A Floridian Landlord's Playbook for Overcoming Common Rental Hurdles

    Florida Eviction Lawyers Hey there, fellow Landlord,   Diving into the world of Florida real estate can be as thrilling as a rocket launch at Cape Canaveral.

The Florida Legislature unanimously passed a bill that would allow police to immediately remove squatters — a departure from the lengthy court cases required in most states.

"It gives me a real feeling of positive hope that we still have the ability to discuss challenges in our society and work with our legislatures in a bipartisan way," Patti Peeples, a Sunshine State property owner who was barred from her own home after squatters refused to leave, told News4Jax.

The legislation, which passed both chambers earlier this month, would allow police to remove squatters without a lease authorized by the property owner and adds criminal penalties. Landlords, under the current law, typically have to wade through a long and expensive legal process to remove squatters.

FLORIDA SQUATTER VICTIM LAUNCHING WEBSITE TO ASSIST OTHER LANDLORDS WITH ILLEGAL OCCUPANTS

"Imagine for a moment that you leave from your day of serving the citizens of Florida as a senator and you return to your home," Peeples told the state Senate Criminal Justice Committee in February. "But when you walk in, there are strangers sitting on your sofa, watching your TV, eating your food."

"You ask who they are and what they are doing, and they tell you that they have rented this house and present you with a lease," she continued.

An advocacy group, Florida Rising, initially opposed the legislation, fearing landlords could abuse the measures to quickly boot legitimate tenants. But the group took a neutral position after amendments were added to protect legal occupants, a spokesperson told News4Jax.

The bill, now headed to Gov. Ron DeSantis’ desk, would also allow wrongfully evicted tenants to sue to regain access and recover attorneys’ fees and damages.

Last year, it took weeks for the squatters in Peeples’ home to get evicted. They had produced a lease and claimed they were rental scam victims — a strategy the squatters used previously, court records show.

By the time they were ousted, Peeples’ house was left with thousands of dollars worth of damage.

"I've had so many emotions," Peeples told Fox News in April. "I've had just intense anger, I have felt defeated, I felt wronged by the legal system, I felt wronged by the police system."

The squatters never faced criminal charges.

If the Florida legislation becomes law, intentionally presenting a phony lease would be designated as a misdemeanor, and selling or leasing someone else’s property would be a felony, as would causing more than $1,000 in property damage.

Flash Shelton, a handyman-turned-squatter hunter, recently told Fox News that squatting laws needed to become stricter so landlords could more easily boot illegal occupants. He pointed to Atlanta, where, according to the National Rental Home Council, around 1,200 homes have been taken over by squatters.

"If we were to criminalize it, that would enable us to send in the National Guard to sweep that whole neighborhood and get those 1,200 houses clear," Shelton told Fox News in February.

Randy H “Junior” Tundidor, Florida inmate L75549, born 1988, incarceration intake in 2013 at age 24; scheduled for release 08/12/2047

Murder - 2nd degree, Attempted Murder - 1st Degree, Kidnaping, Burglary, Robbery, Arson

A beloved father and Nova Southeastern University professor was stabbed to death. His wife and young son escaping death from their home that had been torched.

Randy H. Tundidor, had testified against his father, Randy W. Tundidor pinning the actual stabbing on him. In exchange prosecutors took the death penalty off the table and downgraded Tundidor Junior's charge to second-degree murder.

Tundidor Junior was sentenced to 40 years in state prison. It was not the outcome the victim's family or the suspect's family expected.

Morrisey's widow, Linda had made an emotional plea in court arguing for the maximum sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole.  She said that the crime had shattered her sense of safety and that she and her son will forever live in a life in prison of the "voices of that night, the smells and noises."

For his part, Tundidor, Jr. apologized for his actions.

"If I could have stopped him, I would have," Tundidor said. "I'm truly sorry. I know it's not gonna mean anything but I'm sorry."

Earlier this year, Tundidor Jr. laid out his side of the story to a Broward County jury. He said it all started two years ago when his dad called him and asked if he knew anyone that could scare his landlord because he was being evicted and Morrissey was destroying the family. Tundidor Jr. said he would do it.

Tundidor Jr. testified that he tied up Morrissey and his wife Linda, spoke to his father by walkie-talkie, and was told to search for anything of value. He also said he had on latex gloves and had a gun but told his dad he wasn't going to shoot anybody.

When asked why they used walkie-talkies, he said it was because his dad told him "If they used a cell phone, they could be tracked." He also said he covered the Morrissey's heads with towels, "because he didn't want them to see his dad because he knew they would recognize him."

During the crime, the Morrissey's were forced at gunpoint to drive to an ATM and withdraw cash.

"It was dad's idea to get money from the ATM," said Tundidor Jr. He went on to describe the trip and said Linda withdrew the cash because her husband was driving. Linda then gave the cash to Junior.

