Frequently Asked Questions

If a Florida real estate contract terminates, your Transaction Coordinator handles the process to ensure compliance and a smooth resolution. I will:

• Prepare the official Release and Cancellation of Contract
• Send the form to all parties and follow up for signatures
• Distribute the executed form to the buyer, seller, agents, and title company
• Coordinate with the escrow agent for the return of the escrow deposit

This ensures the file is closed properly and escrow funds are disbursed according to agreement, minimizing delays or disputes.

• My full-service contract-to-close transaction coordination is $500 per transaction.
• If you represent both sides of the transaction, an additional $200 fee applies.
• Dont forget to ask me how you can get my services for FREE through select title company partnerships.
• 
  

This transparent flat-fee pricing allows Realtors to focus on clients while I handle all compliance, timelines, escrow coordination, and closing details.

No. If your Florida real estate transaction fails to close for any reason, you will not owe a fee. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it.

Our guarantee is simple: we only get paid when you do. This ensures Realtors and clients have peace of mind knowing they can rely on professional transaction coordination services without risk of paying for a deal that doesnt close.

What happens if escrow is forfeited? Do you still get paid?

Yes. If the buyer defaults and escrow funds are forfeited, and you (the agent or seller) retain a portion of that deposit, then my Transaction Coordinator fee will be paid from those funds.

This ensures that compensation is tied directly to the transaction outcome. If you receive funds, I get paid. If no funds are retained, no fee is due.

Yes. As your Florida Transaction Coordinator, protecting your information and that of your clients is our top priority.

• We do not share your data with anyone not directly involved in the real estate transaction.
• All files are handled under strict confidentiality guidelines.
• Unless you give us written permission, your information will remain 100% private and secure.

Yes. As a full-service Florida Transaction Coordinator, I can communicate directly with your clients if you prefer.

• This decision is completely up to you. You choose how much involvement you want.
• Many agents find it most efficient when I handle direct communication with buyers and sellers, saving them time on routine updates.
• Some agents prefer not to be copied on day-to-day correspondence, while others want to see every email.
• No matter your preference, I will always CC you on important correspondence to keep you informed.

My goal is to provide the right balance of efficiency, transparency, and professionalism to fit your working style.

You will work directly with Christine Matus, a licensed Florida professional with nearly three decades of real estate experience. I personally act as your Transaction Coordinator, managing every detail and communicating with all parties from contract to close.

Unlike larger companies that may assign you to different coordinators, I provide personal, consistent service so nothing slips through the cracks. When you work with me, you know exactly who is handling your transaction.

Communication is customized to your preferences. At the start of our work together, we’ll decide how you want updates delivered:

• Email, phone, or text—whatever works best for you
• Frequency options: daily, weekly, or as key milestones occur
• Weekly status reports with contract timelines are sent every Thursday

As your Florida Transaction Manager, my goal is to provide updates that are clear, timely, and convenient, so you’re always confident that your transaction is on track.

Real estate is a relationship business. Agents thrive on working with people, not on managing endless paperwork. The truth is, you don’t have to handle the tedious side of the business yourself. That’s where a Florida Transaction Coordinator comes in.

• We love paperwork and take pride in keeping your files compliant, organized, and on track.
• A typical transaction requires 15–20 hours of contract-to-close management. That’s valuable time you could spend prospecting, generating leads, and meeting new clients.
• By delegating the details, you’ll reduce stress, improve work-life balance, and gain more opportunities to grow your business.
• Imagine adding at least one extra contract a month simply by freeing up your time.

Hiring a first-class Transaction Coordinator isn’t just about paperwork—it’s about reclaiming your time and building your business smarter, not harder.

Yes“its possible! Through select Florida title company partnerships, my Transaction Coordinator services are provided to you at no additional cost-completely complimentary when the title company handles the closing.

This means you receive full contract-to-close support, including:

• Compliance and file management
• Escrow deposit tracking and coordination
• Communication with buyers, sellers, agents, lenders, and title
• Timeline monitoring through to closing

All of this, while paying nothing out of pocket. Its a value-added benefit designed to save you time, reduce stress, and keep your deals on track.
