Linda Fein backed out of the purchase of a beautiful mid-century modern home in Paradise Valley, Arizona, after learning the luxury home had been the setting for a pornographic business for several years. The four bedroom, three and a half bath home was listed for $2.2 million by owners Kevin and Sandra Otterson, known by their fans as Hubby and Wifey.

The married couple had run their pornographic website from their home for nearly 20 years, and had posted pictures and videos of their adventures on their social media pages, such as Facebook and Twitter. The duo had some 367,000 followers on Twitter alone. Fein says she couldn’t bring herself to buy a home whose reputation she felt had been stained by the activities of the previous owners.

“I can’t make Thanksgiving dinner on a counter that a porn star has been lounging around on,” said Fein. She says while the activities of the previous owners might not bother some buyers, she felt at that high of a price point it would have been a courtesy to let potential buyers know about the owners antics. Fein had negotiated the price to $1.8 million for the 4,172 square foot home. The home has a pool, had recently been updated, and has amazing views of the Camelback and Mummy Mountains. Still, for Fein, the past history of the house negated everything positive the house had to offer.

Officials for the Arizona Department of Real Estate says there is no statute that requires sellers to disclose pornographic activities to potential buyers during a home sale. There are several things that Arizona does require to be disclosed during a home sale, but pornography is not one of them. Homeowners must disclose if a home has been the location of a death, whether natural, homicide, or suicide. They must also disclose if the home has been occupied by someone diagnosed with HIV or AIDS, and they must disclose if the home is located in the vicinity of a convicted sex offender. None of those regulations applied to the Ottersons.

The Otterson’s were also scrutinized and received backlash in 2006 when they bought land in a Scottsdale community where they planned to build a house. Although neighbors were outraged, the activities of the couple were still not illegal.

Fein says while she is sure the home will sell to someone else, she will continue to be on the lookout for the perfect home. She made the discovery about the sellers after her real estate agent mentioned the couple were in the entertainment industry. She says she dug in deeper to find out what they did in the entertainment industry and discovered the disturbing truth about the home she had almost bought.

Pictures in the real estate listing for the home clearly show the same rooms that Fein saw on the Otterson’s social media profiles, something that she says helped her and her husband decide the home wasn’t for them. They say that obviously, with the laws in place in Arizona, it is up to the buyers to do their own research on the history of a home before making a purchase.
