Michael Sacks

NCTE was organized in 2001 by Michael Sacks to fully utilize his background and experience in the real estate and business communities. Michael, an attorney admitted to practice in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, has more than 30 years of experience dealing with a wide range of real estate and title matters (including single-family properties, condominiums, and cooperative units) and commercial transactions as a practicing attorney and former co-owner of a real estate escrow company. Michael’s original assignments as an attorney in the national office of the Internal Revenue Service involved real estate: REITs, cooperatives, home owner associations, and real estate limited partnerships. While in private practice, Michael has been involved in organizations and operations for real estate developers, cooperative housing corporations, institutional lenders, and commercial borrowers. This experience has involved a wide range of real estate and commercial issues from tax assessment to securitization, business structuring, and regulatory compliance matters. Michael has also lectured on the taxation of real estate as an adjunct professor in the graduate tax program at the Georgetown University Law School.


 

Craig Sacks

Craig Sacks has been chief operating officer and president of NCTE since 2002 when he joined Michael at the newly founded company. Along with Michael’s guidance and real estate expertise, he has expanded the footprint from DC to Maryland and Virginia. Craig oversees all day-to-day business operations, business development, and client relations. He brings more than 16 years of management experience to the company and is a licensed title agent in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC. While not overseeing settlements, Craig stays in constant motion and conducts the office like an air traffic controller. He is also responsible for keeping the office plants alive and well. In his spare time, Craig wishes he was riding his 1973 Triumph motorcycle to the beach for a day of fishing, but he’s just as happy to be teaching his 5-year-old son to swim, reading a book about princesses to his 2-year-old daughter and playing ice hockey.
