Florida title guides

Reference pages written to be sent on: to a client before a closing, to an investor before an exchange, or to an editor with a story. Each one answers first and cites the rule or statute behind what it says.

Using them

• Send the link. Nothing sits in front of any of these pages: no form, no email address, no sign-up. A client you send one to reads it and nobody calls them.
• Print it, or save it as a PDF. Each page prints clean, with its address at the foot so a paper copy can be traced back to the current one.
• Quote it. Each page ends with a citation carrying the date it was last reviewed by a licensed agent, or for the county table the date it last changed. Credit Bayit Title and link to the page.
• Tell us when it is wrong. Florida practice changes. If a figure or a form on one of these pages no longer matches what you are seeing, write to shevy@bayittitle.com and we will correct it.
