How to set your Offer and Sale Price
Jill DeWit: Welcome to the Cash Flow From Land show. In this episode, Steve and I talk about how to price your land when you buy it, when you sell it, and everything in between. Welcome, Steve. How is everything going in your land world?
Jack Butala: It's fantastic, Jill, as always.
Jill DeWit: Or your e-mail world?
Jack Butala: Well, I was going to ask you that, actually. I think you had some e-mail trouble yesterday?
Jill DeWit: Oh, no. Nothing I couldn't tackle.
Jack Butala: [inaudible 00:00:25] awesome.
Jill DeWit: Even when I called you at ten o'clock at night, almost in tears.
Jack Butala: On Saturday night.
Jill DeWit: Oh my gosh, about to rip GoDaddy's head off.
Jack Butala: I don't think there was almost anything about the tears. You were in tears.
Jill DeWit: I was. I really, really was. Oh my gosh. I don't think that guy believed me when I said I had been working on this since four o'clock. At that point, it was after nine and we weren't done.
Jack Butala: Hey, the reason I brought this in, I wrote it into the show, is because sometimes no matter how much equity you have or ... There's only a very small percentage of people that can just say, "Yeah, I'm not going to deal with any problem I come across in my little company."
Jill DeWit: Right.
Jack Butala: You just have to spend til ten o'clock on Saturday once in a while, no matter who you are and how far you are with whatever you're doing.
Jill DeWit: Oh my goodness.
Jack Butala: To get it done, right?
Jill DeWit: Yes. You know, I was talking to my daughter about that this morning. I said, "Trust me, there are much better things I'd rather be doing on a Saturday night than ... I wanted to be out goofing off too, but it needed to get done. There's times you just have to make some sacrifices." That was the whole conversation. It was not about her, it was actually about someone that she works with, who works for her. Making sacrifices sometimes when you really ... Yeah, we all want to be goofing off, but it needed to get done.
Jack Butala: Right.
Jill DeWit: That was it. It was so funny because part of my frustration is I'm sitting over and the guy, he could hear me, I'm heavily [marking 00:01:57] things on my desk. I explained what I did, "I am right now crossing off everything I had written down that I was going to tackle tonight and get done on my way home, because none of it is going to happen. It's all going to move to my Sunday list." It was really funny.
Jack Butala: Well, maybe we can make up for it on a Wednesday, because that's what's nice about this business model, we can do it pretty much whenever we want.
Jill DeWit: That's true, yeah. Sorry, you put me right back in that mindset. Sorry. You know what? It's still fresh in my mind. I'm still a little hurt. Not hurt, but I'm still a little worn out from the whole e-mail mess event, which is now resolved, thank you very much. The point is: yeah, I stayed late on a Saturday night, because why? Because I'm taking off Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, by the way.
Jack Butala: You're taking off what?
Jill DeWit: Because I can, so there you go. I didn't have to save up sick time, I don't have comp time, any of that. Yep. All right. That's enough about me. What's going on with you?
Jack Butala: I've been paying an incredible amount of time to my listen...
