We have completed a Residential Purchase Agreement. The seller, who is out of state, would like to confirm that the completed document we purchased is valid for Florida real estate transactions.

I understand the importance of ensuring the validity of your Residential Purchase Agreement for a Florida real estate transaction. Can you confirm if the document was specifically drafted to comply with Florida state laws?

I completed the form that eForms provided.

Have you consulted with a real estate attorney in Florida to review the Residential Purchase Agreement and provide guidance on its validity for your transaction in the state?

We are asking you to confirm that it is legal for Florida.

Is there anything else the Real Estate Lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured they’ll be able to help with document validity.

I don’t think there are any other questions.
