Section: Questions Category: Halacha | Halacha - chometz | | Submitted by anonymous Answered by Rav Peretz Moncharsh | | Question: if someone is not home for pesach and the whole house is sold is there a need for bedikas chometz
| | Answer: If he sold his chometz effective before the time of bedikas chometz, it is certainly not necessary. If the sale was effective only from the standard time, then there is a machlokes and the minhag is also to be lenient. However, one should not try to get out of the mitzva of bedika and if he will not have hs own private room at his destination to do a bedika on, he should not sell one room and do bedika on it.
