Florida laws define the responsibilities of the landlord and tenant with respect to renting and renting real estate. Verbal and written leases A lease agreement is a lease agreement for real estate. This can be written or oral. A written lease can take the form of a formal contract or simply a copy of a letter setting out the rights and obligations of the tenant and landlord. Florida law requires that most notices to and from a landlord be in writing, even if the lease is oral. In cases where there is no written lease, the duration of your rental payment plan (monthly, weekly, etc.) determines the duration of the contract. Access to the premises The landlord has the right to enter the rented apartment at reasonable times and with reasonable notice in order to view, repair or show the property to potential or actual buyers, tenants, mortgage holders, workers or contractors. The landlord does not respect the rental agreement Rent can be withheld if the landlord does not do what the law or the lease requires. However, the tenant must announce his intention by registered mail at least seven days before the start of the rental period in order to have time to rectify the problem. If the problem is not resolved within seven days and the rent is withheld, the landlord can take legal action to get it back. In these circumstances, the rent must be paid to the court registry until the judge has ruled on the case. The tenant does not respect the lease The tenant can be evicted if he does not respect the lease. Depending on the breach, the deletion process varies.
With the exception of non-payment of rent, the landlord must inform the tenant in writing of the defects and allow seven days to take corrective action. If the situation is not resolved within seven days, the landlord can start the eviction process. Eviction process The landlord must send the tenant a written notice of three days (excluding weekends and holidays) for paying rent or evicting the premises. If the rent is not paid within three days, the landlord can initiate eviction proceedings. The landlord must file a complaint with the registry of the district court where the apartment is located. The tenant then has five days (weekends and holidays) to respond in writing to the court. If there is no response from the tenant, a judgment will be rendered against the tenant. The clerk issues a “writ of possession” issued by the sheriff informing the tenant that he will be evicted within 24 hours.
