My focus

Cooperative and Condominium Developer Services

My clients include developers and sponsors of cooperatives, condominiums, homeowners associations, and all other forms of common interest communities. I prepare offering plans, amendments, exemption applications, no-action letters, and advise our clients on the submission and approval process with various New York State and New York City agencies. I also oversee unit sales and manage closings for both new construction and conversion projects, which are actively marketed to purchasers.

I also provide guidance to clients who develop affordable homeownership projects, including housing development fund corporations, rent-to-own, and subsidized housing programs, both in New York State and nationwide.

My combination of condominium development experience and general commercial real estate practice make me the ideal lawyer for representing clients in the purchase, sale, or leasing of commercial condominium properties.

Cooperative and Condominium Board Services

I also have extensive experience in representing all community association boards of existing properties. I advise boards on necessary amendments to their declarations, proprietary leases, and bylaws, and advise them on any legal issues that may come up within their communities.

Commercial Real Estate Transactions

My practice also includes commercial purchase and sale transactions, leasing, and financing matters. I draft documents for all stages of the transaction, perform due diligence, and handle closing and post-closing tasks.

Looking ahead

Rising interest rates and the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to create new challenges for investors and developers of both commercial and residential real estate. Navigating the changing landscape requires all of us to remain focused and aware of current market trends. I look forward to working with my clients on meeting these challenges head on.
