Recommended Step Before Auction Launch *
Meet with a Title Company or Real Estate Attorney (1–2 Weeks Before Starting)
We strongly recommend that you meet with a licensed Florida title company or real estate attorney before your auction goes live. They can help you:
- Prepare and review required disclosures (lead-based paint, radon warning, flood statement, seller’s property disclosure)
- Run a preliminary title search (identify any liens or issues)
- Explain closing costs, timelines, and escrow process
- Confirm any HOA/condo documents are ready
This step ensures everything is in order, gives you confidence, and makes the post-auction closing faster and smoother.
Cost: Usually $300–$800 for a consult + preliminary search (paid directly to them).
How: Choose your own title company or attorney — we can provide referrals if needed (no fee to us).
Why do this first?
It protects you legally, speeds up the transaction, and shows bidders you’re a serious, prepared seller — which attracts higher-quality offers.
