Hartman continues to exhibit a fundamental misunderstanding of NREIG’s role in determining whether his claimed loss was in fact covered under the relevant policy.

The Prospectus also includes as Exhibits, a Declaration of Condominium, Purchase and Sale Agreement, Operating Budget, Escrow Agreement, Warranty Deed, Rules and Regulations and Frequently Asked Questions and Answers Sheet.Florida Statute 718.104 governs the creation of condos and F.S 718.616 has additional requirements for the conversion of existing occupied improvements to a condominium.

I would judge based on the number of questions / uncertainties you seem to exhibit about the situation - that you are unclear about the Landlord Tenant Laws where this property is located. 

If I were in the situation I would hopefully have used a Deposit to Hold agreement and I would keep the deposit, cut ties with the already not-understanding tenant, and search for someone who exhibits the qualities I value in a tenant (namely their Mindset).You have either a crystal clear case to do that, or a fairly clear case (depending on whether or not you used a deposit to hold agreement).
