Closing Guide

Florida contract-to-closing essentials

Learn what to track from an executed contract through settlement. Every date must come from the signed agreement and applicable addenda.

Seven practical stages

1. Executed contract

Record effective date, party contacts, contract form, required deposits, escrow holder and closing date.

2. Inspections

Schedule property inspections and record the actual contractual inspection deadline and notices.

3. Financing and appraisal

Confirm financing application, lender conditions, appraisal if required, and any financing deadlines.

4. Title and survey

Follow up on title commitment, liens, judgments, survey and required title objections or cure items.

5. Insurance and association

Track homeowner and flood coverage, condominium or HOA application and approvals when applicable.

6. Before closing

Confirm settlement figures, applicable Closing Disclosure delivery, final walkthrough and funds instructions.

7. Closing and records

Record signing, funding and disbursement; retain records under brokerage policy and applicable law.

What may delay closing

Lender conditions

Outstanding underwriting documents, appraisal concerns or financing conditions.

Title or liens

Unresolved encumbrances, permit matters or missing documentation.

HOA or condo

Association approvals, estoppel information and required documents.

Scheduling

Inspections, insurance, signatures, funding and holidays can affect completion.

Key reminders

Florida AS IS is not one universal calendar

Deadlines depend on the particular executed contract, addenda and changes; never assume standard durations.

Written changes matter

Track amendments and extensions only after they are properly agreed and signed.

Client communication

Share only appropriate information; use secure delivery for sensitive documents.
