Buyers may search listings, request information, and review the available SWFLORIDA4U.com properties online.  Buyers then contact sellers directly to negotiate transaction terms.

The process of purchasing a residential home differs from that of a vacant lot.   Typically, residential home or condo buyers find a home they like, and then contact the seller for details.  Upon deciding to proceed with a purchase, the buyer contacts a mortgage company, works out the transaction details, and orders appropriate inspections.   The mortgage company assists the buyer with the purchase, and often provides or arranges for any additional support services required in order for the buyer to qualify for a mortgage.  A list of mortgage companies is available in our Mortgage Resources area.

Buyers of waterfront lots and vacant land may simply negotiate a price with the seller, review the property disclosure and utility listings at the county real estate offices, and choose a local title company.  Title companies guide the buyer though the purchase process and supply all the forms and services necessary for completion of the transaction.  A list of title companies is available in our Service Directory.
