I have owned three houses. And been married to two women.
Just not all at the same time.
My max was two houses - for a couple of months. (My dead mother’s and my own. Hers was paid for, but in far-off Findlay, Ohio, and I had no way to stay there and keep my job…)
12 houses worth over $12 million? Man, that guy must be some kind of elitist rich guy.
