If you have a good credit history, securing a mortgage can be easy.

@Angela BrigidoFor Florida leases, from what I know, you have include a specific clause about radon gas and lead paint, the state rules about entry to the property, and the security deposit statute.

You should also make sure the security deposit is/was transferred to you.

The documents used are also different but are built upon the same or similar legal basis for any secured loan.

Troy, If he is an existing tenant, you should have received a copy of his lease and any move-in list of damages along with the transfer of his security deposit.

The place is an absolutely mess he has guranteed me he will paint and fix it (haha I doubt it) So unforunately if I show it anyone will hate it.3.If I do go to court I will ask for 1 month rent plus above and beyond for repairs(outside of the scope of the security) is there anyway to garnish wages or make this debt appear on his credit report?

I always check my children's candy for anything from China and throw it in the garbage.

And that if they're not they ones who rented it, they need to get the guy out and secure your property.

A lot of guys will throw out perfectly good cabinets.

To get 1300 you have to throw a lot more house at it.
