I met Matt a few years back in another closing where he represented the bank. It became instantly apparent that he was the sharpest person in the room. I made a note that in my next real estate transaction I would have him handle it for us. Matt was tremendously helpful in both our sale and purcha...se of our homes. He gave us regular updates and always took the time to explain everything to us. We had some unexpected issues with the purchaser of our home. Matt was always there to calm our fears and further rectify the situation. He always explained the law to us and advised us of all our options. For the purchase of our home, Matt helped negotiate our terms so that we were well protected in the event our sale didn't go through. Luckily this did not happen, but it was nice to know that our risk was minimal. We were extremely pleased and forever grateful for all of Matt's help and legal expertise.

The house we were selling was on Long Island, but the two owners lived in different cities hundreds of miles away from each other and from the property. Matt handled this geographical complication with ease. He did what was necessary to verify the title, and he succeeded in getting the closing to h...appen at a convenient date without the sellers having to attend. He really did a fine job. The only aspect of this that was less than stellar was that he did not communicate by email as often as he said he would. That caused a bit of frustration along the way, but the ultimate result was that a complicated transaction done well and on time. If we had to do it again, we would still hire Matt because of his skills, but we'd just pester him more often when communication lagged.
