Frequently Asked Questions About Selling From Out of State
Do I need to come to Florida to sell my home?
Usually not. Patty handles the home locally, and most paperwork can be signed electronically. Your title company will confirm the closing method, which may include remote online notarization or signing with a notary where you live.
How do I know repairs are actually done?
Patty checks the work in person and sends photos and video before any vendor is paid. You approve quotes before work starts.
Can I sell a home that has tenants or vacation guests?
Yes, with planning. Leases and booked stays affect timing and showings. Patty works out a schedule with you and, if needed, your property manager.
I live outside the United States. Is anything different?
Some extra tax withholding rules can apply when a seller isn’t a U.S. resident. Talk with a CPA familiar with international sellers before you list. Patty coordinates with your CPA and the title company.
What does it cost to sell my home from out of state?
Common costs include the real estate commission, which is always negotiable, plus title and closing fees, Florida’s documentary stamp tax on the deed, and any repairs or credits you agree to. Patty will give you an estimated net sheet before you list.
