How about THE FACT that you can not bring a Certified or Cashiers Check to a Florida Closing. It has to be via wire transfer. If there is one number off the possibility exist's that your money will end up in only God knows where and you will not be able to retrieve it in many cases. This was my experience anyway, yours may differ. Good Luck with to the OP with your decision.

If you are not sure of what contracts your going to sign mean, then get an attorney to review and explain. The time for attorney is at the start of the process, before you sign the purchase agreement and to review documents before closing.
That being said I’ve haven’t used an attorney but I was an associate broker and felt confident to review my own contracts. I’ve been at many closings that all attorneys did was repeat what the closing agent said.
I’ve been involved in two closings in The Villages and didn’t wire transfer the funds.
