He’s not buying the homes. He’s buying the chometz that is in the homes.

Chinuch..

Where is this idea that he owns the buildings or houses?
He can סך הכל enjoy the Chametz in the cabinets….

Honestly, such a kind man.
I was overwhelmed one day at the register in empire kosher – it can be so intense there, he was like: ma’am, take your time. Dont worry about the people.
Kind man.
