Author: reikopena | Posted: 21.03.2012

The relationship between a tenant and a landlord deteriorates on several occasions like failure to pay the rent, or violating the terms and conditions of the lease agreement, or using the rental property for unlawful purposes. Though the reasons for providing a 3 day eviction notice florida are many, but what matters from the tenant point of view is to know if there are any chances to fight back and gain success. This notice serves as a warning sign to the tenant thereby conveying him the message that the landlord might get him out of his rented property if conditions and requirements of the notice are not met instantly.

Often, landlord provides a three-day eviction notice when the tenant fails to pay his rent. This notice states the outstanding amount payable to the landlord and also include instructions how to do so. But this notice leaves no alternative for the tenant other than paying the balance rent or else vacating the property. Situations may also arise where a tenant fails to comply with the lease terms and conditions. In these cases the tenant is allowed three days time to sort things out or else vacate the rented property if he cannot comply with the demands.

This notice expires at midnight of the third day. A tenant who has been handed a three-day eviction notice by his landlord in Florida can only fight back if it is served before the rent is delinquent. This will render the notice as invalid and will not have any effect on eviction. Hence these notices are served only if the rent has crossed its due date. Furthermore, if the due date happens to be a holiday then it will not be counted.

Sometimes genuine tenants fall prey to these notices.. Guidance can also be obtained from Tenants’ Rights Associations for specific and truthful concerns.
