Florida Landlord - Disaster area/Hurricane/Tenant Displacement Process

[Grantham Parramore]

BP Forum:

I am a remote, out-of-state landlord with two rental properties in the Tampa area.  In light of the pending Hurricane, I am anticipating significant damage to at least 1 of the units - likely rendering it uninhabitable for a period of time.  I have two separate but related questions:  (1) What are my obligations to my tenants while the house is uninhabitable? (2) Does anyone have any best practices or tips on dealing with rental properties and tenants that have been impacted by a natural disaster?

Many thanks!
