The Law Office of Anthony Nigro, PLLC has extensive experience with residential real estate closings in Westchester and throughout lower New York States, including:

  • residential single family sales and purchases;
  • multi-unit sales and purchases;
  • co-op sales and purchases;
  • condo sales and purchases;
  • commercial sales and purchases.

The nature of real estate closings in New York is going through a period of transition where the “easy”, straightforward deal is becoming the exception rather than the rule. Title companies are becoming hyper focused on boundary line issues, making every deal a potential minefield. If encroachments are found that are over twelve inches when a survey is completed, issues arise. 

Issues with certificate of occupancies and the cities, towns and villages that issue them are becoming commonplace. For example, in the village of Dobbs Ferry where we are located, there is a requirement that every Seller have a Certificate of Continuing Occupancy before the Seller can sell their house. This involves a home inspection and if certain areas of your property were refashioned without a permit or done incorrectly, then a potential deal can go quickly awry or cost the property owner/s a large amount of unexpected expense. 

Buyers are becoming extremely savvy and particular, and for good reason: the market is currently at an all time high. When buyers are paying top dollar, especially here in Westchester County, there is an expectation of a near-perfect product. Thus, issues with certificate of occupancies, property use and each individual municipality’s quirks are further complicating what was once, at least publicly seen, as a straightforward practice area. 

Thus, at our office we do not churn out real estate closings. Every case is given individual attention and every case has it’s own potential pitfalls and needs. We give each closing the individual attention it deserves and treat it just like every other case we have. We answer emails in timely fashion and schedule telephone calls to speak about possible issues that can arise. 

Please feel free to inquire if our office would be a good fit for you. We charge a minimum flat fee with an hourly fee built in for events that are outside the usual scope of a real estate closing. All representations for any sale or purchase are subject to our office accepting the case.
