where can i get a good lease?

Question

I feel like there's got to be an inexpensive comprehensive lease out there somewhere.  I would think there would be enough similiarties between similair properties that a general 3 bedroom condo would have a typical lease.

That being said, I also want to protect my assett and hold my tenant 100% to his or her obligatons, so if a lawyer is absolutely necessary I can hire one.

I found this website which shows landlord tenant forms approved by the supreme court of florida.  It also states that there is no statement saying these forms comport with current state laws.  A lease is the first 2 forms.

Does anyone have an opinion on how this lease would hold up?

@Chris M. leases are pretty much state to state, so check around and see if there is a standard form that you should use. That would make it easiest.

@Chris M. - Work with a qualified realtor. Here in VA we use standard Common Law Lease as well as VRLTA (Virginia Residential Landlord Tenant Act) for people with more than 4 properties. I am sure FL has similar options. Alternatively, you can also work with a Real Estate Lawyer to make a custom lease for your property.  Third option is using websites like RocketLawyer.com to get a very general Lease Agreement. Option 3 is the cheapest one, but it may turn out to be expensive in long run should you have to go to court over some dispute. If you go with Option # 3 at least have a qualified lawyer review it for you.  Good luck
