Chelsea L. Metka, Esq.
Fifteen minutes, no obligation. Bring us your contract, your lease, your loan, or your question.
Navigating the residential market requires more than a real estate agent. It requires a legal partner who understands the fine print of Florida real estate law. Chelsea L. Metka is board certified in Real Estate Law by The Florida Bar and has spent more than a decade exclusively on transactional real estate, so the person reviewing your contract is the person who can advise you on it.
Whether you are a first time homebuyer or a seasoned investor, buying or selling a home is likely the largest financial decision you will make this year.
One of the most common misunderstandings we see is about timing. Sellers are often surprised that they do not receive their money the moment they sign. Buyers expect the keys immediately. Understanding how the process actually works removes most of the stress from it.
Every residential file here is handled to a high standard, from the first contract review through funding and recording, with a board certified attorney personally reviewing the title work rather than passing it to a processor.
We provide a full suite of legal services designed to cover every aspect of residential property ownership:
Contract review, title examination, and disbursement authority held on your behalf so your funds are not released until the closing documents have been approved.
Attorney led management of the sale, including payoff and estoppel coordination so your proceeds are correct at the table.
Attorney led title and escrow, with title insurance issued as agent for Old Republic, Stewart, and First American.
Drafting and review of purchase agreements, addenda, and disclosures so the terms work in your favor before you sign.
In Florida, your choice of representation matters. While many firms offer title services, our office is led by an attorney who is board certified in Real Estate Law by The Florida Bar, a distinction reflecting deep subject matter expertise that most traditional title companies cannot provide.
We handle every part of your transaction in-house, from the title search to resolving a boundary issue if one surfaces. A title company can tell you a defect exists. An attorney can tell you what to do about it.
