• Contract Preparation and Review
• Title Insurance

Residential and Commercial Real Estate Closings

As an attorney and member of the Attorney Title Fund Services, Inc (The Fund), we will help facilitate a diligent search of the title history and previous title policy. We’ll also investigate municipal liens, permitting issues, code violations, and review a survey (if applicable) to uncover liens, encumbrances, encroachments, easements, or other potential title issues. We also gather all necessary documents and thoroughly explain all calculations that are part of your real estate closing and transaction. We want to do all we can to make your real estate transaction as smooth and easy as possible. Also, unlike closings at most title agencies, you will have the piece of mind knowing that there will be a licensed Florida attorney involved at every step.

Refinance, Second Mortgage and Equity Line Closings

Our office has the experience necessary to oversee all aspects of these junior lien transactions. From helping you gather the necessary documentation, verifying and explaining the terms of the loan, and handling the closing, we can help make this transaction as easy and stress-free as possible.

Contract Preparation and Review

Utilizing a wealth of experience in real estate transactions, we can help prepare or review any real estate contract to ensure that the potential issues are anticipated and addressed in advance.

Title Insurance

Florida title insurance is a form of insurance which can protect the lender and the owner against a loss resulting from defects in, or undisclosed liens upon, title to real estate. Lenders typically require a mortgagee title insurance policy, and buying an owner’s policy is almost always a wise decision. As members of a comprehensive title services and title insurance organization—the Attorney’s Title Fund Services, Inc. (The Fund)—we provide thorough attention to detail and outstanding personal service. Unlike most regular insurance, that insures against future events, title insurance insures against unknown issues that might have occured in the past and that have not resulted in your having “clean” or “marketable” title. And unlike regular insurance, where there ongoing premium payments, title insurance is paid at closing with one-time flat fee.
