yes, you should share the notice to your tenants. There's no privacy concerns. As the owner of the unit, you are the one whose life the HOA can make most miserable, and financially difficult. It makes no sense to not cooperate with the HOA.

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... View More

You have to have the landlord consult with a lawyer to figure it out. You cannot provide legal advice to the landlord and you should not be making legal decisions for the landlord.

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.... View More

Sounds like you owe the rent April 1 - April 5, at a minimum. If you elected to wait, your lease remained in effect. Apparently upon closer inspection, it was determined that you could not wait - the damage was too severe, and the lease terminated then. Perhaps that's 2 weeks between April 5... View More

Yes. Your rent is due when its due. The grace period applies to the imposition of late fees. Most landlords are not going to whack you on an eviction for being late once and you pay within the grace period, if you've otherwise been a good tenant.

You would be considered a month to month tenant and subject to eviction if you do not leave once you are given proper notice. While an eviction might take a few weeks, you could be considered a holdover tenant and subjected to double rent. The judge would impose market value rent.

Unlawful detainer and eviction are 2 similar but completely different causes of action. In an eviction, you are required to be given notice. There is no notice in an unlawful eviction action. A small claims action on your part is absolutely incorrect. I urge you to seek an attorney's help... View More

I'm sorry to tell you this but you are a month-to-month tenant if you have no lease. You need to consult with a landlord/tenant lawyer right away to review the eviction notices are valid. This is not a problem you can resolve with internet advice and time is of the essence. If you were... View More

There is no such thing as a relocation fund for you. When the house is sold, the new owner will be entitled to a writ of possession (no eviction notice needed); the sheriff will serve it and you will be escorted off the property (and not be allowed to return unless you strike a deal with the new...

Since you are married, it would be better to file a divorce case so that you have the court to back you up.

Unfortunately, Florida law does not permit "self-help" evictions. Therefore, you cannot simply remove your spouse's belongings and "evict" him. Furthermore, since you are married, there may be some marital component to the property. Therefore, it is best you schedule a... View More

Even if the property is solely in your name, if it's considered the "marital residence," your husband may have certain rights to it during the divorce process. Florida courts aim for equitable distribution of marital assets. Simply because he has not contributed financially does not... View More

Yes, you can sue the apartment complex/landlord. The non-working security cameras are a huge red flag and will likely impart liability on the landlord.
