How long does a conventional loan take to close in Florida?
30-45 days from a clean pre-approval and accepted contract is typical for a Florida conventional purchase. Cash-out refinance, jumbo, or condo files can run longer. Appraisal turn time, condo project review, and underwriter conditions are the common timeline movers.
What this actually means.
Standard Florida conventional purchase: 30-45 days. Variables: appraisal turn time (Florida appraisers run hot/cold seasonally), insurance binder availability and pricing, title work, condo project approval (can add 1-3+ weeks), and underwriter conditions. Broker channels sometimes clear conditions faster than retail banks; timing depends on the specific lenders and the file. New construction or jumbo can push 45-60 days. Subject to lender capacity.
Where this can move.
Florida insurance premiums, property tax millage and Save Our Homes rules, county property-appraiser practice, HOA dues, CDD fees, and condo law can change the answer.
