Florida law at a glance
- Florida charges documentary stamp tax on deeds, generally $0.70 per $100 of consideration, with a different rate and a surtax in Miami-Dade County (sections 201.02 and 201.031, Florida Statutes).
- Deadlines in a real estate contract are usually strict. Missing an inspection or financing deadline can cost a buyer the deposit.
- Title insurance and a current survey help identify liens, easements, and boundary issues before closing.
General information about Florida law, not legal advice about your situation. Deadlines and requirements depend on the facts and the documents involved.
