 PLEASE NOTE:

 Answer herewith: Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC requests to have legal opinion be filed after 2nd Comment Letter and the Qualification
 Thereof, thereafter. Asset Manager and CEO Michael Gilmore is running into problems with attorneys to issue a legal opinion since they
 did not personally prepare the Offering. Over 20 have turned me down. After the 2nd Comment Letter and/or Qualification, I pray to have
 an Attorney to issue a legal opinion.

 As I have explained to Attorneys that have rejected to do business with me appertaining to the Offering, 17.11(a)(i) specifically states,
 As having prepared, certified a report or evaluation, whether or not for use in connection with the Offering Statement. Therefore,
 Attorneys are allowed to certify or evaluate a report regarding this Offering, whether they prepared it or not.
