Story

I am a senior counsel with the J&G Real Estate Team. My primary practice is devoted to condominium/HOA, banking, and real estate. I prepare Martin Act offering plans for a variety of both residential and commercial condominiums and HOAs, both new construction and conversions of existing buildings, for filing with the New York State Attorney General's Office. I also prepare plans that combine multiple condominiums with a master HOA. I review all of the title reports for all Hometown Bank of the Hudson Valley (formerly Walden Federal Savings & Loan Association) residential loan closings and advises Hometown Bankl regarding the potential legal issues disclosed therein. My real estate experience varies from representing purchasers and sellers of raw land and single family homes to a commercial transaction with a value over $200 million. Representation includes drafting and negotiating lease and purchase and sale contracts, reviewing title reports, surveys, and due diligence inspection reports, clearing title objections and advising clients regarding potential legal issues disclosed by various due diligence inspections and the title report. I have also drafted and negotiated conservation easements with local municipalities and with Scenic Hudson.
