If you cause the damage of someone reputation, thereby causing them to suffer any kind of hardship, yes, you can be sued, but as long as your statements can be proven truthful, then you are not liable for the damage your statements have caused.

As a business professional, I consider myself extremely dedicated to community development locally as well as across the US.

I've been pondering this over the past few months when I was out of town on vacation.I'm curious about the possibility of setting a lifetime goal of developing a company with a 1b net worth over a lifetime.

Our founding fathers are probably rolling in their graves.The funny thing is that Gainesville is a 'Tree City' and very big on keeping development at bay.

Moreso with development, but i wanna do redevelopments and rentals first (commercial and residential like apartments).

New owner now has a lein on property and can not sell it without paying the lein off, even though the debt was not their responsibility.Original owner/developer should have had language in the contract that states that all subcontractors invoices must be paid in full and proff of which to be presented prior to receiving payment.This is one of MANY problems that can occur without the proper contracts and contingencies.

There is a fine line between helping people develop, and straight up training your competition, especially if they live in the same town.

Have been doing some investing and developing for last 5 years or so.

Develop a spreadsheet that will help you perform a takeoff on the specific elements of the project and associate costs to those tasks.

I am an investor, a realtor, and a developer.
