do you want to back up? Jack Butala: Can you take a crack at answering that? Jill DeWit: Well, I would like to back up and ask, if you would, Jack, explain what he's trying to do here for people that might be just joining in. Jack Butala: Yeah. There's lots of places to go get data. Most of them are ... Well, some of them are very credible. What you want to make sure about any data that you pull is a couple of things. One that it's fresh because properties get bought and sold all the time. If you have a database or a list ... If you're not accessing a database, chances are you have a list. A list can be old. It could be 20 years old, two years old, one year old. We don't know. It could be from yesterday. You want fresh data. The best way to do that is to access the database. Jack Butala: Number two, you want that database for all product types, not just land,
How Much Time Does Startup Really Take Jack Butala: How Much Time Does Startup Really Take. Every Single month we give away a property for free. It's super simple to qualify. Two simple steps. Leave us your feedback for this podcast on iTunes and number two, get the free ebook at landacademy.com, you don't even have to read it. Thanks for listening. Jack Butala: Jack Butala for Land Academy, welcome to our Cash Flow From The Land show. In this episode, Jill and I discuss starting a new company and how much time it takes, and some of the associated resources we think are needed. Jill I love this topic, and heck, while LandStay, our regular old land selling operation is what, 17 years plus years old. Land Academy is still very much in the startup stage so I think this is a timely topic and as usual, I think we're pretty qualified to discuss it. Hey before we do though, let's take a question from a caller. Jill DeWit: Okay. Steven from Washington called in and asked, "I've only ever used county tax roles as data to send out mailers. Why is Data To Doorstep any better than the actual county assessor data?" Jack Butala: What's Data to Doorstep? Jill DeWit: What is Data to Doorstep? Jack Butala: I'm asking you. Jill DeWit: I know what Data to Doorstep is. Data to Doorstep is our brand new data and mailer bundled program. We have two levels, we have a membership level for our Land Academy members and then we have a Rogue Pro level because we have a number of professionals out there like real estate agents and things that they just need the data and the mailer part. So they have a Rogue Pro ... Jack Butala: We are a licensed provider of First American Titles data. The same data they use to write title policies. We are not a list reseller, which everybody else is. Jill DeWit: Right. Jack Butala: We're going to actually have a podcast- Jill DeWit: That's a good point. Jack Butala: -on that whole topic. Data to Doorstep is a product that Jill and I launched. Developed and launched. Both of us personally launched it, based on requests we were getting from our Land Academy members. Jill DeWit: Mm-hmm (affirmative)- Jack Butala: You log into a database- The same one that First American Title uses. It's online, and you choose the records that you want based on a bunch of instructional videos that I produce and that are just I guess basically out there on the internet. Not just mine, but any of them. Jill DeWit: Mm-hmm (affirmative)- Jack Butala: You choose a data set and then you print it out. Print out offers and wait for them to come back in the mail and buy some properties super under value. Jill DeWit: Mm-hmm (affirmative)- Jack Butala: That's my two cents. Jill DeWit: Interesting. Jack Butala: That's my description of the silliness that we just created. Jill DeWit: Well the question was, why is it different by the way? How is it better? Well, because the format. I mean, that's a- That's a whole other podcast but with Data to Doorstep you do this in a couple hours on a Sunday. You can sit, pull the data, merge it into a spreadsheet ... you know, upload it to a printer. Jack Butala: Yeah. Jill DeWit: Monday they can be printing it out and putting your letters and your offers in the mail. That's the beauty of it, versus the old way. Jack Butala: What's the old way? Jill DeWit: If I'm lucky..

