  1. Do you have to show the house during COVID allowing strangers in your living space who are potentially COVID carriers ? It makes since to me that the one living in the house should be able to be protected from contracting the virus until the country is declared clear of covid and it’s vairents. this is an unusual situation.

  2. People getting married should watch these types of videos….but don’t. Anyone can get the marriage experience without saying "I do" by buying a random strange a house. That’s actually cheaper. In an actual marriage you have to throw in a car and monthly payment for years as your ex shacks up with her new squeeze. I dated a woman in LA who was very clear marriage was out because that would terminate her alimony. The house she got in the divorce had appreciated more than $600k while the guy paid mortgage payments and rented a crap apartment. I can see why the suicide rate for men is so high during divorce.

  3. Excellent video, really appreciate the free legal advice. Going to contact my current lawyer with some questions.
    Thank you
