These terms govern your use of halladvisoryandco.com (the “Site”) and, where they apply, the research service offered by Hall Advisory & Co. (“Hall Advisory,” “we,” “us”). By using the Site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
Who we are
Hall Advisory is a Florida research practice that prepares new-client opportunities for licensed community association management firms. We do not manage condominium or homeowners associations, we are not a licensed community association manager, and nothing on the Site is an offer to provide management services. Buying or using our research does not require a CAM license; performing management work in Florida does.
The Site is informational
Content on the Site, including examples, sample briefs, pricing ranges, and descriptions of Florida law, is for general information. It is not legal, engineering, accounting, or management advice, and it is not a complete statement of any statute or rule. You should review official sources and, where needed, consult your own advisors.
The research service
If you engage us, the specific scope, territory, fees, and any exclusivity will be confirmed in writing (including by email). Until then, material on the Site is a description, not a binding offer. Paid work is billed on a month-to-month retainer unless we agree otherwise, and you may cancel at any time.
Opportunities are compiled from publicly available records and similar public sources. Public records can be incomplete, delayed, or incorrect. We review each opportunity by hand, and we also use software tools in our process. We do not warrant that any record is accurate or that any association is, in fact, preparing to change managers.
No promise of results
We do not guarantee the number of opportunities in a given month, that any association will change managers, that any introduction will receive a response, or that you will win any contract. Estimated annual values are planning ranges based on unit counts and typical fees, not appraisals or quotes. You decide whether and how to make contact, and you are responsible for complying with email, calling, and advertising laws that apply to your outreach.
Exclusivity
Where we agree to an exclusive territory, we will not provide the same researched opportunities for that area to another management firm while your engagement is active. Exclusivity does not prevent a board from talking with other firms on its own, and it does not prevent information in the public record from being found by someone else.
Use of the work product
Sample opportunities and client briefs are for your firm’s internal business development. You may edit and send the drafted introduction in your own name. You may not resell, republish, or share our briefs with another management firm or a list broker without our written permission.
Use of the Site
You may not misuse the Site — for example, by attempting to break its security, submitting automated or deceptive form entries, or using its content in a way that infringes anyone’s rights. We may suspend access if we believe these terms have been violated.
Intellectual property
The Site’s design, text, logo, and original materials are owned by Hall Advisory or used under license. You may not copy the Site or our marks for commercial use without permission, aside from ordinary browsing and the limited use of work product described above.
Limitation of liability
The Site and our research are provided “as is.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, Hall Advisory disclaims warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, and is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or lost-profit damages, or for decisions you make based on our research. Our total liability arising out of the Site or the service is limited to the fees you paid us in the three months before the claim, or fifty dollars if you have not paid us. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those places, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted.
Indemnity
If you use our research or the Site in a way that causes a third-party claim against us (for example, outreach that violates applicable law), you agree to indemnify and hold Hall Advisory harmless from reasonable losses and expenses arising from that claim, except to the extent caused by our own misconduct.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts located in Florida will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from the Site or these terms, except that we may seek injunctive relief in any forum to protect our intellectual property.
Changes
We may revise these terms by posting an updated version on the Site. The “last updated” date will change when we do. Continued use of the Site after a revision means you accept the new terms. Material changes to a paid engagement will be communicated to active clients directly.
