Steven Butala:
Steve and Jill here.
Jill Dewit:
Hi.
Steven 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 Scottsdale, Arizona.
Steven Butala:
Today, Jill and I talk about ... really, I talk about web scraping for accurate mailer pricing. Jill adds some flair to it.
Jill Dewit:
Truth time. This was my topic. I love this.
Steven Butala:
You like web scraping?
Jill Dewit:
Yes. I just said, "Can we please talk about this? I just can't talk about it enough." I think this is the greatest thing. Ever since I've learned this trick, I do it for everything. I web scrape to make sure I'm buying the right mascara, hair products.
Steven Butala:
You know what? Friday, tomorrow's Jack Thursday.
Jill Dewit:
Okay, got it. Do I get a Friday? Oh, I get my ... okay.
Steven Butala:
On Friday, it's Jill Friday. So much fun looking at our properties, so you can talk about-
Jill Dewit:
Okay. I can talk about that. Oh darn. Okay.
Steven Butala:
Yeah, so taking the [crosstalk 00:01:03]
Jill Dewit:
Fine. I'll let you have web scraping this time. I might roll that into mine on Friday.
Steven 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. Oh, and if you're already a member, you should join us on Discord. Seriously, I'm not joking. It cracks me up that a lot of people in our group aren't on Discord. That is 50% of the education value of being in Land Academy is Discord.
Jill Dewit:
It gets distracting though, because I mean, we have that, and then we have the land investors online community. Both are great. Both are great. Okay.
Steven Butala:
What I'm noticing since we started the Discord thing is that the people on land investors are all not in our group. Even though there are a lot of people that answer questions on land investors that are in our group, but the questions are from new people that are not yet members, but all the real questions and education goes on in Discord.
Jill Dewit:
Understood. Hello, Bobbie. Bobbie wrote, "Still new here and getting my bearings. First off blessings to you all, Steven and Jill and the entire Land Academy team." Thank you, Bobbie.
Steven Butala:
That's nice. I never get tired of hearing that.
Jill Dewit:
Aww. She says, "Thank you for creating such an amazingly helpful community and offering so much of yourselves to all of us. After a lot of research I have yet to stumble across this info. I just wanted to find out what's typical with regard to the purchase agreement when selling land. Is it as simple as using the same purchase agreement to buy it? If so, do you all have suggestions on any necessary modifications when converting the agreement? Thanks in advance." I use the same one.
Steven Butala:
Same one.
Jill Dewit:
It doesn't really matter.
Steven Butala:
If you go to offers, the number 2, owners.com, and you go to forums-
Jill Dewit:
Forums.
Steven Butala:
... This is all free and it's all open to the public. Click on purchase agreement, and whether you're in the group or not, you can use it to buy and sell real estate, and here's why. Jill and I just bought a house. We're going to flip it, but it's an extremely expensive high-end house that Jill got for an amazing price. I have never ... And we got a mortgage on it, because it was less than 3%, because I couldn't make the math work otherwise.
Steven Butala:
I have never signed so many documents in my life. I bet we signed our names-
Jill Dewit:
Tell me. I know. A hundred times.
Steven Butala:
... probably a hundred times. You know how many times we sign that purchase agreement when we buy and sell land? Once, and the seller or buyer signs it once.
Jill Dewit:
Right. I sign that, I sign off on one-
Steven Butala:
So it's just my way of sticking my middle finger up to real estate agents and the lawyers behind them.
