Does the law of Bar Metzra apply when selling the property to a woman? Must the seller consult with the Bar Metzra neighbor prior to selling the property to a woman?
 style="text-align: justify"&gt;No, if the woman is single. The law of Bar Metzra does not apply towards a single woman buyer. Accordingly, there is no need for the seller to consult with his Bar Metzra neighbor prior to selling the property to a single woman, whether she was never married, or is a divorcee, or is a widow. When selling to a married woman, the law of Bar Metzra applies unless the woman is known to have her own assets and not that of her husbands.
