Kept Mom and Dad really happy

Mr. Wasserman was recommended to us by our realtor. Turns out, beyond the usual mortgage closing stuff for which he was hired, we needed help reinforcing 'Rider' conditions prior to mortgage loan closing. Mr. Wasserman immediately and totally took care of it. Also, Mr. Wasserman responded to our ...emails and calls extremely promptly. We were happy with the super smooth closing. Thank you Mr. Wasserman for all of your help, from Mom and Dad's favorite (and only) daughter:)

Highly recommended for all your real estate needs

Michael will work tirelessly on your real estate deal no matter how complex it is. His patience, diligence, and responsiveness really sets him apart. He kept me informed throughout the entire process and returned all my calls in a timely manner, answering all of my questions. He delt with all the iss...ues and negotiations effectively and managed to save me a bunch of money in the process. Highly recommended.

Professional

Mike did an excellent job handeling my real estate purchase. He contacted the sellers and was able to put together all the information I required on a quick turn around. Everything was set up and prepared so that we had a quick and uneventful closing. I will use Mike again for further legal matters.

Stress-free Home Purchase

Michael made the purchase of our first home stress-free. Whenever issues arose, he remained calm, asked all the right questions, and resolved the situation. We feel that he was a very strong advocate for us, and we appreciate that he took the time to answer all of our questions and explain every step... of the process. At the closing table, he talked over every page with us so that we knew exactly what we were signing. We would recommend his services to anyone!

Positive recommendation

I was buying my first investment property. Mike helped me navigate both a short sale transaction that fell through and an eventual condo purchase. Mike was very responsive to my many questions, always calm and knowledgeable.
