As a new member on the Section Council, I am pleased to be taking the reins from Ron Deutsch as the editor of Ground Rules. So far this year, the economic climate has been rather stormy, especially in the real estate field; and it remains to be seen whether the coming months will bring more April showers than May flowers. In this spring edition, we feature articles on the General Assembly's new tax on the transfer of controlling interests in real property entities, a recent foreclosure case from the Court of Appeals, mold issues facing owners of real property, as well as others. We hope you enjoy this edition and if you have a topic of interest, please feel free to submit an article for the next edition.
