There's something called pre-purchase home inspections and due diligence. I guess Altman has never heard of such things.

[MoneyOOST]

That's a pretty nice house for running a non profit organization👍

[hppavilionf]

Everyone acts like a home inspection catches everything; it doesn't. Plenty of homes don't have issues until a few months or years later.

Why didn't he do home inspection?

[oluwaseyiorifunmishe]

The lady looks like Monica in Silicon Valley😂

[bobertrobertson]

Wow thought he was all about effective altruism

This explanation makes so much sense for me. Personally, I am moving from CA to FL this year, where I can pay much less for a house. Same thing for my parents and a few of their friends who moved to FL in the last couple years. All retired buyers.

27 million dollar home. I wonder if he used union worker 🤔🤔. Wouldn't be surprised to hear this was a non union job.

[SamOlof-nvvo]

Monica from Silicon Valley now works at cnbc? Lol

Actually AI can inspect your phone with GPT 4 Vision.

[ilooi]

OH man.. i`m so so so sad for Altman. You won't believe how sad I am.

[FuzzFace]

All developers now are hacks. There hasn’t been honest quality craftsmanship for a generation in North America. But ultimately that house is cheap. 27 million is a probably less than a fraction of a percent of his net worth. For everyone else their home IS their net worth.

[DunDun-e]

Prepare for an visual inspection and recognition AI bordering on AGI in this specific field in the next few years. I am all for it

[webdeveloper]

May be this guy should have chatgpted pre purchase home inspections list. Atleast now he should ask chatgpt on how to hire a good lawyer

[zt]

Imagine telling people the house is more valuable because celebrities snorted coke in it prior to selling lmfao

[MrMcgooOG]

Maybe allow the homeless sleep in the wellness cabin.

[VegasVaron]

Dumb for not hiring a home inspector before This is supposed to be a smart person?

[MH-mttr]

Yes, because it was built by one of those Mexicans named Jose, Carlos, Fernando 🤣.

[Mostly_bad]

Justin is the least smart guy in the biz!

[ThePresentFuture]

This is what's wrong with San Francisco. Homelessness, poop on streets
and now billionaires can't get a decent $27m home. What is happening?
