Closing Your Loan

The closing (or settlement) is the actual transfer of ownership from the seller to the buyer. At the closing, you will sign the paperwork, pay the final closing costs and finally take ownership of your new home. Your IFC-group loan advisor will work with you and your realtor to schedule a closing date, which is indicated on your purchase agreement. Although the closing process varies by state, many activities are standard. For the closing costs, you'll need to obtain a certified or cashier's check, as the title or escrow company does not usually accept personal checks.

Destination Spotlight - Gulf Coast - Florida USA

Florida is known as the "Sunshine State", famed for its warm year-round climate, its exciting theme parks and sandy beaches.  The State has promoted itself to tourists since the mid 19th century but it was the development of Walt Disney World in the mid 1960s that confirmed Florida as a top international tourist destination.  Whilst many of the thousands that visit Florida each year get no further than the attractions and entertainments of Orlando, both the gulf and gold coasts of the State are growing in popularity amongst Europeans and are developing their tourist trade.

Florida’s Gulf Coast, bordered by the warm Pacific waters, offers a welcome respite from the brashness of Orlando.  Here you will find lively towns and quiet villages alongside long sandy beaches, small islands and expanses of hidden swampland. Some of the southern coastline is still fairly undeveloped and many visitors come simply to kick back and chill out.
