Initially the male party indicated he wished to look at several properties in Wellesley and insisted on working with a female realtor.

This made the employees uncomfortable, but they allowed the male party to go into the conference room and look over some properties that were available. The male party stayed in the conference room for over an hour and eventually began unpacking a large suitcase he had with him in the conference room.

Additionally Officer Wall contacted the Council of Aging to see if there are other resources or services available for the family.