Jill DeWit: Happy Tuesday. Jack Butala: Welcome to our show today. In this episode Jill and I talk about mailing offers to the same county twice. Jill DeWit: Why would you do that? Jack Butala: You're cracking me up. Before we get into it let's take a question placed by one of our members on the LandAcademy.com online community. It's free. Jill DeWit: Cool. All right. Katrina asked ... This is actually one of our weekly calls. This is a really good question, so we wanted to throw it in here for everybody. This is the kind of stuff we talk about by the way in our weekly member calls. Do you recommend outsourcing the initial incoming call from sellers to service like if you're working full time? Should the calls be answered live? This is a really good question. Jack Butala: Go ahead, Jill. Jill DeWit: Because most of our members are in that situation. Jack Butala: Yeah. Nearly all. Jill DeWit: Yeah. They have a day job. Jack Butala: As they should be. Jill DeWit: Exactly. Nobody is quitting their anything yet if they do, and if they do do quit their day job it's not for a very, very long time until it makes no more sense to have that day job, so I'll get off that soap box. Anyway, the answer is yes, and there's so many good cheap offerings out there. Jack Butala: There answer is yes and yes and yes. There are three questions in there. Jill DeWit: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Do you want to take it? Jack Butala: Yeah. I mean, the last question is do you need to answer your phone live? The answer is not, it's hell yes. There's huge statistics out there, and that's not coming from just me. That when somebody answers the phone there's a much better response, and a much better yield to whatever you're trying to do. Whether it's sell or buy or whatever. Jill DeWit: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Jack Butala: Even if it's somebody that's an assistant or somebody in another country that you hire or whatever, so like everything we're solving this problem for our members by getting a contract with people who do this. They outsource answering the phone. Jill DeWit: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Jack Butala: Don't wait for it. You should absolutely find somebody to do that. Jill DeWit: There's plenty of services out there month to month, and you give them a script. Jack Butala: Yeah. Jill DeWit: They'll do exactly what you want, so it's really easy, so you could do something like have them answer the phone, say your company name, hey thanks for calling us, what kind of property do you have? You know, and they can take all the information down and say, "All right, well cutanea will be calling you back after 5:00, or if that's not convenient would you rather her call you this weekend?" Whatever you set up, and they can make that happen for the people, and make it real easy for you. Jack Butala: It solves two problems. Number one, what will end up happening is if 15 people call you while you're at work you'll get a script.

Jack Butala: Jack Butala for Land Academy. Welcome to our Cash Flow From Land show. In this episode, Jill and I talk about removing risk from your REI career. Great show today, Jill. Before we start, let's hear some funny stuff. Jill DeWit: It's interesting that I am still surprised by the things that come out of your blog sometimes, Jack. What were you checking for titles today? Jack Butala: What? Jill DeWit: I'm not sure those will pass the ... Jack Butala: My gosh. Jill DeWit: Who's in charge of when you write a blog and you title ... Is there an FCC? Who's in charge of that kind of thing? I happen to, Jack Butala: You mean the boredom- Jill DeWit: ... catch you. Jack Butala: The boredom factor? Jill DeWit: No, no, no, no. I caught the ... I was lucky enough to sit in on your marketing meeting today. You guys are running through some title checker thing which I thought was really cool. I was just a little surprised by how far south you two took it looking for titles is what I'm trying to say. Jack Butala: What did you hear? Jill DeWit: I heard things like strippers. I heard things like how horrible it is to be Italian. Jack Butala: It's not horrible to be Italian. It's great to be Italian. Jill DeWit: No, wait. Not horrible, but what was the word? Shucks, I forgot what the terminology was. Jack Butala: Italian people, at times, communicate through yelling. I'm softening it for the show. Jill DeWit: You were working on something like a blog title and print titles. That's what I caught. I was just like ... I can't believe I'm still surprised by what you guys come up with. Jack Butala: I'm having trouble being Italian. That was one of them. Jill DeWit: There you go. It was really funny. All good. Jack Butala: Yeah, that is some funny stuff that we heard today. Jill DeWit: Yes. Jack Butala: Boy, if I knew that was the topic, I would have some [insane 00:01:40] one-liners. Anyway, let's take a question- Jill DeWit: That's why you don't know what's coming until I get to say that. Jack Butala: Let's take a question posted by one of our members on successplant.com, our free online community. Jill DeWit: Okay. Kyle says, "I'm just getting started in pulling my first list from Agent Pro. For property type, do I select agricultural/rural or residential vacant land?" Do you want to back up? Jack Butala: Can you take a crack at answering that? Jill DeWit: Well, I would like to back up and ask, if you would, Jack, explain what he's trying to do here for people that might be just joining in. Jack Butala: Yeah. There's lots of places to go get data. Most of them are ... Well, some of them are very credible. What you want to make sure about any data that you pull is a couple of things. One that it's fresh because properties get bought and sold all the time. If you have a database or a list ... If you're not accessing a database, chances are you have a list. A list can be old. It could be 20 years old, two years old, one year old. We don't know. It could be from yesterday. You want fresh data. The best way to do that is to access the database. Number two, you want that database for all product types, not just land, to have a assessed value. It's the way that you can really scrub your data down and send offers to the right people. This is for apartment buildings. It's for houses. It's for vacant land, all product types. That's how you gauge who you're sending a letter to and that's, in some ways, how you priced the offer. If you don't have assessed value,
