Act II · Process
The discipline behind every file we open. From confirmed receipt to recorded deed, here’s what actually happens.
Act I · Open
Your contract arrives by submission or by phone. A coordinator is assigned within the hour, the file is logged, and a receipt is sent to every party with the case number, the assigned closer, and the projected timeline.
Act II · Search
Our examiners pull the 60-year chain from the county. Deeds, mortgages, releases, liens, judgments, tax certificates, and HOA encumbrances are reviewed line by line. Any cloud is flagged within 48–72 hours so it can be cured before closing day.
Act III · Clear
Defects are cured: payoffs ordered, releases recorded, surveys reviewed, HOA estoppels obtained. First American binds coverage. The Closing Disclosure is reviewed by buyer, seller, and lender with full time to question it.
Act IV · Close
Signing day runs in minutes, not hours. Funds clear into our trust account, the deed is recorded same-day in supported counties, and final policies issue within ten business days. Then the file goes into our vault for seven years.
The work isn’t the closing. The work is everything we do so the closing is quiet.— Senior Closing Coordinator, Naples
