S2, Episode 3: "On the Fence"

Starting in 1906, the editors of the Forward answered reader questions in a column called “A Bintel Brief,” Yiddish for “a bundle of letters.” Now, we're bringing Bintel into a new era. Welcome to Season 2 of “A Bintel Brief,” the Jewish advice podcast. This episode takes us to a town with a hot real estate market, and a listener whose neighbor plans to sell his home. Two acquaintances have asked for a leg up getting in touch with the seller, and “On the Market” is torn about how best to respond. Listen to Ginna and Lynn’s advice, plus a letter from the archive and real estate advice from the Talmud.