How Jack Jill Prepare for Economy Down Turn Transcript: Jack Butala: Jack and Jill here. Jill DeWit: Hi. Jack Butala: Welcome to the show today. In this episode, Jill and I talk about how to prepare for that inevitable economic downturn. 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: Cool. Billy M ... We know who you are, Billy ... Asked, or Sham God asked, "I'm looking to close on a deal and start marketing the properties, but the seller is making me wait until January 1st, 2018 to sell to me." Hmm. Clearly a tax reason. Jack Butala: Yeah. Jill DeWit: "Should I give them a check and start marketing the property and tell them to cash the check after January 1st and record after January 1st, or should this be a deal I should pass on since the seller is making me wait until after the new year." Doesn't bother me at all. Jack Butala: No, I think your concept is great. If he needs something, like let's close on January 1st, which is totally valid. This happens in real estate all the time, by the way. Jill DeWit: Yup. Jack Butala: Then you need something. He needs something, you need something. Jill DeWit: Yeah. Jack Butala: I think it's totally fair. Chances are ... This member has a track record of doing pretty good deals, so chances are if it fits your criteria then it's a good deal. If it's good enough to go all through this then absolutely. Jill DeWit: Yeah. Jack Butala: You'll have it sold by then anyway. And you could tell the buyer can't convey it until January 2nd. Jill DeWit: Maybe when that's the divorce is final. Maybe that's why. Jack Butala: Are you thinking about divorce now? Jill DeWit: I started to think what if I trigger having to have money and things appear on certain dates. First I would think taxes and then next I think divorce. Jack Butala: It's that ... Divorce day is Thursday for Jill. She wakes up in the morning, and you know how she always says I have little mantras that I have in my head? Jill DeWit: Yeah. Jack Butala: It's Thursday. Jill DeWit: On the recording days, it's like "I'm going to kill somebody." Jack Butala: It's Thursday. Divorce is possible. Jill DeWit: No. That's so funny. Oh. Truth be told- Jack Butala: Oh, here we go. Jill DeWit: Truth be told, we've had to make some staffing changes. Jack Butala: We had a rough week. Jill DeWit: We did. So, yeah. We've got a lot going on right now. No, I'm not going to divorce you or anything, you know that. Jack Butala: I do. Jill DeWit: Okay. Jack Butala: If we decided to split up for any reason ... Jill DeWit: Oh my gosh. Jack Butala: It would be kind of ... We shouldn't even be talking about this really. Jill DeWit: This is bad. Jack Butala: I don't even like saying it out loud, but it would be a race. Jill DeWit: I have a really good compliment to say about this. This matter of fact [inaudible 00:02:39] I had a meeting with an employee ... It was a group that I was talking to. I was speaking in a group the other night,
One Deal Leads to Ten Leads to One Hundred (CFFL 584) Transcript: Jack Butala: Jack and Jill here. Jill DeWit: Hi. Jack Butala: Welcome to the show. In this episode, Jill and I talk about how one deal leads to 10 and leads to 100. Before we get into it though let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community It's Free. Jill DeWit: Okay. Chris asks, "I've been receiving calls from some letters I mailed three or more years ago seeing if someone to purchase their property. I was wondering how to handle these type of offers. Do you still make an offer? Do I ask has anyone else reached out to them? Or do I pass because it took them this long to get back to me, and will take them even longer to make a choice to sell? Jack Butala: This question ... Jill DeWit: I like these. Jack Butala: Was designed for Jill DeWit. Jill DeWit: I know. Jack Butala: Because we would deal with this daily. Jill DeWit: Oh, totally. I love these calls. Jack Butala: The whole staff does, but, yeah, go ahead. Jill DeWit: So, you know what this means to me, Chris, number one you send out a good offer Jack Butala: Yeah. Jill DeWit: Because, you know what, they loved it and they hung onto it. Jack Butala: But this whole thing falls under congratulations, you rock. Jill DeWit: Yeah. You did it right. Didn't sing to them then, but they said you know what, they obviously liked your offer that long ago that it wasn't trash worthy. Seriously. It hung out in the file. They stuck it in their file and hung onto it. Jack Butala: They took you seriously. Jill DeWit: Yeah, for a rainy day. Jack Butala: It wasn't a four-color bleed postcard that to it may concern or current resident. Jill DeWit: So, now they are calling you back, and the first thing, which I love these calls. Every time this happens we have some ... 10, 12, 15 years ago, it's so funny. And the first thing is, "Oh my gosh you guys are still there." It's funny because there's a phone number and I'm gonna call it, and you know that they're surprised that somebody is still around. Yeah. What do you have? And we'll get the information, and then you know what? If it meets my criteria I'm still gonna buy it. Now the truth for us is the properties that I was purchasing 15 years ago and the transactions I'm doing today are often ... they are usually very different. I'm really not interested in a one, two, three, four, five thousand dollar property. A $100,000 property I am but doesn't mean I don't talk to these people too. I wanna get that information and I'm always gonna ask them too what else they have because what if this person, even though I sent them an offer on one, they own half of the mobile home park? I uncover that. Now it meets my criteria and I still might act on it. Jack Butala: It's always worth a talk is what Jill's saying and I agree. Jill DeWit: Yep, and they know too by the way ... and I don't see it as any sign that they are gonna take six years or six months to pull the trigger at this point. Honestly, Chris, I don't care. So, here's a conversation I would do if I were you. Yes, I'm still here. What do you have? And then this is your opportunity for you to go, "In that area, the properties are kinda worth this so I would pay x." And they are either gonna say yes right now or they're gonna think about it, or they're gonna say no.
