Coconut Creek Title Company

Title insurance, escrow and real estate closings in Coconut Creek, backed by a licensed Florida agency serving all 67 counties.

Atlantic Title Firm provides title insurance, escrow, and closing services throughout Coconut Creek and the rest of Broward County. Buyers, sellers, FSBOs, investors, and lenders rely on us for accurate, on-time closings — backed by local Coconut Creek know-how and statewide reach. Coconut Creek is the butterfly capital of north Broward, a city assembled from condo villages like Wynmoor and Township, family subdivisions like Winston Park and Regency Lakes, and the newer MainStreet district near the Seminole casino. Its ownership base skews older, so our Coconut Creek closings are heavy on 55+ condos, estate sales and association paperwork, with the county’s buyer-pays custom on every file.

On a typical $380,000 Coconut Creek sale, the Florida-specific closing costs run about $4,662 (deed doc stamps + owner’s title + recording). In Broward County, the buyer customarily pays the owner’s title policy and usually chooses the closing agent.

Title & Closing Costs in Coconut Creek

Every Coconut Creek settlement statement carries two charges that exist only because the property is in Florida: documentary stamps on the deed ($0.70 for every $100 of the price in Broward County) and the owner's title insurance premium, which the state publishes as a promulgated rate so no title company can quote a lower or higher base premium. Applied to a $380,000 Coconut Creek sale:

Example: $380,000 sale in Coconut Creek

What Is Different About Closing in Coconut Creek

Buyer pays, buyer chooses. Broward custom puts the owner’s title premium on the buyer, who therefore usually picks the closing agent. Most Coconut Creek contracts follow that, and we are glad to be the buyer’s choice.

Wynmoor, Township and the condo villages. These communities carry age covenants, approval processes, reserve-funding assessments and, for the taller buildings, milestone inspections. We order the estoppel, confirm the buyer qualifies and pull the inspection and SIRS status.

Estate sales. Many Coconut Creek sellers are estates. We confirm the personal representative’s authority, sort out probate versus non-probate transfer, and clear homestead questions before listing.

Municipal lien letters. Coconut Creek issues a lien and permit letter that lenders expect, and open shutter and roof permits are the most common delay. We order it the day the file opens.

Who Pays for Title Insurance in Coconut Creek?

In Broward County the long-standing custom puts the owner's title policy on the buyer, and because whoever pays for the policy usually picks the closing agent, most Coconut Creek contracts name the buyer's title company. Sellers relocating from seller-pays counties are often pleasantly surprised. Nothing in Florida law requires it: the FAR/BAR contract has a checkbox for either party, and it is negotiated regularly. Whichever side you are on, we are happy to be written in.

Property Taxes & Homestead in Coconut Creek

Your Coconut Creek tax bill starts with the Broward County Property Appraiser's assessment and multiplies it by a combined rate of roughly 21.0 mills (the 2025 City of Coconut Creek total rate; unincorporated Broward County parcels use a different, usually lower, rate). The homestead exemption removes up to $50,000 of taxable value for a primary residence held on January 1 and starts the 3% Save Our Homes cap, but a purchase resets the assessment to market value the following January. Estimate from the price you are paying, not the seller's bill.

Recording Your Deed in Coconut Creek

A Coconut Creek closing is not finished until the deed and mortgage are on record with the Broward County Clerk in Fort Lauderdale (the County Records Division). Florida's fee is fixed by statute at $10 for the first page and $8.50 for each additional page; doc stamps and intangible tax are paid at the same time. We e-record on closing day and send you the recorded deed and your owner's policy.

Coconut Creek Title & Property Considerations

Winston Park, Regency Lakes and the newer subdivisions have HOAs with estoppels and transfer fees, and lake lots carry drainage easements and Cocomar Water Control District assessments. Homes near the Seminole reservation boundary sit next to sovereign tribal land with its own rules. Some addresses with Coconut Creek mail are actually Margate, Pompano Beach or unincorporated Broward, with different millage.

Deeds record with the Broward County Records Division in Fort Lauderdale. Recording is statewide, $10 for the first page and $8.50 per additional page, and we e-record on closing day.

Our Coconut Creek title search and examination are built to surface issues like these before you close — so you take title clean and your ownership is protected from day one.
