Closing Costs in Florida

There are certain standard costs associated with closing the sale of a house in Florida. These fees are split between the buyer and the seller, as spelled out in the sales contract.

I will walk you through the closing costs, answering any questions you may have explaining which costs are decreed by law to be yours and which are negotiable.
