Tony Robinson:

My house in Louisiana, all of you know about it, it is under contract for a third time right now, and feels like we’re inching closer to actually being able to close this one. We just got the buyer’s request for repairs, so we’re giving them a credit for that. I think the appraisal has come back already above…
