They need to do a related story on all the spam calls about buying my house. It’s insane the number I get.

The calls have died down for me because I screen my calls. For me the problem is all of the scammy postal mail.

> Are you interested in an offer on your house?

Yes, how much?

> How much are you looking for?

Wait what do you think the word “offer” means?

> Can you tell me about the house?

Are you trying to make an offer on a house you haven’t even looked up on Zillow?

> We need to know if it’s been renovated

Yeah I removed all the bathrooms and added 10 bedrooms
