The practical answer
Identify the written agreement supporting the credit and ask the builder and closing professional to reconcile it. Avoid relying on a promise to fix accounting later.
Your next step
Raise the discrepancy before releasing funds or completing the transaction.
How this fits your SWFL home search
Closing combines property readiness, financing, insurance, title, documents, funds, and possession. Organized review and independently verified payment instructions help buyers avoid last-minute confusion.
Use the closing professional and qualified attorney for document and title questions, and never rely solely on emailed wiring instructions.
Turn the answer into a decision
- Identify the exact home, homesite, and stage of the purchase. Bring the current written information into your comparison.
- Raise the discrepancy before releasing funds or completing the transaction.
- Record the response, the person responsible, and any deadline. If an answer changes the purchase cost, schedule, or scope, ask where that change is documented.
- Keep unresolved items visible when comparing alternatives. Ask the appropriate qualified professional to assess questions outside a consultant’s scope.
