Florida Lease Basics

Florida residential leases are governed by Chapter 83 of the Florida Statutes. The state generally favors landlords but requires specific disclosures — and missing them can void enforcement of certain provisions.

Required Florida Lease Disclosures

Security Deposit Rules

Florida landlords must return security deposits within 15 days of move-out (no claim) or send written notice of claim within 30 days. Failure to comply forfeits the right to keep any portion of the deposit.

FAQ

Is a Florida lease required to be in writing?

Leases over 1 year must be in writing under Florida's Statute of Frauds. Leases under 1 year can be oral but written leases are strongly recommended for both parties.

How much can a Florida landlord charge for security deposit?

Florida has no statutory cap. Landlords typically charge 1-2 months' rent. The full amount must be returned (or claim issued) within statutory deadlines.

Can a Florida landlord enter without notice?

Only in emergencies. Otherwise, 12 hours reasonable notice is required for repairs and inspections (Fla. Stat. §83.53).
