WjF performs site assessments often referred to as “21E’s” for clients investigating whether to buy or sell commercial property. The term “21E”, often misconstrued and referred to as a report, refers to Chapter 21E from Massachusetts General Laws, which states that a property owner is liable for cleaning up a property that has experienced a release of oil and / or hazardous material. Therefore, if you own the property, you own the problem. If you are thinking about purchasing a commercial parcel or any parcel of land that has an unknown past, let WjF help protect you from unnecessary and possibly expensive liability associated with cleaning up contaminated property.
