The example that represents the comity clause is:

You can buy property in a state where you are not a resident.

The comity clause, found in Article IV, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution, essentially promotes the idea that states should recognize and respect the laws and judicial decisions of other states, as well as facilitate certain privileges for non-residents, such as the ability to buy property. Other options listed do not accurately reflect the principles of the comity clause.