Dual Escrow Explained (CFFL 583) Transcript: Jack: Jack, Jill here. Jill: Hi. Jack: Welcome to the show today. In this episode, Jill and I talk about dual escrow explained. 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: Okay. Tom asked, "I've got this deal in California. The property is in a trust. Two trustees, husband and wife. Wife contacted me. She wants to sell. Husband no longer alive." Jack: I love how this is written. "Husband no longer alive." Stop. Jill: I know. Jack: "I have the grant deed certificate of death." Stop. Go ahead. Jill: Oh, is that okay? Jack: Yeah I like it. Jill: Alright. "Is that enough to record the new deed in California? If yes, what should this deed look like? Does the name of the deceased husband still have to be on the new deed? Or should I just attach a copy of the death certificate and the affidavit of death of trustee to the deed with a signature of the one person who is still alive, who is the wife?" Mouthful. Jack: So, I can answer this or you can. Jill: Go for it. Jack: So, this is how you need to think of a trust. A trust is an institution. Think of it as a five gallon bucket that can own property. You as an individual can own property. You're an entity. A LLC is an entity that can own property, just like a trust. So, if a trust owns property, like the dead guy's trust, the dead guy's 1987 trust, that's the entity that's going to convey the property. In fact, people put trusts together so they don't have to go through all this malarkey when someone dies. The trust is just the grantor. So, the trust, no matter who's alive, if the trustee is still alive or not, the trust names trustees after people pass away so that they have execution power for this document. Jill: Mm-hmm (affirmative) Jack: So, the trust is going to convey the document as it's written. If some person is dead, you don't need to deal with it at all. It's addressed somewhere in the trust, if I'm understanding this question correctly. Whoever the grantee is, the new person who's going to own the property, the dead guy's 1987 trust conveys to Jill K. Dewitt, an individual, and it's over. You don't have to file any affidavits. You don't have to file any of that stuff. Here's what you're confusing it with, Tom. Mr. and Mrs. Smith, a married couple, own a property in California, and Mr. Smith is dead and just Mrs. Smith is there. Jill: What happened to him? Jack: He died. She killed him slowly. Jill: That's what I was wondering. Jack: She talked him to death. Jill: Oh my gosh, Jack. Jack: She nit, nit, nit, nit all day for 45 years and he died. Jill: Death by words. Jack: He just couldn't get up one day because he just couldn't take it. Jill: You've been telling me that it's going to be death by words. Jack: Good question, by the way. Jill: Thank you. That's a thing now. Jack: So, Mrs. Smith is walking around- Jill: Mr. Smith just stopped eating purposefully. Jack: He fasted in protest. Jill: He did. Jack: A Mrs. Smith protest. Jill: He let his body shut down just to make it stop. Jack: Or maybe Mrs. Smith ... Maybe he talked too much,
How Jack Jill use their Calendar to Succeed (CFFL 582) Transcript: Jack: Jack Jill here. Jill: Hey. Jack: Welcome to the show today. In this episode Jill and I talk about how each of us, how Jack Jill use our calendar to succeed buying and selling real estate. Before we get into it, though, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the LandInvestors.com online community. It's free. Jill: We were Jack and Jill, and now we're Jack Jill. Is this just one word? You just kind of [inaudible 00:00:33]. Jack: Hey, you want to know why it says Jack Jill? Jill: Yeah, why? I was sitting here going, "Hmm." I picked up on it at first and I'm like, "He, did it again." Jack: Because SEO- Jill: Where is Jack Jill? Jack: ... doesn't like the word and. Here's another reason, we are JackJill.com. We are not JackandJill.com. Jill: We should just say, "JackJill.com. Hi, my name is JackJill.com." I'm just kidding. I got it. I was just teasing you, so thank you. All right, Jason asks, "In my most recent marketing campaign I found a landowner who asked me if I could help him finance a land sale to his neighbor. The land owner says that he is too old to do the owner finance, but the buyer's haven't been able to find a bank loan for a subdivided section of his land." Interesting. This is very interesting. "It seems to me that if someone who invested in a promissory note might be interested in that business, but I don't know how to find such an investor. Do you have any advice on what to tell the seller?" Jack: Yeah, there's a website called LoanMLS, L-O-A-N-M-L-S. They have no affiliation with us in any way, but in my spare time I love perusing it because there's a bunch of notes for sale in there. We don't talk about it a lot, but note investing is a fantastic real estate vehicle. You can [crosstalk 00:01:55]. Jill: