A home inspector plays a crucial role in the home-buying process by providing a detailed evaluation of a property’s condition, helping buyers make informed decisions and avoid costly surprises down the line. From structural integrity to electrical, plumbing, roofing, and more, a thorough inspection ensures you know exactly what you’re investing in. There are several different inspections you can have 1. Comprehensive home inspection  2. Four-point inspection, which does include the major four points of a home, which are HVAC, electrical, plumbing, roof   3. Wind mitigation this one can help save you money on your homeowners insurance as it is one that is done to demonstrate a home‘s ability to withstand strong winds which could potentially lead to insurance discounts. This is done by assessing the roof type, attachment, methods, and any opening protection. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with several trusted and experienced home inspectors, each with their own strengths and specialties. I’m happy to connect you with one who best fits your specific needs and ensures peace of mind throughout your purchase. 

A title company plays a vital role in a real estate transaction by ensuring that the title to the property is legitimate and free of any issues that could affect ownership. They conduct a thorough title search to uncover any liens, encumbrances, or legal problems tied to the property. Once the title is deemed clear, the title company issues title insurance, protecting the buyer (and lender, if applicable) from future claims against the property. Additionally, they often handle the closing process, ensuring all documents are properly executed, funds are securely transferred, and the transaction is legally recorded. Their work helps ensure a smooth and secure transfer of ownership. Whoever choses to pay title is the party that gets to pick the Title Company!  What does that mean....In most counties in Florida, the seller traditionally pays for the owner’s title insurance and chooses the title company. but this is negotiated in the contract. However, in a few counties like Collier County and Miami-Dade, it’s more common for the buyer to pay and select the title company.

When someone “pays title” in Florida, they are typically covering:

    •    The owner’s title insurance premium (a one-time fee based on the purchase price),

    •    The settlement/closing fee charged by the title company on their side,

    •    And possibly additional administrative fees (e.g., title search, courier, document prep).

These costs ensure a clean and insured transfer of property ownership.

A few of the trusted title companies I have worked with include Integrity Star Title, with offices from Punta Gorda through Naples, and Fidelity National Title of Fort Myers, among others. Each of these companies has helped ensure smooth, professional closings for my clients.
