Relationships that keep closings on calendar
New York real estate deals rarely fall apart over the big things. They stall over the small ones — a description that doesn't match the survey, an unreleased mortgage from decades ago, an entity document no one asked for until the day before. My job at Home Abstract Corp is to be the person on the title side who flags those issues early, keeps every party informed, and helps the closing happen when it's supposed to.
Who I work with
Brokers & agents
Early title orders, clear status updates, and a direct line when something in the search needs attention.
Lenders & mortgage teams
Commitments, updates, and closing coordination built around funding timelines.
Investors & developers
Title diligence for acquisitions, multifamily portfolios, and Opportunity Zone projects across New York.
