Florida rules built into this template

  • Deposit return: within 15 days after the tenant vacates if no deductions are claimed; if the landlord intends to impose a claim, the landlord shall give the tenant written notice by certified mail within 30 days after the tenant vacates (Fla. Stat. § 83.49(3)).
  • Rent changes: Florida has no rent control, and state law preempts local regulation of residential tenancies, including notice requirements (Fla. Stat. §§ 83.425, 125.0103). For a month-to-month tenancy, notice must be given at least 30 days before the end of a monthly rental period (Fla. Stat. § 83.57).

Frequently asked questions

Does a landlord have to renew a lease in Florida?
Generally no. In Florida, a landlord may decline to renew a lease at the end of its term for any lawful, non-discriminatory, non-retaliatory reason, after giving any notice the lease and state law require.
Is a lease renewal a new lease?
A renewal extends the existing lease for a new term, usually with the same terms except those the parties change, such as the rent. The Standard renewal keeps all original lease terms in effect unless it states a change.
What is the difference between the Standard and Professional Lease Renewal Agreement?
The Standard edition is a complete, state-aware Lease Renewal Agreement for common situations. The Professional edition adds longer clause coverage, schedules, and optional modules for more complex matters. You can preview either edition free before you pay.
