They lose money on Zestimates. The purpose of Zillow is collect your personal information and sell it to real estate agents as possible leads.

Sounds like a day in the life!

Lol it was mostly good, yeah.

I guess this is why
Your home is in a “non-disclosure” state (Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, New Mexico, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming

thats a new thought.

Be very careful what you put in a trust for him. If you weren't here anymore, he would collect SSI to help with living expenses. He would be allowed to have the trust and still collect SSI. HOWEVER, because SSI would pay some of his living expenses, they would govern the trust. SsI would help with his expenses and the trust would be used for things welfare won't cover. I don't mean to throw a wrench in, but out of experience I will tell you that can be a very serious head ache.

He gets disability ss already. Does that count? oh, and thank you

 

[lovesfarms]

he doesnt.

SsD (federal) payments go up when cost of living goes up. SSI (state/local) figures out how much his cost of living-fuel/rent etc) is and how much he earns( including his SSD payments) and they will cover that. Including food. The trust can only be used for anything that doesn't fit in that category. Like home improvement, trips, pleasure.

Yes it is just an estimate. It also shows what other houses have sold for in your area. People can get all your info many ways. The county recorder is public knowledge. You can see who owns any house.

If on the JD mower yes as it has a cup holder for my insulated mug. I usually come in often and fix a cold glass of electrolyte water is tilling or other work in the garden.
