About my Real Estate Practice

Experience has shown and continues to show, that the purchase and sale of a residential property is no longer a rather simple and straight forward matter.

To effectively and truly be of service to you, your consultant needs to have a substantial working knowledge and thorough familiarity with the following.

(1) The principles of contract law and knowledge of the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

(2) The various financing options available to the parties and how they impact the transaction.

(3) The significance and consequences of various matters which may impact the title to property such as easements, rights of way, cart paths and prescriptive easements.

(4) The significance and consequences of wetlands, locations of wells and orders of conditions, and how they may restrict and encumber the use of the property as well as the recent "Rivers Protection Act" and its impact.

(5) The effect and application of local zoning by-laws, set-back requirements, and building codes, and how they may impact the property and be unique to the area.

(6) The requirements of Title V, State Environmental Code, and how it may impact your property in the event an upgrade of the septic system is required.

These are just a few few examples of the issues and problems which can arise as one traverses the dangerous minefields of a residential real estate transaction.

As your attorney or consultant in the marketing, sale or purchase of a property, or as a Buyers' Broker, I can offer you the expert advice and guidance necessary for a successful and smooth transaction.

I also have considerable experience before the local Planning Board, Board of Appeals, Conservation Commission, Board of Assessors and the Board of Health which have jurisdiction and are often involved in residential real estate matters.

Perhaps, and best of all, these services are available right here in Dover Center.

If I can assist you in any of these ways, please give me call. My office is conveniently located in Dover Center, next to the Dover Market, and across the street from the Town House. I am available for weekend appointments and evening appointments for your convenience.
