2 friends make a deal 2 sell mobile-home 4 15K & now buyer wants a break on the remaining 7K owed because he is spending too muc

I've heard it said that any lawyer who hires himself to be an atty. has a fool for a client; apparently this works both ways for the client too. Lesson learned? Always hire somebody that does for a living the job you need done. Thank you Mr. Klurfeld, your answer 2 my Ques. was exactly what my gut wa...s telling me, “Hire an attorney. Never let the buyer move in before payment in full.” Most of all don’t mix friendship and business. If exploiting a situation is in your nature, it seems, then that side will always take over. My friend wanted a good deal(and got it) yet he wants to remodel ASAP, at my expense. 2BR’s+2Bath, Gd Sized Rooms, Plenty Wnds,CtrlAir, Scrnd-inPorch &Coat of FreshPaint. He said as there was no “AS IS” in the contract, therefore since his ‘fixer-up jobs’ were adding up to $$$ he should be allow to deduct them from the total still owed while I wait 2 mnths 4 my next payment! Never saw that one coming but a 10 year friendshp ain’t enough to really know a guy, I guess. Why is it that we never think things like this happen to regular people? My desire was to help out a buddy and of course the cash deal was also attractive. I was shocked, felt taken advantage of, then angry; now I need a lawyer. I appreciate it, Jonathan that you are a professional and I would recommend to anyone to use your services. The fact that you speak your mind is just the frank assessment I needed to hear. More than likely, you’ve seen your share of bad decisions in real estate law and I seem to have blundered right into one of the top five. Thanks for your help for right now and in the future.

Wow! An honest and not greedy lawyer.

Mr Klurfeld answered my questions about a realty contract in great details being very generous of his time and knowledge. It is refreshing not to get the usual answer: "get a lawyer". If you are in the Boca Raton area in Florida and have real estate transactions to do (he is also in the real estate b...usiness) I highly recommend you retain his services. I know I would!

Great Experience!

Mr. Klurfeld did an excellent job defending my foreclosure case for many years and ultimately saving my house getting my loan modified. I greatly appreciate his efforts and the very reasonable price he charged me throughout the case; never exceeding what I thought was more than fair to have to pa...y for the amount of time

Results!

Mr. Klurfeld defended my foreclosure, taking it over from another lawyer who did a terrible job and missed deadlines, etc. He was able to get me a permanent loan modification with Ocwen. I highly recommend his services.

Gets Results!

Great experience with this firm. I received a trial loan modification from my lender through them. When i was not sure whether to take the loan modification or do a short sale on my house, Mr. Klurfeld took personal time to go over a complete strategy for me. He had a realtor out at my house w...ithin a day or 2 to give me an estimate of what the house was worth and what I could sell it for. I was provided a full write-up of the comparables, the methods used, etc. Very informative. Ultimately I decided to take the modification, but this firm goes above and beyond. Highly Recommend!
