At the Closing

Q.) What's a closing?

A.) In Florida the closing is conducted by a title company who transfers title from seller to buyer. You will have anopportunity to discuss all aspects of the closing in detail before the event.

Q.) What do I need to bring?

A.) Here's what you'll need:

1. A picture I.D for each purchaser.

2. Receipt for the first year's premium of a Home Owner's Insurance policy.

3. Additional documentation the lender may require, such as proof of sale of an existing residence, deposit verifications, proof of sale of a car, copies of tax returns.

4. Certified funds for money due at closing, in accordance with Florida's law and the law firm's policy. The title company will advise the amount.

Your title agent will receive the loan package from the Lender in time to provide you with figures prior to closing. The figures are on a Settlement Statement (HUD-1). In the event your figures change before the actual closing, the title agent will probably accept a personal check for the difference at the closing table.
