As to question 2 depending on some additional facts the answer is absolutely not.

As to publishing an opinion if it is being done out of malice or if your comments are perceived as damaging to the property and the owner they could sue you. Even if it is legal to publish an opinion and it is not being done out of malice it would not make you immune from a lawsuit on a variety of legal theories.
