Environmental Issues

Environmental problems may significantely affect a property's value. Whether caused by a tenant or neighboring property, enviromental issues could severely impact your property.

For example, two properties recently closed could have cost even our sophisticated sellers nearly $500,000 because they were unaware of:

  • Petroleum Releases and UST Issues
  • PCB's
  • Dry Cleaners and PERC
  • Asbestos
