Business Owner Leo Kryss is actually suing realty company Douglas Elliman over the $79 thousand sale of his Florida manor, a 7-bedroom, 11.5-bathroom home situated in what his suit phones "the absolute most distinguished and exclusive place in Miami, Indian Creek Village." In his suit, Kryss claims he inquired Douglas Elliman CEO Jay Parker point-blank if Amazon.com owner Jeff Bezos lagged the investment. Parker presumably "misleadingly guaranteed Kryss that Bezos was not responsible for the offer as well as was not the purchaser," depending on to the case, submitted in July in the circuit judge of the 11th Judicial Circuit in Miami-Dade Region..

" However, for these misstatements as well as in dependence upon [Parker's] roles to deal in all honesty, fairly, and with due treatment towards T.A.M., Kryss would not have reduced the purchase price or even marketed the home for $79,000,000," the lawsuit insurance claims.
