Weston Title Company

A licensed Florida title agency closing real estate in Weston, Broward County and statewide — with the local knowledge Weston files demand.

Atlantic Title Firm provides title insurance, escrow, and closing services throughout Weston and the rest of Broward County. Buyers, sellers, FSBOs, investors, and lenders rely on us for accurate, on-time closings — backed by local Weston know-how and statewide reach. Weston is the master-planned city at the western edge of Broward, built by Arvida in the 1980s and 1990s as a set of gated villages around lakes and golf courses, from Weston Hills and the Isles to Savanna and Bonaventure, and home to one of the largest Latin American and international buyer bases in Florida. Our Weston closings are almost all resale homes in associations, with international, relocation and entity buyers and the county’s buyer-pays custom shaping every file.

On a typical $750,000 Weston sale, the Florida-specific closing costs run about $9,102 (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 Weston

Sellers and buyers in Weston 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 $750,000 Weston sale the two look like this:

Example: $750,000 sale in Weston

Deed doc stamps (rate $0.70/$100)$5,250
Owner's title insurance (promulgated)$3,825
Recording (statutory)~$27

These are illustrative — your actual costs depend on price, financing, prorations, and who pays what under the contract. Run your own numbers with the Weston closing cost calculator, or use the statewide tools below:

What Is Different About Closing in Weston

Buyer pays, buyer chooses. Broward custom puts the owner’s title premium on the buyer, and the buyer therefore usually selects the closing agent. Most Weston contracts are written that way, and buyers moving from seller-pays counties should expect to pick their title company.

Master and village associations. Nearly every Weston home sits under a master association plus a village association, each with its own estoppel, approval process and transfer fee. We order both at file opening and start the approval the same day.

International and entity buyers. Weston draws buyers from Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil and beyond, often through LLCs or trusts. We handle FIRPTA on foreign sales, SB 264 affidavits where they apply, entity documentation and wire verification on every high-value file.

Relocation timelines. Corporate moves to the Sawgrass and Weston office parks come with start dates. We run those files with early commitments and mail-away or remote online notarization signings.

Who Pays for Title Insurance in Weston?

Weston follows the Broward County custom, which runs the other way from most of Florida: the buyer ordinarily pays the owner's title insurance premium, and by Florida tradition the party footing that cost chooses the title and closing agent. So on a typical Weston transaction the buyer makes the call. It is a local custom, not a legal requirement, and it is always open to negotiation — if you're buying, we'd be glad to be your choice.

Property Taxes & Homestead in Weston

Property taxes in Weston are set by the Broward County Property Appraiser's assessment and a stack of millage rates that together come to roughly 16.3 mills (the 2025 City of Weston total rate; unincorporated Broward 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 Your Deed in Weston

Recording is the last step that makes a Weston sale official. The deed, the mortgage and any affidavits are filed with the Broward County Clerk in Fort Lauderdale (the County Records Division) 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.

Weston Title & Property Considerations

Weston was built on drained Everglades land inside the Indian Trace and South Broward Drainage District boundaries, so district assessments and drainage easements appear on most surveys. Bonaventure has older condo and townhome buildings under milestone rules. Some addresses with Weston mail are actually Southwest Ranches, Davie or Sunrise, 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 Weston 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.
