0:41.3	Aoo! That we have a bonus episode. So here we go. Our first question is, quote,
0:48.3	Recently, I put my home on the market as I found my dream home in another town. I had two open houses this weekend and was surprised to hear from my realtor that at least
0:57.6	seven groups of neighbors showed up.
0:59.7	No one notified me that they were going to do this and I'm a bit miffed.
1:03.2	Everyone has my phone number and email address and it feels like since they weren't anonymous

2:00.4	Happy to sell my house to you.
2:01.5	Sure.
2:01.9	But that's not this.
2:02.9	If they were looking to buy a house. Oh, have had it. Happy to sell my house to you. Sure. But that's not this.
