Under Florida law, both buyers and sellers have the option to end a residential real estate contract and withdraw from the transaction without incurring any penalties by invoking the process of rescission.
As described by The Washington Post, buyers tend to be the ones to hire a title and escrow companies in some parts of the U.S. The practice often falls upon the seller in Florida, with exceptions usually in Broward and Miami-Dade.
The choice of an escrow agent or holder is a negotiable item between a prospective buyer and a seller, like any other contract term or condition.
Backing out of escrow If a buyer chooses not to close at this late stage, they're more likely to face consequences. If the buyer has no contingencies left to void the contract, and decides not to sign, the buyer is likely in default of the contract,” says Rodgers.
Keeping the Escrow Funds: A third-party will oversee the escrow account until the closing date. This is done in ance with Florida Statutes § 651.033, which state that a certified financial institution must hold the escrow funds for the duration of the transaction. There's a clear logic behind this law.
The cancellation provisions are found in Paragraphs 14C (1) and (2), and in Paragraph 14E of the CA-RPA. Regardless of the reason, the seller must give some type of notice to the buyer, however (either a Notice to Perform or a Demand to Close Escrow) before the seller can cancel.
When the buyer and seller are unable to resolve a dispute that prevents the closing of escrow, the escrow officer may file a lawsuit to force the resolution of the dispute. The lawsuit is filed in the appropriate court and a judge will determine the outcome of the dispute.
When the buyer and the seller cannot come to an agreement on the release of funds, an escrow officer may file an interpleader action with the court. An interpleader action is a legal procedure where a neutral third party, such as an escrow officer, deposits the disputed funds with the court.
