The closing table is where two decades of title judgment earn their keep.
Dana Patti closes real estate and bank title across Manhattan, Queens, and Long Island — trusted by some of New York's largest private lenders and developers on transactions most closers never see.
Scope of practice
Most closers handle the routine. Dana's table includes the transactions that require real title judgment — the ones where structure, sequencing, and lien priority decide whether the deal records clean.
Private lenders & developers
- Air rights transfers and zoning-lot mergers
- Building loan closings under the Lien Law
- Construction loans, advances & modifications
- Intricate commercial subdivisions
- Blanket mortgages across multi-parcel portfolios
- Complex commercial acquisitions & refinances
Bank title closings
- Bank attorney and lender-side closings
- Residential purchase & refinance
- Co-ops, condos, single & multi-family
- Mixed-use and investment property
- Clear-to-close coordination with counsel
- Every property type, every borough handled
Twenty years at the table for New York's largest private lenders and developers — and the banks across from them.
A skill set beyond the traditional closer
Air rights, Lien Law building loans, and multi-parcel structures aren't learned from a checklist. Dana brings the judgment that only two decades of complicated files can produce.
Trusted on both sides of the table
Having closed extensively for private lenders, developers, and banks alike, Dana understands what every party needs to fund, record, and walk away clean.
Independent by design
No agency overhead, no divided attention. When you book Dana, the person with the experience is the person at your closing.
Your in-house closing expert, before closing day
On a large project, the most expensive title problems are the ones discovered at the table — a defective legal description, a building loan agreement that won't survive Lien Law scrutiny, a missing consent that stalls funding with everyone in the room.
Dana is available for engagement by large developers as a dedicated in-house resource: an experienced closer's review of your project documents before they ever reach a closing. Every document is read the way it will be read at the table — by someone who has funded, recorded, and cleared these files for over twenty years.
