Transcript:

Steven Butala:                   Steve and Jill here.

Jill DeWit:                            Hello.

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 southern California.

Steven Butala:                   Today, Jill and I talk about how to start your own Internet show. And as Jill said right before this show, and every other show-

Jill DeWit:                            What do you mean?

Steven Butala:                   What the hell is this all about?

Jill DeWit:                            What do you want to talk about?

Steven Butala:                   What does this mean, Internet show? What are you talking about?

Jill DeWit:                            Why would I tell someone to do that?

Steven Butala:                   As if to say-

Jill DeWit:                            It's a lot of work.

Steven Butala:                   "This title that you've written, Steve, is silly, and it doesn't make any sense to most of the people who are listening to it, including your co-host."

Jill DeWit:                            I did not say that at all. You know that.

Steven Butala:                   To which my answer is, well, just like the weekly show that you just started, Jill, you're very qualified to be the co-host on this episode.

Jill DeWit:                            All right.

Steven Butala:                   You just started a show.

Jill DeWit:                            All right, well-

Steven Butala:                   What does it take?

Jill DeWit:                            I will talk about it.

Steven Butala:                   Before we get into it ... Like, it's an interview.

Jill DeWit:                            Okay, we'll talk about it.

Steven Butala:                   First, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community. It's free, and as you're listening or watching us on YouTube, please drop your questions into the comment section below.

Jill DeWit:                            [Britain 00:01:11] asks, "I have a response on a parcel, but it has an HOA, Homeowners Association, with an annual fee. Does anyone have any guidance on how the fees affect the purchase price? Obviously it's better to have none, but at what point does it actually affect people wanting to purchase a property, and more importantly, the purchase price? The parcel I'm considering is $100 a year, which basically maintains the roads and the gates in the area. This is for a 10-acre parcel. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance."

Jill DeWit:                            Well, my first thought is, pretty darn cheap for the roads and everything. I wouldn't have a problem with that at all. When it starts to be $300 a month, now you've got to think about this, because your carrying costs every month are ... You know, how long it takes to sell. Someone's gonna have to pay that $300, and they can add up quickly. So, just know what you're getting into. That's my point here.

Jill DeWit:                            And, you know? I personally like that there's roads. You know, you have access. Someone taking care of it. For me, that makes a property worth a little bit more. Someone might not want that, but that's ... You know, you're marketing it as it is, and the right buyer is gonna find it.

Steven Butala:                   I mean, this concept of HOA ... Or LOA, Landowners Association ...
