Residential Real Estate Leases in Florida
Most residential leases involve apartment complexes, single family homes, multi-family units, and similar properties. If you are a landlord, you want to ensure that the property is kept in good condition and paid for in a timely manner. Additionally, you may want to limit pets, smoking, number of tenants, and other factors.
If you are a tenant, you want to ensure that you know your rights and responsibilities, understand how and when to pay your rent, and know what you need to do to get your security deposit back at the end of your time at the rental. A properly drafted lease agreement can ensure that these matters, as well as other issues, are properly addressed.
