How to Buy & Sell Real Estate Without a CEU or CO...

This particular deal was very difficult, when I met the homeowner his property was in code violation. As an experienced real estate broker, builder and investor, I was able to identify his open certificate of existing use issues and work with the Town of North Hempstead to resolve them.  This goes beyond the purview of a Real Estate Agent, but since I have experience in this area, I took his listing, offering my guidance throughout the Certificate of Existing Use process; an arduous task.  My client in this case was also a Senior Citizen, so my extensive experience as a Seniors Real Estate Specialist, SRES with the National Association of Realtors provided me with the knowledge & sensitivity needed to make his transaction as stress-free as possible.  I’m particularly pleased with the success of this complex, multi-facetted transaction; the most difficult deals are always the most rewarding!
