Real Estate is Better Than...

Transcript: 

Jack Butala:                         Jack and Jill here.

Jill DeWit:                            Hello.

Jack Butala:                         Welcome to the Jack Jill Show, entertaining real estate investment talk. I'm Jack Butala.

Jill DeWit:                            And I am Jill DeWit, broadcasting from sunny Southern California.

Jack Butala:                         Today, Jill and I talk about real estate is better than ...

Jill DeWit:                            Dot, dot, dot.

Jack Butala:                         So much better than, I think, any other investment vehicle.

Jill DeWit:                            Well, you know, I was looking at the reverse. I was looking at this way, too. What is better than real estate? If you look at it like that, it's pretty hard to come up with anything.

Jack Butala:                         I have a lot to say about this in the meat of the show.

Jill DeWit:                            Okay. I gotcha.

Jack Butala:                         Before we get into the meat of the show, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the JackJill.com online community. It's free.

Jill DeWit:                            Okay, Luke says, "I started selling land at about six a.m. today and stayed on the phones until 2:30 to go get the kids. I tallied up the sales, and sold just over $45,000.00 in land from $500.00 to $5,000.00 properties. No big money deals, just bread and butter. Solid sales all day. It's fun. One lady was screaming, happy to buy some land in Northern Arizona. She called to ask me some questions. There were police ..." Oh.

Jack Butala:                         This going so good.

Jill DeWit:                            Oh, I'm sorry. I realized now, he's really wrote exactly how he wanted this to go. So, let me back up. I apologize. "She called to 'acts' me some questions. There were police sirens in the background of the whole call. She had to get her kids out of the city. Been on YouTube, studying home steading, saw my videos, picked out some land, and can't believe she's doing it. Then, she started crying, hugging her kids. Very emotional. Very cool [crosstalk 00:01:49]"

Jack Butala:                         I love that. You can't make this stuff up.

Jill DeWit:                            "Can't wait any longer. She's going for it." I hear that kind of story almost daily. "People used to escape debt, taxes, and religious oppression by escaping to America. Now, they are fleeing the cities and going off the grid."

Jack Butala:                         We're having that exact same experience, Luke. Exactly.

Jill DeWit:                            "We have great technology to do it, and with our phones ... all the answers are just a search away. I hope you guys are selling lots of land, too. We'll keep sending mail, and see what more land I can find. Recent mailers, most callers have never gotten an offer before. Very encouraging."

Jack Butala:                         Luke, I'm so happy and proud of you on your success. Luke was one of our original members. This is Luke Smith, and I'm going to plug his YouTube channel, because it's truly amazing. He's sky rocketed way surpass us, which makes me a little jealous, but it's good.

It's called, Rural Vacant Land, Luke Smith. If you go on YouTube, he has really, really valuable mailer/instructional videos on how to send the mail out, and the whole thing. If you're interested at all in this, in what we talk about here, you're not just entertained-

Jill DeWit:                            Right.

Jack Butala:                         But you're actually also interested. His channel is really helpful.

Jill DeWit:                            I know. Luke is great. Luke is one of our members. Luke learned from us, and it's his way of paraphrasing and describing what we do. So, it's the same thing. I mean,
