BMIT

There is no basis for any lawsuit.

It’s perfectly OK to discuss public transactions.
People have been doing that since the founding of America. The Net is like a townsquare.

The only hassle would be to respond to a lawsuit.

Remember the Ummel case?

If Realtors can’t be sued (successfully) for pumping up the comps, then bloggers who bad-mouth a neighborhood can’t be sued either.

If I overpaid, I would sue the appraisers who may have used comps which were fraudulent to justify prices. The Ummels actually settled with the appraiser.

Hi Rus

I absolutely understand with what you are saying. I think there is a difference though in simply stating facts without speculation verses presenting factual data in a biased manner.

You are correct that it is simply more of a golden rule approach and that does make alot of sense.

Hi A,

I am sure your policy and intentions on this topic are fine. I remember the occurrence on BMIT that you referenced. You handled it quite well.

Thinking about the sdlookup forum, that is a site designed for discussing listed properties.Like you say, without speculation and accusation it is probably fine.

Some questions and comments:

– Do realty insiders ever discuss facts without speculation?

– Didn’t Realtors tell their buyers that they think that prices would increase x%? Buy now or you never be able to buy again. This neighborhood is gentrifying. Interest rates are low, buy now, it’s a lifetime opportunity. Obama will stabilize home prices. The Fed will ignite inflation.

– What’s wrong with speculating that prices will drop? Or that gang activity in a neighborhood will increase?

– What’s wrong with speculating that a buyer can’t afford the house or that he bought or obtained shaky financing to buy it? What’s wrong with speculating about a possible foreclosure or bankruptcy soon to come? People have been doing that for age in their own forums (at home, on the town square, at the water cooler, at the country club, etc…).

Blogs are social networks. They are like private journals that the writer chooses to share with other readers.

Don’t worry, people can continue to speculate that a person is pregnant, or had an affair with the neighbor, or is about to lose the house in foreclosure without fear of lawsuits.

I remember a realtor posting that he looks in the closet to see if a spouse might have moved out. Isn’t that speculation?
