Our Process

How Your Closing Works

Open Title

Your agent or lender sends us the contract. We open the file and begin the title search immediately.

Title Search

We examine public records and resolve any title issues — liens, judgments, or defects — before your closing date.

Closing Day

We coordinate signatures, fund disbursement, and document delivery — in person or remotely via RON.

You're Done

We record your deed, deliver your title policy, and confirm everything is complete. Enjoy your new home.

Financial Strength

Backed by the Nation's Leading Underwriters

Every policy we issue is backed by one of four established national title insurance underwriters. Because Florida title rates are set by the state, the underwriter never changes your premium — only the financial strength standing behind your coverage.

Common Questions

Residential Closing FAQ

How long does a residential closing take in Florida?

Most Florida residential purchases close in 30–45 days from the executed contract; all-cash deals can close in as little as 10–14 days. The timeline depends on loan approval, the title search, HOA or condo estoppel turnaround, and inspections. We open your file and order title the same day we receive the contract to keep things on schedule.

What do I need to bring to my Florida closing?

A valid government-issued photo ID and your funds to close — sent by wire (always verify the instructions with us by phone first) or brought as a certified/cashier's check. We send a final, itemized settlement statement in advance so you know the exact amount. Protect your funds from wire fraud.

Who chooses the title company when buying a home in Florida?

Under the standard FAR/BAR contract, whoever pays for the owner's title insurance policy selects the closing agent. In most Florida counties that's the seller; in Miami-Dade, Broward, Sarasota, and Collier it's customarily the buyer. As the buyer you can request your own title company — just note it in the contract.

What are typical buyer closing costs on a Florida home?

Common buyer costs include the lender's title policy, documentary stamp tax on the note, intangible tax on the mortgage, recording fees, a settlement fee, and prepaids like property taxes and insurance. Estimate your closing costs.

Can I close on my home remotely?

Yes. We're certified for Remote Online Notarization (RON) under Florida Statute 117.265, so you can sign your closing from anywhere with a secure video connection.
