Transcript:

Steven Butala:                   Steve and Jill here.

Jill DeWit:                            Good day.

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 our most successful members have this in common, and it's not just one thing.

Jill DeWit:                            Good, because I have like four.

Steven Butala:                   I know, and I don't know what yours are and I bet ours are pretty similar in this topic.

Jill DeWit:                            I have good looking ...

Steven Butala:                   That disqualifies me.

Jill DeWit:                            Good hair, let's see here. I have they're nice. I ... Just kidding.

Steven Butala:                   You know what's really funny about that, Jill? Those are real serious priorities for a lot of people, especially out here in Hollywood.

Jill DeWit:                            Oh, gosh.

Steven Butala:                   What do you mean I can't do this? I'm good looking.

Jill DeWit:                            Oh my goodness. YOu know, there's a ... That's so great-

Steven Butala:                   That's a crackup.

Jill DeWit:                            Wait a minute. I hate to poke fun of these people/however, let's cut to the chase. There's a large group of people in the real estate industry that I swear they go at it, it's all about how they look, what they wear, and what they drive. Am I correct? And they think that if I have the Lexus and the nice suit, my hair's done, my nails are perfect-

Steven Butala:                   Yeah.

Jill DeWit:                            ... I am going to be killing in this industry.

Steven Butala:                   They think that they're going to sell a house because of that.

Jill DeWit:                            Exactly.

Steven Butala:                   Or that it's actually even a contributing factor.

Jill DeWit:                            What the heck? Exactly.

Steven Butala:                   There's a show on Netflix-

Jill DeWit:                            You know what?

Steven Butala:                   Did you see this?

Jill DeWit:                            No. You know what, though? I was just thinking about, I would like an agent to show up and take me out in her okay car, began busy, and killing it. Oh, and by the way, she's carrying around stuff to clean and stage a house in her trunk, because she walks in and makes it perfect every time she has an open house. And she's got cookies ready to bake. That's the person I want to work with.

Steven Butala:                   This is brilliant. We need to talk about this right now.

Jill DeWit:                            Okay.

Steven Butala:                   I would love for a real estate agent to pick us, Jill and I up-

Jill DeWit:                            Yep.

Steven Butala:                   ... in a market where we're thinking about buying a house-

Jill DeWit:                            Yep. Yeah.

Steven Butala:                   ... for our primary residence. I would love for that real estate agent's assistant, personal assistant because they're so busy-

Jill DeWit:                            Yep.

Steven Butala:                   ... driving the car.

Jill DeWit:                            Yeah.

Steven Butala:                   And I would love for the real estate agent to constantly be saying to us, "I'm so, so sorry, but I have to take this call because we're closing on something today."

Jill DeWit:                            That's good.

Steven Butala:                   "I'm so sorry this has to happen, but I've got to close on this. We're just about at this house and I'm going to tell you a little bit about this m...