When they arrived back at the Morrissey's Plantation home, he said he tied them up again with plastic ties and covered their heads with towels. He claimed his dad tried to find more stuff to steal. They found two laptops and he gave his dad the $500 cash from the ATM.

At this point, with the Morrissey's tied up in the bedroom, Tundidor Jr. said he wanted to leave. His dad refused and reportedly said Joseph Morrissey "has to die."

The younger Tundidor claimed that he told his dad he didn't want to be involved in that, but his dad ordered him to retrieve Mr. Morrissey from the bedroom. The son testified his father put the gun to Morrisey's head, but that it jammed. Tundidor Sr. then grabbed a knife and stabbed Morrisey twice, according to the son's testimony.

The son said Tundidor Sr. poured gas around the living room and kitchen and lit it on fire. Morrisey's wife Linda and her son both were able to escape the home.

Tundidor Sr. continues to say he is innocent of all the charges.

Tundidor Jr.'s attorney said that Randy has hope after the sentence was handed down Friday.

"He's going in with a good attitude," said defense attorney Patrick Rastatter. "He going to see light at the end of the tunnel and it's not a train coming towards him."

Tundidor Senior (Florida inmate L97205 was sentenced to death.

U.S. Rep. George Santos, the New York Republican infamous for fabricating key parts of his life story, was arrested on federal criminal charges on Wednesday ahead of an expected court appearance.

The indictment says Santos induced supporters to donate to a company under the false pretense that the money would be used to support his campaign. Instead, it says, he used it for personal expenses, including luxury designer clothes and to pay off his credit cards.

U.S. Attorney Breon Peace said the indictment “seeks to hold Santos accountable for various alleged fraudulent schemes and brazen misrepresentations.”

“Taken together, the allegations in the indictment charge Santos with relying on repeated dishonesty and deception to ascend to the halls of Congress and enrich himself,” Peace said.

Santos was expected to make an initial court appearance at a federal courthouse on Long Island later Wednesday, at which time the charges against him would be unsealed.

Reached by the AP on Tuesday, Santos said he was unaware of the charges.

Santos was elected to Congress last fall after a campaign built partly on falsehoods. He told people he was a wealthy Wall Street dealmaker with a substantial real estate portfolio who had been a star volleyball player in college, among other things. In reality, he didn’t work at the big financial firms he claimed had employed him, didn’t go to college and had struggled financially before his run for public office.

Questions about his finances also surfaced. In regulatory filings, Santos said he loaned his campaign and related political action committees more than $750,000, but it was unclear how he would have come into that kind of wealth so quickly after years in which he struggled to pay his rent and faced multiple eviction proceedings.

In a financial disclosure form, Santos had reporting making $750,000 a year plus dividends from a family company, the Devolder Organization. He later described that business as a broker for sales of luxury items like yachts and aircraft. The business was incorporated in Florida shortly after Santos stopped working as a salesman for a company accused by federal authorities of operating an illegal Ponzi scheme.

Many of Santos’ fellow New York Republicans called on him to resign after his history of fabrications was revealed. Some renewed their criticism of him as news of the criminal case spread.

“Listen, George Santos should have resigned in December. George Santos should have resigned in January. George Santos should have resigned yesterday. And perhaps he’ll resign today. But sooner or later, whether he chooses to or not, both the truth and justice will be delivered to him,” said U.S. Rep. Marc Molinaro, a Republican representing parts of upstate New York.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., was more circumspect, saying “I think in America, you’re innocent till proven guilty.”

Santos has faced criminal investigations before.

When he was 19, he was the subject of a criminal investigation in Brazil over allegations he used stolen checks to buy items at a clothing shop. Brazilian authorities said they have reopened the case.

In 2017, Santos was charged with theft in Pennsylvania after authorities said he used thousands of dollars in fraudulent checks to buy puppies from dog breeders. That case was dismissed after Santos claimed his checkbook had been stolen, and that someone else had taken the dogs.

Federal authorities have separately been looking into complaints about Santos work raising money for a group that purported to help neglected and abused pets. One New Jersey veteran accused Santos of failing to deliver $3,000 he had raised to help his pet dog get a needed surgery.

Screen tenants thoroughly to find reliable renters and maintain open communication to address any issues promptly. Regular property maintenance and timely repairs are crucial to preserving property value and ensuring tenant satisfaction. Implementing efficient financial tracking and budgeting practices will help manage expenses and optimize profitability.

Understanding the Market for Florida Investment Properties

To successfully invest in Florida investment properties, it's crucial to have a deep understanding of the local market. Research trends such as property values, rental rates, and neighborhood growth.

Analyzing local economic indicators and demographic data can help you identify high-potential areas for investment. By staying informed about market conditions, you can make strategic decisions that enhance the profitability of your Florida investment properties.

