One spouse refusing to sell does not end the question, because a divorce court in Florida can order a sale as part of equitable distribution when agreement fails, though no spouse can simply sell alone in the meantime. For a household weighing this question around a long held family ranch on a corner parcel on the postwar grid, the local record gives the question real weight, because builders acquired 25 of 36 older homes in the neighborhood sample, a builder demand rate of 69.4 percent (National Association of Realtors, 2025).

  • A direct closing on the documented pattern runs 7 to 21 days once paperwork is ready, against 60 to 120 days of market time for a listed older home (Zonda, 2025).

What should be written down before the house is marketed?
