We had someone measure it, and they found it to be 1,350 square feet.Even if the measurement was a bit off and the actual square footage is 1,400 square feet, that still means the house is 300 square feet less than what was listed.So, who bears responsibility for this mistake?

@Gabriel Borrego if your looking for the actual specifc steps to invest in a specific strategy, I built a platform that helps users get started and it has the steps to begin investing in the basic strategies but I could put it into a Google document list or something like that if you are looking at a specific strategy?
