A Direct Contact for Property Matters
For Attorneys
When a client's property requires more attention than a conventional sale, Andrew Lewis provides a purchase evaluation and coordinates the property work with counsel. You can begin before every issue is resolved.
A Considered Purchase
Lewis Equity Group LLC purchases single-family homes, multi-family buildings, mixed-use buildings, and vacant land across Long Island, New York. We consider inherited properties, substantial repairs, municipal and title concerns, and financial complications.
Andrew visits before making an offer, identifies questions requiring further work, and presents proposed price, terms, and timing. Your client retains independent counsel.
