Read MoreCaveat Builder: Common Interest Community Disclosures
Author: Karl A. Berg, Jr., Esq.

For instance, most builders are familiar with Read More
Read MoreA Call to Action: The Judicial Term Limits Initiative Must Be Defeated!

Read More— Now, Pray, Dear Sir, One Word About the Sheep
Author: MURRAY I. WEINER I love books. I used to read all the time. Then I had children. At home, there is at least one book in every room that in theory I am in the middle of reading. Unfortunately, I never finish any of them, even books I read to my kids. A few years ago, I fell asleep Read More
Read MoreCopyright: Hey! That’s My House
