Real Estate Closing Process - What happens on Closing Day
New Homeowners Celebrating

After weeks of house hunting, mortgage approvals, and negotiating terms, you’re finally approaching closing day. But what exactly happens during a real estate closing, and how can a Florida Notary Public make the process smooth and legally sound?


At INK Notary Services, LLC we specialize in mobile notary services, loan signings, and notarization for real estate transactions, helping homebuyers, sellers, and investors finalize their deals with confidence.


Understanding Real Estate Closings in Florida

A real estate closing (or signing) is the final step where ownership of a property officially transfers from seller to buyer. Closings are usually managed by an escrow officer or closing agent, who prepares all necessary documents for notarization and signing.


Depending on your state or county, closings may occur jointly (buyers and sellers together) or separately. Regardless, the steps are largely consistent:


Typical Steps at a Florida Real Estate Closing

  1. The homebuyer provides funds via cashier’s check to cover closing costs and fees.

  2. The property title is transferred from seller to buyer.

  3. The closing agent records the deed with local authorities, establishing legal ownership.

  4. Real estate agents receive their commissions.

  5. The seller receives proceeds after mortgage balances and closing costs are settled.

Each step involves critical documents that must be signed, dated, and notarized. That’s where a trusted Florida Notary Public comes in.

Key Tips for a Smooth Signing

  • Use the ink color requested by your lender (blue or black).

  • Sign exactly as your name appears on your mortgage or loan documents.

  • Review all documents for accuracy before notarization.


Documents Typically Notarized at a Closing
