Frequently asked questions
Are title insurance prices the same at every Florida title company?
The premium is set by the state, so yes. Settlement fees, search fees and service vary, and that's what you should compare.
Do I need an attorney to close in Florida?
No. Florida closings are commonly handled by licensed title agents. An attorney is helpful for complex deals, probate, or title defects.
