A national guide cannot tell you this
Documentary stamps, Homestead and Save Our Homes, Florida’s insurance market, the 2025 condominium rules, FIRPTA for foreign sellers — every one of them changes what a Miami transaction costs and how it is structured. These guides are written by Erika Schell, Luxury Certified REALTOR® at The Keyes Company and Forbes Global Properties, from the questions her clients actually ask.