Yeah, I kind of like that. Jack: Jill and I have personal friends who have made hundreds of millions of dollars buying dramatically reduced loans from banks and financial institutions. You don't buy the property, you buy the mortgage that's underlying it. Think of a house that's got a mortgage on it. It's a 30 year mortgage. They're 15 years into it, and then for whatever reason, the owner's still in the house, the guy who had the mortgage is still in the house, same person, and they stop paying. For whatever reason the bank says, "Hey, this mortgage is for sale. I'll sell it. What's left on the mortgage is $25,000. The house is probably worth 200. I'll let you have the mortgage for 10 grand, what do you say? See if you can get this guy to start paying again." Now you're buying a 200,000 house for 10,000 or you're buying the note associated with it. By the way, you can foreclose on that if you want, depending on the local rules. This whole business of loans and buying the notes and stuff is really a good idea. I've done it several times. We don't do it right now because this other stuff we have is so incredibly profitable. Every once in a while, to the direct point here, Jason, someone calls us and says, "Jack, will you go buy this piece of land for me? Will you pay cash for it? It's $25,000. Sell it to me for $25,000, and I'll pay you over time." That's what's going on here. My answer is no. Not because it's not a great- Jill: It's not our business model right now. Jack: That's it, Jill. Jill: That's it. Jack: You nailed it. Jill: Yeah, it's not crazy. This is not crazy, and I give kudos to the guy for thinking of this and saying, "Since you're calling me maybe you'll do this."
Wholesale Houses: Live 6 Part Online Course (CFFL 581) Transcript: Jack: Jack and Jill here. Jill: Hi. Jack: Welcome to the show. On this episode, Jill and I talk about Wholesaling Houses, our six-part live online course that will be launched in early January. Before we get into that though, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community, it's free. Jill: Alright. Tom asks, "I'm looking to send out my first set of mailers and I have my data, but I'm wondering what advice would you suggest when it comes to scrubbing your data? Also, what advice would you suggest if a person has multiple properties? Do I send out one letter? Do I send out multiple?" Jack: Tom, these are great questions. And they're all questions that I asked myself right before I did my first mailer, and they're all addressed in our Cash-flow from Land education program. But your question's very timely because that program was all prerecorded and kinda been ... You know, video format. We're finding more and more ... and I can see here that you're actually not a member of our group so you don't have access to it ... But we're finding more and more, that this style of learning, for certain people, is better in sort of an online classroom setting where you can ask questions just like this and get a direct answer. Actually, different versions of an answer. That's why there's two of us. You're gonna get Jill's answer and you're gonna get my answer. Which quite often, I don't have to tell you if you listen to the show, aren't that similar. Which is good. Jill: Quite often are not, that's the winner. That's awesome. Jack: Which is good. So scrubbing data ... And pricing data, specifically ... Once you get it, before you send it out in the mail, it's imperative to your success if you ... Pricing if you've listened to any of the stuff that we talk about, it's gonna make or break whether you buy properties. Not only make or break, it's gonna ... 2 or 3,000 unit mailer, you might buy one or two properties, or you might buy 20 or 30 like we do. And so ... This is not our first rodeo. So, while I'm ... The context or the format for me to answer that question about scrubbing data, it's impossible at this format. So, it's art and science, if you know what I mean. Jill: Mm-hmm. Jack: If you have a question, or you'd like to be on the show, reach out to either one of us on landinvestors.com Jill: Can I tag one little thing on this here though? Jack: Sure. Jill: But we do scrub out duplicates because they don't need ... Did you say that? Jack: Uh-uh. Jill: Okay. We do scrub out the duplicates and not send six letters to the same guy, just FYI Tom, just so you know. Because you said one person has multiple properties ... Jack: Let's talk about that for a second. Let's philosophically talk about a person who owns nine houses in a subdivision. What does that tell you about that person Jill? Jill: Hmmm. They might be an investor and a good person to sell to. Jack: Oh my gosh, you're brilliant ... Jill: Yay ... So I'll do that ... Jack: What if they own 19? Jill: Well, then I'd know what they're doing and I'd [crosstalk 00:03:01] definitely want them on my team Jack: Hmmm, I want their phone number. Jill: That's true. So Tom, to answer your first question, yes. We don't send out one letter ... I mean send out multiple ... We send out the one ... And then the B, like Jack just said,
