· Real Estate
Purchase and Sale Contract: It is the blueprint for the entire
transaction. Real estate agents and attorneys are licensed to
provide these. He or she will make sure all the provisions are
to your benefit, and will add or delete some if they’re not.
Remember once the contract is signed, you’re legally bound to
the terms. The contract spells out the terms and conditions of
the purchase from the purchase price all the way down to who pays
the utilities until you take possession of the house. Don’t think
any pre-printed Florida real estate contract is written in stone;
rather it’s where the buyer and the seller begin negotiating.
It’s where your Florida real estate agent or attorney will be
invaluable to you, offering advice that can save you hundreds,
even thousands of dollars down the road. As a closing agent we
review the contract and close according to the terms agreed upon.
·
Our closers will review your contract with you to insure that
we have a full understanding of your transaction. All Florida
contracts require the issuance of an Owner’s Title Insurance for
the buyers and Mortgagee Title Insurance policies for the new
lender.
· Refinancing:
When you refinance an existing mortgage “it costs you money
or equity.” People refinance for many reasons. Whatever the reason,
the new lender will require a Mortgagee Title Policy to
be written on the new loan. You are eligible for reissue discount
on the cost of the new policy. If you provide the title insurance
company selected to do your refinance with a copy of your “owner’s
title policy”, you will receive a discount on the cost of the
new loan policy. You have the right to select the title insurance
company to close the new loan for you. If you do not tell
your new lender who to use, they will select a title insurance
company for you.
