- Q. Unlicensed contractor issue with sinking RV pad, need legal advice.
- A: You need to contact an attorney that is well versed in contract law and litigation. Sounds like a breach of contract issue but obtaining more facts will allow us to ascertain any additional counts depending on your damages.
- Q. Tenant incarcerated, how long before property is considered abandoned?
- A: Florida statutes states that if the tenant is absent from the property for half the time of the term, then it can be considered abandoned. So if the tenant pays from month to month and has been gone for 15 days, then it is considered abandoned. In this case however since you know the tenant is in jail, it may be an issue. As he cant be in two places at one time. If he has not paid while in Jail, I would do a three day notice, post it and then evict. It might prove easier.
- Q. Can I sell a commercial property with a non-paying tenant in Florida?
- A: If you never had a written agreement then you need to ask the buyer whether they want to purchase with a tenant in possession or not. If yes they will want a new lease but they can prepare it after closing. If they don’t then it’s your responsibility to make sure he is out prior to closing. Even if there is no written lease each County in Florida has mandatory requirement for notice before removing them. I would boring urge you to speak to a real estate attorney to represent you.
