Real Estate Transactions in Florida

While Florida law does not require parties to hire an attorney when buying or selling property, real estate transactions often involve complicated steps and oversight from multiple government agencies. For this reason, working with a knowledgeable real estate lawyer can help ensure the process is handled smoothly and in your best interest.

Making Escrow Decisions

When purchasing a home, buyers must decide whether to keep their deposit in escrow or release it directly to the builder. Florida law requires this choice to be documented in writing. The decision depends on factors such as the builder’s financial stability and the buyer’s comfort level with risk. If funds are held in escrow, the builder may pass on the cost of borrowing money, minus any interest earned while the deposit remains in the account.
