Jack Butala: Jack Butala with Jill DeWit. Jill DeWit: Hi. Jack Butala: Welcome to our show today. In this episode Jill and I talk about buying cheap land, and it's actually getting easier as technology is more prevalent, but what isn't? Who doesn't benefit from technology? I'm not sure. It's much, much easier to buy property these days than it was ten or fifteen years ago. Before we get into it though, let's hear some funny stuff from Jill. Jill DeWit: All right, this is so good. This is hilarious. Two days ago I'm reaching out to ... I like to do this sometimes, we have people that do this, but I came along and I was making some out calls for people that had reached out and expressed some interest, good interest in some of our properties. I thought it would be kind of fun to follow up with some people and see if they're really going to make an offer or just see what questions they have. We're really good about putting everything in the posting, but still, people seem to want to talk sometimes. Anyway, I pick up the phone and I call. It's like a Pennsylvania number, something like that. Anyway, the phone's ringing, this guy answer the phone and he says, "I don't think you want me." I'm like, "Hi. My name is Jill. I am from LandStay and I'm following up on a call." He's like, "Oh my goodness." Jack Butala: No reason to argue with this one. That's awesome. Jill DeWit: Oh totally. He's like, "I thought you were somebody else. They've actually called me back three times now and I assumed it them calling again." I said, "Totally got that." It was so funny, he goes, "You know, I'm just finishing up something right now. Can you can call me in five minutes?" I said, "Sure," so I waited and I called him back, and poor guy, I'm sure he just had to compose himself and go, "Oh I can't believe I just did that." I called him back after that and we just had a good laugh. It was so funny. Jack Butala: Did he ask you on a date? Jill DeWit: No. Jack Butala: Obviously he was done with that one. Jill DeWit: Yeah right. He's done with that relationship. It was so funny, but the guy was so embarrassed. I would have liked to make him more of a joke, but it's all good. You know, we've had those ... Everybody's had those little situations. I've never answered the phone like that but, it was just so darn funny. It was cute. Then I ... Actually I ended up email ... He's in our world now. I emailed him back some information about it and he replied and- Jack Butala: He's never going to forget that. Jill DeWit: - said thank you again. Oh no. He'll never forget this. Jack Butala: Neither will I. Jill DeWit: Exactly. Jack Butala: What's his first name? Jill DeWit: I don't remember. Jack Butala: If he becomes a member, I'm going to call him out on the weekly call, on the call out. Jill DeWit: Oh my gosh. Jack Butala: Oh it was for land. Jill DeWit: It was for land. Jack Butala: Oh okay. Jill DeWit: Well you know what's funny about that, and this is what happens often. As we're talking, and I'm talking about this property for sale, and he's asking about other property for sale and I said, "Well you know, I happen to know a lot of people by the way with a lot of property for sale, so here are," I directed him where to go because I'm like, in our world, with our people, we all advertise. Just because he may not like my property in that same county, one of our members or people will have something that might work great for him. What goes around comes around. We all help each other and market stuff together and do that together.