Stay Motivated by Jill (CFFL 580) Transcript: Jack: Jack and Jill here. Jill: Hi. Jack: Welcome to the show today. In this episode, Jill and I talk about staying motivated by Jill. Jill: By Jill. Jack: 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: Okay, Jarrett asked, "In the yellow letter/postcard world, many times I tell you to send out letters seven times to get the best responses. I was wondering if any of you have done multiple mailers with unsolicited offers. If so, have you seen any success with doing that?" Well, first of all, we don't like ... I mean, okay, wait. I let me back up here. That's not the way we roll. We were talking about this a few minutes ago. We actually have not done this because you know why? I mean, we've been doing this so long. We have such a good strike percentage that we don't feel a need to hit the area again. We move onto the next area. So, now, Jack brought up a funny point about the people that might be telling you to send out multiple offers. Do you want to add about that, jack? Jack: Well, yeah. Jill: Multiple letters. Jack: It does [crosstalk 00:01:09] yellow letters thing. There's a website called yellowletters.com. They advocate for handwritten letters to make it look like you hand wrote a letter, like you're some little old lady with a light bulb hanging from a string sitting at a table- Jill: And nothing else to do. Jack: ... innocently. Which, first of all, now you're starting out with a lie. You're starting out with dishonesty. So, I don't advocate that. What Jill's point is, whoever owns Yellow Letters, I really doubt that they've done 15,000 transactions like we have. I question their credibility as a real estate investor. They might be the greatest printers in the world, but for them to say, "We really suggest that you send out seven ... " The fact is this. Repetition in advertising works. You've seen Pepsi and Coke. How many times is it the same car commercial did you see in last week's football game? Over and over again. Jill: We could all talk about the Lincoln commercial. We all know exactly how it's going to go. We know he's going to walk up now and the door's going to open and the Lincoln symbol is going to be on crown. We've all seen that. Jack: In the same commercial over and over again to the point where it's nauseous. It works. These people ... it's been going on since we were all kids. So, repetition in advertising works. I personally can't stand it. So, we don't. To answer your question, have we seen any success doing that? No. We don't teach that and we don't do it. I've never sent a followup mail. The biggest reason is because we've never needed to. Our striking yield percentages on a single offer are extremely high by anybody's standards. So, I've never had to or really even thought about setting up a followup letter campaign. Jill: Well, here's one. Jack: You could try it. Jill: I mean, well, here's one of the things too. When you send out the right letter, like we do, we've had years of tracking this stuff. How do I know? because I still get calls from 2007 from someone that has our letter and we only sent him one. It's very interesting. Jack: [inaudible 00:03:12] they got multiple letters since really '04. Jill: Right. Jack: Why did they call us back? I'll tell you why, because we write a professional business letter- Jill: Bingo. Jack: ... with respect.
Wholesaling SFRs in 2018 by the Numbers Transcript: Jack Butala: Jack and Jill here. Jill DeWit: Hi! Jack Butala: Welcome to the show today and this episode. Jill and I talk about ... Well, it's really me who's gonna talk. Wholesaling SFR's in 2018 by the numbers. How I like it. Jill DeWit: I'm going to try to make it somewhat entertaining. Jack Butala: Before I 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: Okay. Jason asks, "When it comes to selling property, would you recommend letting the seller pay with credit card? If so, what is the best credit card service that you recommend to use and get the best use out of it? Wouldn't it be easier to just completely avoid credit cards?" I think they mean buyer ... Jack Butala: I have so much to say about this. Jill DeWit: 'Cause sellers aren't usually paying. You're paying a seller. So, I'm assuming he means buyers. Jack Butala: Let me be incredibly clear, and I'm not joking around. Jill DeWit: Right. Jack Butala: You absolutely have to take credit cards. Jill DeWit: Yup. Jack Butala: It is a game-changing, business-changing event. If you do not accept credit cards, you're going to lose 80% of your buyers. People are used to buying stuff online and real estate's no different. Jill DeWit: Yup. Jack Butala: Here's the problem. Credit card companies do not like the risk associated