“I recently had the benefit of working with Michael Lemay, Owner of Wireless Investment Group, LLC, on the sale of a rooftop lease assignment. Michael and his company provided a knowledgeable and streamline approach for the sale of my rooftop lease, while providing me with purchase price that beat the competition. They delivered in a timely manner and Michael was available at every step of the process to make sure things went smoothly. Based on this experience, I recommend Michael and Wireless Investment Group.”
