Greenacres Title Company
A licensed Florida title agency closing real estate in Greenacres, Palm Beach County and statewide — with the local knowledge Greenacres files demand.
Atlantic Title Firm provides title insurance, escrow, and closing services throughout Greenacres and the rest of Palm Beach County. Buyers, sellers, FSBOs, investors, and lenders rely on us for accurate, on-time closings — backed by local Greenacres know-how and statewide reach. Greenacres is one of the most attainable cities in Palm Beach County, a 1920s town west of Lake Worth Beach that grew into a patchwork of 1970s condo villages, family subdivisions like River Bridge and Nautica Isles, and the townhome communities along Jog Road and Lake Worth Road. First-time buyers, investors and retirees meet here. Our Greenacres closings mix resales, condos, estates and flips, with a heavy dose of association paperwork.
On a typical $340,000 Greenacres sale, the Florida-specific closing costs run about $4,182 (deed doc stamps + owner’s title + recording). In Palm Beach County, the seller customarily pays the owner’s title policy and usually chooses the closing agent.
Title & Closing Costs in Greenacres
Sellers and buyers in Greenacres ask the same first question: what does the state take? The answer is the deed doc stamps at $0.70 per $100 of the sale price and the promulgated owner's title premium, a rate fixed by Florida regulation rather than by the title company. On a $340,000 Greenacres sale the two look like this:

What Is Different About Closing in Greenacres
Condo villages and reserve rules. The 1970s and 1980s condo communities along Jog and Lake Worth Roads carry approval processes, reserve-funding assessments and, where three stories or taller, milestone inspections. We order the estoppel, pull the inspection status and read minutes for pending assessments.
HOA subdivisions. River Bridge, Nautica Isles and the newer townhome communities carry estoppels, transfer fees and approval steps. We order them at file opening and put the fees on the statement early.
Investor and first-time-buyer volume. The original grid sees steady flips. We check the municipal lien letter, code-enforcement liens and unpermitted work, especially enclosed patios and converted garages.
Estate sales. An older ownership base in the condo villages means many sellers are estates. We confirm the personal representative’s authority and use non-probate transfers where the deed allows.
Who Pays for Title Insurance in Greenacres?
Greenacres follows the seller-pays convention used across Palm Beach County: the seller covers the owner's title insurance premium and, in exchange, selects the title and closing agent. Treat it as a starting point rather than a rule. The contract can put the premium on the buyer, split it, or leave the seller paying while the buyer chooses the closer. We work all of those arrangements every week.

Property Taxes & Homestead in Greenacres
Property taxes in Greenacres are set by the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser's assessment and a stack of millage rates that together come to roughly 19.1 mills (the 2025 City of Greenacres total rate; unincorporated Palm Beach County parcels use a different, usually lower, rate). Buy a homestead and you get up to $50,000 in exemptions plus the Save Our Homes 3% cap going forward, but the cap the seller enjoyed does not transfer: the assessment returns to market value the January after closing. Our estimator models both.

Recording is the last step that makes a Greenacres sale official. The deed, the mortgage and any affidavits are filed with the Palm Beach County Clerk in West Palm Beach at Florida's statutory rate of $10 for the first page and $8.50 per additional page. Atlantic Title Firm prepares the package, pays the doc stamps and intangible tax, records electronically on closing day and delivers your recorded deed and title policy.

Greenacres Title & Property Considerations
Greenacres’ 1920s plats carry vacated streets and old drainage easements, and the older grid has unreleased mortgages from defunct lenders. Lake Worth Drainage District assessments and canal easements appear on many surveys. Some addresses with Greenacres mail are actually unincorporated Palm Beach County, Lake Worth Beach or Palm Springs, with different millage.
Deeds record with the Palm Beach County Clerk in West Palm Beach. Recording is statewide, $10 for the first page and $8.50 per additional page, and we e-record on closing day.

Who pays for title insurance in Palm Beach County?

Does an older Greenacres condo need a milestone inspection?
If the building is three stories or taller and past the statutory age, yes. Smaller buildings still fall under the reserve rules. We pull the status with the estoppel.
Can I sell an inherited Greenacres condo without probate?
Sometimes, depending on how title was held and whether a trust or Lady Bird deed was used. We review the deed and tell you which path applies.
