Landlord notice law question
I recently posted a few questions and received a lot of great help and feedback but it left me with one last question I was hoping someone could help me with.
In Florida I am confident I can give my tenant a notice to move out in 15 days since we are on a month to month lease at this point.
I am however unsure of the following:
-Can this be given to him on a weekend, aka today Saturday and therefore the 15th day being Dec 31st
-If I gave it to him tomorrow and the 15th day rolled into January, would he in fact have until the end of January to move out then (going off of a response I received from another member on a different post)
-Anything else I need to be aware of before giving him this notice today, which I would like to do if he doesn't get me rent (which is 12 days late, per usual)
Also, while I am at it does anyone have an opinion on reasonable late fees for late rent. The previous owner of my property wrote the lease we are using and it states, $200 for posting a notice of failure to pay rent, and also a late fee of $5 every day rent is late, with no apparent cap listed.
Thanks for any help!
