Residential Title & Escrow

Full-service closings for home buyers and sellers across Tampa Bay — title insurance, settlement, and secure escrow from contract to keys.

What We Handle

Your home closing, handled with care

Buying or selling a home is one of the largest transactions most people ever make. Our job is to make sure the title is clean, the funds are secure, and the closing happens on time — with clear communication at every step so you always know where things stand.

We work directly with your real estate agent and lender, handle the paperwork, and walk you through every document you sign at the table.

  • Secure escrow & disbursementDeposits and closing funds held in protected escrow accounts and disbursed only when every condition is met.
  • Full settlement servicesClosing statement preparation, document coordination, notarization, recording, and post-closing follow-through.
  • Seller-side supportPayoff coordination, lien resolution, and net-sheet figures so sellers close cleanly the first time.
  • For sale by owner (FSBO)Contract-to-close handling for buyers and sellers transacting without an agent.

What to expect

Once your contract is signed, send it to us — that's all it takes to open your file. We confirm the parties, order the title search, and send you an introduction with your closing timeline and a secure way to reach your closer. From there we examine the title, work with your lender on figures, and schedule your closing. Most residential files are clear to close well before the contract deadline.

Estimate your premium: Florida title insurance rates are set by the state. Use our rate calculator for an instant owner's policy estimate, then contact us for an exact, all-in quote.

Prepare for a Tampa Bay home closing

Start with the signed contract, amendments, property address, proposed closing date, buyer and seller names, and lender details. Tell us about a condo association, an estate, trust or entity ownership, or a seller who will sign remotely. Send a prior owner’s title policy if available so the closer can evaluate any applicable rate treatment.

What your quote should explain

Ask for title insurance, search and settlement charges separately, with recording, taxes and third-party items identified. The contract allocates the costs. Use our premium calculator and closing-cost guide as planning tools; the file-specific estimate is based on the actual transaction.

A local office for both sides of the bay

We coordinate closings in Clearwater, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Largo and nearby communities from 4590 Ulmerton Road, Suite 300, Clearwater. Confirm your signing appointment and any mobile or qualifying remote arrangements with the team.

Protect the last step

Before wiring money, confirm instructions by calling the office at the trusted number (813) 722-0108. Treat an unexpected change in instructions as a warning. Read our wire-safety guidance before sending closing funds.
