The judge has already mandated a date to return possession regardless of who the owner is.

Instead of the 3-day Quit, use the Change in Terms notice.Highlight the points:you have no written lease you have been living here under an oral agreement on a month-to-month basisEffective 1/1/2017, the terms of your tenancy will be changed as follows:Rent of $xxx will be due on the 1st of the month and considered late after 5 days,Your lease is attached for your signature and the term will be From ___ To ____If you elect to not sign the lease on or before 1/1/2017, I will file an Unlawful Detainer action against you in court to obtain possession and that will be public record against you.If you elect to move out on 1/1/2017, I will return your deposit of $xxx

Contract clauses were really a big help - principal only mortgage - that is NO INTEREST, installment down payments, money back, right of possession, many subject to offers, delayed settlement with possession - contract candy ( also known as buyer incentives) prime rate financing - money back from seller - discounting existing current and defaulted mortgages, early pay-off discounts, substitution of collateral (my favorite one)When there is NO equity - I offer --- Contract of sale (on a skinny), subject to existing financing, immediate possession, right to assign and release of liability -- This system works well when house lacks equity.

Should the inspection concludes that the property possesses fundamental flaws which renders the property Inhabitable and /or the repair costs of those flaws would equal or accede the sale price of the property, the Purchaser then reserves the right to remove himself and all his obligations of this contract and the seller agrees to refund the earnest money to the Purchaser in full."

Once you possess this license, affiliating with a licensed broker and notifying your state agency of such affiliation will make you an active licensee (commonly referred to as "agent").Only active licensees can subscribe to the MLS.

One more thing...it costs money to get an account to collections. typically you MUST obtain a Money Judgment, which is a separate action from obtaining a Writ for Possession in many (most?)

You would have "landlord" insurance on the property, then you would also have tenants insurance on the possessions in your unit.There is a good chance this could be handled differently in Florida.

I've always balanced between the role as an employee and independent contractor - both of which have left me unsatisfied with how I come to possess money.

Next question, @Duncan Taylor: would adverse possession only apply to the previous owner and his time there?

We've finally gotten possession of our first rental home after closing in March with an agreement for the owner to stay until May 30.
