FL LandLord/Tenat Law: Revised Evictions Law - Sun-Sentinel Article

[Aron Rogerson]

Not sure if this was already posted but got it from my mother who is a real estate agent.

Seems things are in the favor of the Landlord, I remember I faced one tenant who did not know the system well but sadly the laws played into her favor with the waiting game.

In the end it was easier to wait it out than to pay a lawyer, win and then try to collect on that court win. As the lawyers say, winning is half the battle, good luck collecting.

I read somewhere....Tenant screening is where you can stop 90% of your problems. This is true beyond anything, also dont be cheap :) if another agent brings a qualified tenant, its surely worth the commission you pay.

Enjoy the article, for not FL folks, its always good to compare and contrast Tenant laws.