with real estate, in fact, they'll cut you off. Until now, Jill and I have spent over a year dealing with a company called Heartland Payment Systems. They are the bank, or processor that's in between Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and credit card companies like Apple Pay, BluePay, Stripe, PayPal, they literally are behind PayPal, so ... Jill DeWit: Now they're behind us. Jack Butala: They're behind us, so Jill and I asked them to develop a department, an individual department to manage the people for real estate. If you call Heartland, you're going to have to go through what we went through ... Jill DeWit: A year- Jack Butala: ... which took a year, or you can call- Jill DeWit: A year and a lot of no's. Jack Butala: We're about to put it on landinvestors.com, instructions on who to call there. On the landinvestors.com website, but if you email either one of us, I'll send you ... In fact, just email me jack@landinvestors.com and I'll just get you pointed to the exact person that they have that's going to handle this, that is handling it for everybody. We've got multiple people per day signing up for this, so ... this is not meant to be a commercial. Honestly, it's just really timely. 40% ... no 60% less than actually Stripe is ... and Stripe is the best. We've been using Stripe for quite some time but they've made it known recently that they do not want to process real estate transactions online, so we think we've solved it. Jill DeWit: Yep. You need to do that. Jack Butala: You need to do it. Jill DeWit: Back to what he's saying. Here's my thing, too- Jack Butala: We don't make any money on this, by the way, we're just trying to help. Jill DeWit: Because you want them to pay online, it's just the easiest thing. Worst case scenario, if you're new and you're starting out, let's put it this way, you're new, you're starting out,
JackJill TV Show Get There First Transcript: Jack Butala: Jack/Jill here. Jill DeWit: Hi. Jack Butala: Welcome to the show. In this episode, Jill and I talk about the Jack/Jill TV show called Get There First. It's in its concept stage. Jill DeWit: Yep. Jack Butala: 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: Yep. Heather asks, "When it comes to advertising of your vacant properties, I was wondering if it was a good idea to do subliminal advertisement." Alright, what does this mean? Is there like a woman with not much clothes on standing off to the side of the property on the lead photo? That's what I think of subliminal. Jack Butala: That's a good idea. Jill DeWit: Whispers, "Buy this land now. Don't ask questions. Just smile. Cash only. Buy, buy. Yes." Or would just try that or stick to the more traditional ways or have you ever tried that at all? Jack Butala: Is this a serious question? Jill DeWit: I'm wondering ... Yes. I'm sure it's not made up. I'm sure it's in ... Jack Butala: I thought it was a joke. Jill DeWit: No. Oh, you really did? Jack Butala: Yeah. Jill DeWit: No, yeah, no. This is ... I promise. My team is ... They would not think to do that. Actually, I think it would be cool if they threw something funny at us, like a zinger, but no, this is a legitimate question. So, no. I would not doing anything like that. It's just my way. I don't think you need to. I think it speaks for itself. Jack Butala: I think we go out of our way in this group- Jill DeWit: To be transparent. Jack Butala: And all of our stuff is to be honest and straightforward with everybody about everything. Jill DeWit: Exactly. Jack Butala: So, no. I don't- Jill DeWit: Whether or not it hurts. Jack Butala: This is actual ... If you're really asking us, Heather, would I suggest that you do this or have I tried it ever at all? The answer is no and no. Jill DeWit: Exactly. Jack Butala: I would never ever try to deceive anybody. If anything, it's the other way around. Are you sure you want to buy this property out there? It's pretty far. Jill DeWit: Right. Jack Butala: And if their answer is, "Yeah, I've had it. I've lived in Manhattan my whole life. I'm sick of it. I don't want to pay rent ever again." Jill DeWit: Dying to go for a hunting property or whatever it is. Jack Butala: Yeah. Then that's the right property. Jill DeWit: Uh-huh. Jack Butala: But if you're going to go out there and expect everything to work right away in a turnkey situation, that's just not how these rural properties are. Jill DeWit: Wait. I have a Heather compliment, though. Heather does get a big star for thinking outside the box here, because that's one thing that we do say is get creative, and I appreciate that. So, Heather was getting creative and really trying to come up with something different. Not sure this is the right one, but that's okay. Keep going. You'll find it. Jack Butala: How could you pull it off? Let's say if we wanted to do subliminal advertising on the Internet. Jill DeWit: I would seriously have a woman i...
