EHA has been involved in negotiating and drafting real estate contracts and leases, investigating titles, and closing transactions on “Hamptons” and “North Fork” properties for almost five decades.  Unique issues can arise in any real estate transaction on Eastern Long Island, where properties can be affected by a site-specific regulatory and title issues.  Our attorneys represent sellers, purchasers, lenders, developers, landlords and tenants in connection with various types of residential and commercial real estate transactions, including contracts of sale, construction contracts, option agreements, rights of first refusal, mortgages, leases, easements, development rights sales, and tax-deferred exchanges.  We also act as “local counsel” when New York City and other out-of-town attorneys need assistance dealing with the unique title and zoning issues affecting East End properties. If transactions become contentious, our litigation attorneys are available to protect our clients’ claims.
