What gets me is the possession they normally use in contrcts in Florida! The normal is 'possession upon closing. Now, when you have back to back closings - how is that possible? You go to the closing with all your stuff in the truck? and of course you found time to clean the place up after moving out, so the buyer can move right in? I think I like the ole 30 day possession that is the standard here in Indiana.

I guess they do it because so many of the sales are new houses or people with second homes. The buyer makes an inspection before closing and knows exactly what he is getting. But when you are selling your house at 10 am & using the proceeds to buy the next one at 11am - that really is pushing things for everyone.
