Terrific~!

Mark helped me sell a home. Wonderful attorney and very helpful throughout the entire process. Highly recommended to anyone looking to transact in real estate!

Posted by Chester | May 2, 2022

Highly recommend

Mark and his associate Diyana were totally professional, knowledgeable and helpful during the process of selling my co-op. It was a rather long process because of difficulties that came from the other side, but Mark and his team were great the whole way.

Response from Markel Kandkhorov May 2, 2022

Thank you for your words- it was a pleasure helping you get this deal to the finish line.

Hire this guy, you'll be glad you did!

My brother and I recently had to settle the estate of our older sister, which included the selling of her house in Bayside. We chose Mark for our attorney based on the many positive recommendations we found online. I am here to add one more. Mark made the whole process go smoothly: he explained what we needed to do succinctly and answered all our questions along the way; his paralegal Diyana kept in communication with me about documents I needed to provide as the administrator and progress at the buyers' end. I felt I didn't have to be nervous, because it was being handled by professionals who knew what they were doing. I recommend Mark without reservation if you need a real estate lawyer. He's professional, smart, skillful, with a friendly personality. You will feel confident that you are getting the best. 10 stars!

Attorney Most Qualified, Detailed, professional

Very professional in my opinion. Most importantly very knowledgeable, detailed oriented attorney and straight forward.

Mark Kandkhorov treated us like family.

Mark Kandkhorov and his associate treated my husband and I like family. We had lived in our home for over twenty years and when we decided to sell it, we became nervous about the process. Mr. Kandkhorov assured us every step of the way, by always calling us back when we had questions, meticulously explaining the documents, researching all essential legal matters pertaining to the property we sold and the one we bought afterwards with his professional service. Even when I wanted to rush through the process and possibly make a life long mistake, he intervened and made sure we did the smart thing. He treated us as if we were his own family even though we had never met him before we decided to sell our home. So here I am in my new beach home, feeling confident that I made the right move.

Mark and his team had performed great service!!!

Mark was recommended by my NY realtor when selling my house. It was a great experience. Mark and his assistants are extremely responsive. This was my first time selling the house. Mark patiently explained the process and prepared me when and what documents I will need to work with. When I have questions, he and his assistants will help me quickly to get them answered. Before closing, he would go over the the closing documents item by item and help me understanding what that item meant to me. Mark and his team worked closely and responsively with buyer's attorney and always kept me and my realtor posted. With their help, the transaction was closed smoothly. I strongly recommend to use the services from Mark and his team.

Prompt, Responsive and Professional

Mark turned an experience that I had with a management company that dragged on for over three months, after I retained him, he resolved it in less than three weeks. Based on my results, I would highly recommend him for real estate related matters.

Posted by Christos | September 2, 2020

Real Estate Purchase

I just purchased a house and I can tell that it was kind of a painful process, for several reasons (COVID19, Seller's attorney was not responsive, etc.). Mark was very helpful and professional throughout the process. He helped us to understand the problems, he was calm and communicative, he was there when we had questions, and he was overall very professional. He gave me legal advice on other issues as well, and he was calm when I wasn't. His services are highly recommended
