Great! You’re learning a lot of new information and we expect questions. The best place to go for questions is Discord. This is our online learning community. It is very active, and many of your questions are probably already on there. Feel free to sign up with an account (it’s free!) and post your questions in the forums. You can also ask these questions on the weekly member calls that you are invited to as part of your membership. This is your time to ask any questions to Jack and Jill in an open forum Q&A setting.
We are committed to your success and want to make sure you are satisfied with our products. We do also offer a buy-out option for the Membership program contract. If you are unsatisfied for any reason, our first step is to work together to get you what you need to ensure we meet your expectations. Simply email us at support@landacademy.com. For details on this and more, please read our LandAcademy and Customer Mutual Agreement Terms and Conditions.
Member Call
We hold a live, free, weekly call for all Land Academy members. Every week Jack and Jill are there to share successes, cover hot topics, and provide extensive Q&A support. They are audio and visual along with visual aids. Go to zoom.us a few minutes early to log in.
Every Thursday at 2pm Pacific Time for Land Academy members.
The weekly member call is open to all active Members. If you are interested in purchasing the program but haven’t yet, it’s possible to obtain a one-time invite to listen in on a call by submitting a request HERE.
Each member is provided access for one login. Of course, we understand you may have a partner or spouse involved and we welcome them to listen in with you, so long as they are all on your account logged in as the account holder, such as on a conference call.
Absolutely. All calls are recorded and made available to members in Land Investors in the “Member Calls” area. Recorded calls post the next day.
If you have a specific technical issue, contact zoom.us. They have a team that can troubleshoot very quickly and get you on the call.
Within the call, make sure that you are connected to the audio but that your microphone is muted. To communicate, simply type comments or questions into the text box on the right side of your screen, and make sure that it is directed to everyone. If Jack and Jill determine that your topic fits the flow of the call and should be discussed further, they might ask you to unmute yourself and talk with them! Otherwise, they will read questions from the text box out loud and answer as many as they can.
Membership & Tools
Land Academy membership is a monthly subscription service that provides you with access to the real estate data the pros use along with deeply discounted mail services. It includes DataTree access, DeedPerfect access (generate deeds instantly and automatically), Parcelfact discount, mailer discount, and Discord access. In addition, it comes with advanced level support via weekly calls, property discounts, and deal opportunities.
Once enrolled in LA Membership, you’ll receive instant access to your Land Academy Dashboard. All logins and the educational programs can be found there.
When you first sign up, you will be charged for your first month. Every month thereafter the monthly subscription fee will be automatically charged to the card you provided at the time of sign up. When you sign up, you agree to a twelve month contract. More details can be found in the terms and conditions.
All of the instruction needed can be found in the program. Membership is the collection of tools we use to purchase undervalued property. Like all tools, they come with instructions. The instructions are within the Land Academy programs. Only with that foundation can DataTree, bulk mail printing, and the other benefits of membership be effective. If you follow the videos online, Jack shares his screen and shows exactly how to pull lists and what options he selects. He goes over all of the optimal settings and information that pertains to what we teach at Land Academy. We’ve even had members who play the video on a screen next to them so they can pause and follow along and complete each step. There is a lot of information in there from students who have gone through the same thing (and us at Land Academy) and have shared their tips, steps, and even screenshots and videos. If you search key a word like “DataTree” it brings up all pertinent postings. For example, this posting has a lot of information from some of our most successful students when they were just starting out with membership, and there are even videos posted and various tips and tricks. Feel free to post your own questions too! There is also a lot of information on YouTube and other places online if you want even more resources.
If you have problems with the data, the quickest solution is to contact the data vendor directly and to utilize all of the great information available within the data site. They have teams in place that can help you with most of your issues. They are the most knowledgeable since they work directly for the vendor, and are standing by waiting for calls so they will definitely provide the fastest solution. From technical issues to more specific questions to “How do I do…?” questions, they should always be your first point of contact. Also, review the basics from your Land Academy Education Programs. Many of your potential questions are covered in there, so make sure you review the sections you might be having issues with. LandInvestors.com is the next option for questions on the data because many members are actively using the data every day and can offer very helpful input. Search for questions similar to your own, and if you can’t find anything then feel free to post for help.
The problem with this is rooted in Excel’s automatic conversion from ACSII delimited data to scientific formatting and then back to currency. To fix this, import the ASCII data from DataTree into a .CSV file and NOT a .XLS file. Never convert to .XLS during the entire data dump to mailer process in Colorado.
Both are found in the same excel document located in your member dashboard. From the Member Dashboard navigate to Tools, then click the Templates button and download our Equity Planner.
DeedPerfect
Our members who use DeedPerfect.com to complete their own deeds frequently ask some version of this question: I’m completing my deed and its says: “For good and valuable consideration of Ten Dollars ($10.00), the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged,” I or we…
“Consideration” in US legal terms is quite simply “something of value,” usually money. Believe it or not, we have seen “For love and affection” the receipt and sufficiency of which… and it is construed as valid “consideration.” It really was recorded.
In exchange for something of value, we are conveying this property to you.
The fact is this: You may include 1 (one) dollar, 10 (ten) dollars, or the actual price of the property and they are all acceptable the same way love and affection is acceptable as they are all “Good and Valuable Consideration.”
The actual price is not included on the deed simply for privacy reasons.
It’s rooted in tradition. 10 dollars has become the norm over 100s of years of property conveyance.
This day and age it’s simple (and legally required public knowledge) to find out any given property sale price. Back in the day, the deed was the only recorded document on county file to acknowledge the transfer of real property and laws and customs varied widely.