Put Yourself In Charge (CFFL 577) Transcript: Jack Butala: Jack and Jill here. Jill DeWit: Hi. Jack Butala: Welcome to the show today, in this episode Jill and I talk about putting yourself in charge. Before we get into that, let's take a question posted by one of our members on a LandInvestors.com online community, it's free. Jill DeWit: Okay. Avery asked, "I'm looking to advertise my properties on social media. I'm wondering, what do you suggest is the best way to use social media to advertise land? Should I just list on my Facebook page or should I send links to my sites, or even possibly links to my Land Pin post? I'm sure you've come up with some best practices, but I'm struggling here." Jack Butala: Okay, this is an incredibly intelligent question, and I'm glad you brought it up because there's a surefire way to do this. And just posting it on your page, your Facebook page, you're not gonna have a lot of luck with that. After you post it on Land Pin, and you have all the statistics correct, that's pone of the real reasons that you put it on Land Pin. That, and property sells there pretty well. What you wanna do is create a Facebook ad, and its not gonna to happen in twenty seconds. Go out on YouTube and learn how to do this. Find a really recent video, where someone way more intelligent than you and me tells you exactly how to post a Facebook ad. This is how people who own, smart people who own, hair salons or local businesses, really, really do well, drive a lot of traffic. Because Facebook, not a lot of people know this, and Twitter and all social media, and Linkedin are geographically based. So, they know where your computer is and the internet knows where your computer is, and the internet knows where your phone is. So if you say, "Hey, I have a piece of property for sale," and you're advertising the actual content of what you're advertising is attractive, the price is cheap, and the picture looks good, and you got the right information in there, it's gonna hit all the people that have expressed an interest fore that kind of thing, where the property is located. And you're gonna sell it most likely overnight. It's a huge secret in the real estate business that people don't talk about. This is how you sell houses and stuff too. Why real estate agents don't do it, I just don't know. When's the last time you went on a Facebook and you saw a piece of real, we're in the real estate business, it's all we talk about. I cannot recall one time where I've seen a house for sale in my neighborhood, and I would love, love to get pounded with that kind of information. I have no interest in buying a Volvo at all, I don't want that kind of advertising and I don't want it in my life, but I love real estate. In fact, I would love to get, where ever my phone goes, like Jill and I do a lot of traveling. I would love to get pounded by stuff for sale all the time in Facebook and social media, so here's a takeaway. Geographically specifically post real estate for sale, and you will sell it very, very, very quickly. Probably that day if its priced right. Jill DeWit: Right, because all you're doing is reaching them, that's it. Jack Butala: Reach, reach, reach. Jill DeWit: Reach reach reach. Its priced right, you gotta reach them. Good question Avery. Jack Butala: Right now, wherever your property is, that you have, or that you're thinking about buying, somebody's dying to buy that property. Your job is to reach them really effectively. By the way, this costs next to nothing. I mean, if you might spend thirty to a hundred dollars on a week long posting in Facebook. If you have a question, or you'd like to be on the show, reach out to either one of us on LandInvestors.com.
Buy and Lease Disasters (CFFL 576) Transcript: Jack Butala: Jack and Jill here. Jill DeWit: Hi there. Jack Butala: Welcome to the show today. In this episode, Jill and I talk about buy and lease disasters. Jill DeWit: Huh? Jack Butala: Why would you put disaster in a title, Jack? Let's find out. 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: Okay. [Bryan 00:00:22] E. asks, "I have a great parcel with two very anxious buyers ready to snatch it up." Jack Butala: I like where this is going. Jill DeWit: Yeah. "The obstacle is that it's not clear as to where the access easement is to the property. I've done my homework, and it turns out that in this particular section all the roads the exist are private and furthermore, about one third of the owners have to overtly, not just peripherally, traverse that neighbor's property to get to theirs. So everyone must traverse some form of private property. [inaudible 00:00:58] their private road owned by an adjacent property owner or an actual usable section of a lot to get to theirs. So here's the kicker," as if that's not enough, "I pulled deeds on most of the properties and none except one mention these easements. Even when someone is clearly traversing someone else's lot." Which by the way we can all see from Google Maps often. "I feel like my options are either a-" Jack Butala: Right. I have to interrupt here for a second. Jill DeWit: What? Jack Butala: I say it a million times, I'm going to say it again. I cannot believe the level of intelligence of our members. Jill DeWit: Oh yeah. It's true. Jack Butala: Thank you, Bryan. Thank you for showing up and taking this seriously. I mean it. This is fantastic question, and I can tell by the way you're writing it out you're going to do well. Jill DeWit: Thank you. Can I go now? Jack Butala: Yeah. You mean leave the show? Jill DeWit: Yeah, I know. Can I finish? Jack Butala: Yeah. Jill DeWit: Okay. Alright, so here's Bryan's options, he thinks. There's three. "A, pay $400 to find a good title company to find a title that mentions easements, but I doubt that they will find anything. B, the owner can record a deed with the access road with the neighbor, but they'll have to pay more for someone to access the owner. Or C, tell the owner that they can do whatever everyone else is doing," [inaudible 00:02:25] is a new buyer, "and arrange it with a handshake and access road with a neighbor as I understand that after five years without an objection, it isn't an easement in this area. What are your thoughts?" Jack Butala: Okay. Jill DeWit: I know what mine is. Jack Butala: We have the same thought. Go ahead, Jill. Jill DeWit: C. Jack Butala: D. I'm going to give you a D option. Jill DeWit: Oh, D? I'm with C. A D, keep your head down. Jack Butala: This is what Jill and I do. Jill DeWit: Don't talk to anyone and just do it. That's my usual answer. Jack Butala: That's good advice for everybody. Just take the pain. Jill DeWit: Just don't draw any attention to it, you'll probably slide right by. Jack Butala: In with the crowd, out with the crowd. Jill DeWit: Yes.
