If you have a question for me about any aspect of the home-buying process (i.e., house hunting, mortgages, negotiations, buyer agency, purchase and sale, etc.), please don't hesitate to send me an email. I'm happy to try to answer your question.
Professional Background:
I am a lawyer and real estate broker. I am also the co-founder and co-owner, with David S. Kres, Esq., of Buyers Brokers Only, LLC in Haverhill, MA.
I have been admitted to practice law in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts since 1995 and the State of New Hampshire since 1997. I am a partner in the law firm of Rosa & Kres, LLP.
In addition, I am also a licensed Massachusetts real estate broker.
Professional Passion:
I get fired up about helping potential home buyers. I believe the real estate industry is bias in favor of sellers, and there are not a lot of laws to protect home buyers. Exclusive buyer brokers level the playing field. Being a real estate broker and a lawyer, I like to think I give buyers the home field advantage.
Although real estate transactions appear to be routine transactions, there are many potential costly pitfalls awaiting unsuspecting home buyers. Always remember: It's not what you don't know, it's what you don't know you don't know. Think about it!
I also publish MassForeclosed.com and Pregio.com
Educational Background:
I graduated cum laude from Northeastern University's School of Journalism in 1991, and I earned my Juris Doctor from New England School of Law in 1995.
Professional Associations:
I am a member of the Massachusetts and New Hampshire Bar Associations. I am also a member of the National, Massachusetts and Greater Newburyport Association of REALTORS®. In addition, I am a member of the Massachusetts Association of Buyer Agents. Buyers Brokers Only, LLC is a member of the Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce.
Personal Information:
I was born and raised in Bridgeport, CT, and I moved to East Boston, MA with two friends a couple of months after high school.
I lived in East Boston for 11 years, spending most of that time attending college and law school in Boston.
I presently reside in Haverhill, MA with my wife, Anne Marie, and twin boys.
