Excellent for my real estate transaction

I retained Mr. Markowitz concerning the sale of my house. Prior to the sale, Mr. Markowitz's paralegal reviewed possible issues. For example, we had an oil tank that needed to be closed. We had an extension that we needed to legalize. Mr. Markowitz explained that these are issues that will arise ...in a sale. He told us that it is better address these issues prior to contract. Mr. Markowitz was correct. We legally abandoned the oil tank and legalized the extension. As a result, there were no issues with the sale and we deeded the house and received the money without a problem.