Key Factors to Consider When Buying Florida Investment Properties

When purchasing Florida investment properties, several factors should be top of mind. First, evaluate the location's potential for rental income and property appreciation. Proximity to amenities, schools, and transportation can impact demand and rental rates. Additionally, assess the condition of the property and any potential repair or renovation costs. It's also important to understand local zoning laws and property management regulations. Thorough due diligence will help you select the right Florida investment properties that align with your investment goals.

Financing Options for Florida Investment Properties

Securing financing is a critical step in acquiring Florida investment properties. Explore various options, including conventional mortgages, private lenders, and real estate investment trusts (REITs).

Understanding your financing options can help you manage cash flow and maximize returns on your Florida investment properties.

‘Corporate invasion’: hedge funds flock to Florida, buy up apartments because of weak tenant-protection laws, study finds 72% of multifamily properties like apartment complexes are owned by real estate and investment firms – Jacksonville Florida reporting

Duval County is the eviction filing capital of the state

72% of multifamily properties like apartment complexes owned by real estate and investment firms that are often based out of state.

That’s in part leading to rents rising and a high number of eviction filings. It’s also leading to an increased need for help.

James Tyer is a housing attorney at the Jacksonville Area Legal Aid office, and he said his office has been at capacity since about 2020.

▶︎ A 2023 Preemption Law Passed By The Republican Majority Legislature, Significantly Impacted Tenant Protections In Florida. The State Law Limits The Passage Of Local Policies Like Rent Control And Source-Of-Income Ordinances.

NOW THAT LOCAL ORDINANCES REGULATING TENANT-LANDLORD RELATIONS ARE PROHIBITED, THE SUNSHINE STATE IS AN IDEAL PLACE FOR LANDLORDS TO DO BUSINESS.

▶︎ When corporations run apartment complexes with the goal of turning profit and with little regulation from the state? Often, regular maintenance is ignored.

“I think what these larger companies often do, is they try to make their business more efficient. And what that means on a large scale is largely cutting costs,” Tyler said.

Most recently, the I-TEAM reported on extreme health and safety issues at Colonial Forest Apartments on the Westside, Cascade Apartments in Grand Park, and at Red Bay Apartments in Arlington.

Trial Attorney: Learn More About Wills By Hiring One

Will allow you to name beneficiaries for your assets, guardians for your children, and protect your loved ones from the state's intestacy proclamations. Trusts can also give you power over your possessions, whether alive or not.

A will specifies instructions for how to distribute your property after death. Beneficiaries, legal entities responsible for carrying out your will, guardians for your young children, and funeral and burial details are the most common inclusions. To prevent ambiguity and disagreements between your executor and beneficiaries, you should spell out your wishes in a legal will and testament.

Having to manage your possessions under state intestate law if you pass away without a will might be challenging. Additionally, your heirs may be required to pay a huge sum throughout the probate process.

Things To Remember About Wills

The drafting of a living will is permitted by the Florida legal system, which also recommends the proper format and forms for the document.

Living Wills

A living will is a formal document that a person can use to express their desires about life-prolonging medical procedures. Living wills, also known as advanced directives or health care directions, instruct family and medical staff in medical emergencies.

You can specify the types of existing treatments you do or do not want to get for yourself in a living will. A living will be drafted with the help of an experienced wills and trusts lawyer, even if it has nothing to do with the transfer of money or property. A living will is a crucial step in the estate administration procedure.

Once the living has been written, it is crucial to let close family members and medical professionals know about it so that they can use it if necessary.

The living will is ineffective until you are physically and intellectually incapable and a medical professional determines that further treatment will delay your death.

Living Wills In Florida

A living will be signed in front of two witnesses, one of whom cannot be the testator's spouse or family member, for it to be valid under the Florida legal system. The maker of the living will instruct a witness to sign it on their behalf if they cannot do so themselves.

A crucial component of your estate plan is your Florida will. Your will, a written legal instrument, outlines the distribution of your possessions after your passing. Miami Beach FL estate planning attorneys will pay close attention to your objectives and personal situation before recommending how to structure your will best.

Your will must be submitted to the Florida probate court when you pass away. The distribution of your assets is then under court supervision. Unfortunately, many people hold the false belief that if their estate is small and exempt from estate taxes, probate will not be necessary. This is a false impression. They need to know that they could wind up paying more on litigation than they do on tax savings.

Died Without A Will

The State of Florida decides who your beneficiaries are and how your assets are distributed if you pass away without a will (intestate). Your help will be divided and dispersed strictly under how closely connected your potential heirs are to you under the Florida legal system. Your real relationship to a possible successor is irrelevant to the law.

Assume you die without a Will or other estate planning document and are in a long-term relationship. For example, you had children from a previous marriage. In that case, your children will inherit everything you own, while your "partner" will receive nothing. As a result, if you are the sole owner, your children have the right to evict your spouse.
