FAQ

A Roommate Agreement is a written contract between roommates that outlines their rights and obligations while living together. This agreement includes house rules, maintenance duties, restricted behaviors, and more. For a Roommate Agreement to be useful, everyone sharing the household must agree to it.

Lease agreements are considered to be legally binding once the document is signed by both parties.

To ensure a Florida lease agreement is legally valid, certain requirements must be met. These include having a written agreement, disclosing necessary information, adhering to security deposit limits, and protecting tenant rights and protections.

Once properly executed and signed, a Florida lease agreement does not require notarization as a validity requirement. While all documents recorded in public records are notarized, notarizing a commercial lease agreement will not affect its validity – neither positively nor negatively.

However, it's crucial to remember that while your roommate agreement is a binding contract between the roommates, it's not the same as a formal lease agreement. Thus, any eviction based on it must still adhere to Florida's landlord-tenant laws.

Florida law allows for a legal action know as an Ejectment to remove a non-rent paying person living in your home, who has not signed a lease and has no title or interest in the property. Often times, this involves a person whom you have allowed to live in your home and who later refuses to leave when asked.

If there is no lease in place, you are not a “landlord” under Florida law. As such, you cannot evict your roommate. The only way you can get your roommate out is by involving your landlord.
