Expert Title & Escrow Services in Key West

Deep Dive: Navigating Key West's Real Estate Landscape

Key West-Specific Title Expertise

Each community in Florida has its unique character and real estate challenges. Here’s a closer look at what makes Key West special and how we navigate its specific title and escrow needs.

Key West Neighborhood Insights

The historic charm of Old Town Key West, with its conch-style houses along Duval Street and near Mallory Square, requires careful attention to detail during title searches. In contrast, the newer developments on Stock Island often involve navigating complex condominium agreements and homeowners' association regulations. Location Title & Escrow LLC has years of experience dealing with both types of properties.

Common Challenges in Key West

In Key West, a frequent challenge arises from unpermitted additions to historic homes, often discovered during title searches. Given the island's vulnerability, encroachments on mangrove wetlands and other protected areas also present unique title issues. We work closely with surveyors and environmental experts to resolve these matters promptly and efficiently for our clients.

Key West Regulations and Landmarks

Property owners in Key West should be aware of the Monroe County Land Development Regulations, especially regarding building height restrictions and setbacks from the shoreline. Compliance with these regulations is essential for obtaining building permits and ensuring a smooth closing. Location Title & Escrow can help you navigate these complex requirements.

How We’ve Helped Key West Clients

We successfully cleared a title for a newly renovated property on Simonton Street by working with the City of Key West to resolve a decades-old lien resulting from a forgotten municipal assessment, enabling our client to sell the property quickly and at their desired price.
