Hard working

Michael is a hard working, no nonsense attorney. He makes education a priority - he teaches continuing education classes for real estate brokers. Making his clients aware of the laws and how he is able to help their clients get to closing table ensures that everyone is comfortable when it comes to th...e biggest purchase of a persons life -is seamless.

First purchase made easy

My realtor recommended Michael, as she has worked with him in the past and had great things to say. I called Michael that day and the next morning I was sitting in his office going over paperwork. Michael was very easy to contact when I had any questions, and he always knew where we were in the pro...cess and what I was to expect next. His response time to emails and calls felt almost immediate. From start to finish Michael made purchasing my first piece of NYC real estate feel relaxed and uncomplicated. I highly recommend Michael Iakovou.

Review

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Michael Iakovou and his team to guide us during our closing process. Michael was very professional and made sure that we were taken care of throughout the process. We will definitely be using him and his firm with any future endeavors.

Exceptional service!

I would absolutely recommend this firm. Michael Iakovou and his team were very professional and always available. Mr. Iakovou was extremely professional and always kept me on the loop of what was going on. He met with me a couple of times for personal consultation to keep me at ease. He represented m...e whenever possible so that I didn’t have to take time off of work. I appreciate the honesty and availability and could not be happier with the outcome or the overall experience. I am glad I chose Michael Iakovou and Associates to represent me and would highly recommend him to family and friends.

Highly recommended!

Michael represented me on a car wash acquisition. Michael negotiated hard to get me the best terms as well as making sure there were no tax liens or other various issues. Michael was excellent and I highly recommend him!
