You may want to seek the advice from an attorney.Moreover, you are intentionally tarnishing the real estate business as a whole and all those who love and treasure the business as a career and opportunity to do community good.Alarmingly, you see do not anything wrong with what you are doing.What comes around goes around.I am not very forgiving.
