Otherwise known as "signing your life away." Big commitments can feel overwhelming. But once you have a good understanding of the process and a good attorney who understands real estate in Florida, you'll feel a lot more comfortable. In fact, it's at closing—when you're ready to sign and finally acquire your own piece of real estate in Florida—that you'll appreciate your real estate attorney the most. Especially if he or she reviewed and revised the contract before you signed it. Since the contract you sign defines what happens at closing, an attorney is very limited in how much he or she can help if you simply ask him or her to "show up at closing." At that point, the game's over—all the obligations and responsibilities have already been defined and agreed to in the contract. That's why it's so important to involve your real estate attorney early on. Remember, your lawyer can make the difference between a smooth closing and one that falls apart in the eleventh hour.
When it comes to real estate in Florida, the closing process is more than just a day of signing papers, so we'll break it down into more digestible chunks. |
