<prompt> Human: Made an account just for this, since I generally lurk.I found someone wanting to sell one of their properties. Its a home thats in need of some love, but could eventually be something nice.I just went to see it this morning. Now Im not exactly a home expert, so I will definitely have various professionals come and check it out first. Now heres the good part.Before I was about to depart, he explains that he would need to gift the house to me as he is undergoing a chapter 13. Essentially, he would be looking to have me write a check after the house was gifted.My first instinct was that a chapter 13 had to do with divorce, since he kept talking about how icy things were with his ex? wife. A quick google tells me it has to do with bankruptcy.Hes looking for 5k for the house. My gut is telling me something is off about this. Im not seeking legal advice! I realize thats against the rules of this subreddit. Im looking for more of a what can go wrong in this case scenario. Proscons, unforeseen taxes or other pitfalls.. Basically anything.edit: words  <response>: They will see that he tried to hide the asset and you both will get in legal trouble.
