Description
This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation.

In this episode you will learn:
- The critical difference between assignment, which keeps the original party liable, and novation, which releases them.
- Key remedies for breach of contract, including liquidated damages (often the buyer's deposit) and specific performance to force a sale.
- How rescission voids a contract and returns parties to their original state, unlike simple cancellation.
- The Florida-specific statute of limitations: five years for written contracts and four years for oral contracts.
- That liquidated damages, when specified in a contract, often serve as the seller's sole monetary remedy against a defaulting buyer.
