How Long Does It Take to Close on a Home?

The average closing time in Florida is 30 to 45 days — but it can vary based on financing, inspections, and negotiation timelines.
With Cash
Cash purchases can close in as little as 7 to 10 days, especially if there are no repairs or title issues.
With a Loan
Expect around 30 days if you're using financing. Factors that can impact timing:
-
Loan type (FHA, VA, conventional)
-
Appraisal delays
-
Required repairs

Lender backlog
Post-Contract Process Includes:
-
Inspection
-
Title search

Appraisal
-
