Expert Real Estate Closings for Buyers and Sellers

With decades of real estate law experience, Michael Klasfeld provides expert support for both buyers and sellers, ensuring a smooth, legally sound closing process. For sellers, he manages everything from contract drafting to title review, protecting interests and preventing future claims. For buyers, he conducts thorough title examinations and handles lender requirements, safeguarding against potential risks.

Michael’s meticulous approach and clear communication keep clients informed every step of the way, making complex transactions straightforward and stress-free. His commitment to thoroughness and transparency ensures a seamless closing experience for every client.

Please come to us before you enter into any contract. As a buyer or seller, you are often going to be told that there are standards, fees, clauses, who does what, and who pays for it. There are. But few of them are requirements. All is subject to negotiation until you sign the contract. If you come to us after you sign the contract, we can certainly help, but you may be locked into matters you may not be happy with.”
