Can an HOA Stop You from Renting Your Property?

You own the property, but does that mean you can rent it to anyone you want?

Not necessarily! Florida HOAs and condo associations may have rules restricting rentals, requiring tenant approvals, or setting minimum lease terms.

Before renting your property, know your rightsand your association's rules.

In Florida, landlords cannot lock tenants out simply because they're behind on rent.

Changing locks, shutting off utilities, or removing belongings without following proper legal procedures can result in costly penalties, damages, and attorney's fees.

Even when rent goes unpaid, landlords must follow the law.

Landlords: Sued Over a Security Deposit? Think Before You Respond.

Even if a tenant damaged the property or owes rent, that doesn’t automatically mean a landlord is entitled to keep the security deposit.

In Florida, timing, proper notice, and documentation matter. How you respond to a security deposit lawsuit can significantly affect the case.

Do Prior Owners Receive Notice to Vacate After Foreclosure?

After a foreclosure sale, the successful bidder does not necessarily get immediate possession of the property,especially if someone is still living there.

In Florida, the process can depend on who is occupying the property.

If the occupant is the prior owner, the new owner may be able to seek a Writ of Possession through the court rather than following the notice requirements that may apply to tenants.

But correctly identifying the occupant is important. If the person living there is actually a tenant or another individual, different procedures and protections may apply.

The key takeaway: Obtaining title after a foreclosure sale and obtaining possession are two separate steps and the proper procedure depends on who remains in the property.

Should Your Tenant Ever Pay Your Mortgage Directly?

It might sound convenient: instead of paying you rent, your tenant sends the payment directly to your mortgage company.

But for Florida landlords, that arrangement can create serious problems.

A missed or late payment could put your mortgage at risk. And if a dispute develops, a tenant may even claim an interest in the property, potentially making the legal process to remove them more complicated.

The safer approach? Keep rent and mortgage payments separate.

You Bought a Foreclosed Property… But Someone Is Still Living There. Now What?

Winning an association foreclosure sale doesn't necessarily mean you'll immediately have possession of the property.

If occupants remain, the next step depends on who they are and whether they qualify as bona fide tenants. Different notice requirements and legal procedures may apply before they can be removed.

Following the wrong process could mean unnecessary delays in taking possession of your new property.
