Late payment Lease vs State Statue

Patrick Bavaro
  • Fort Lauderdale, FL
Posted

Hi All, 

First time landlord about 6 months in to a year long lease. Question for the group. The lease that was signed with my tenant specifies 5 days until rent is considered late, and State (FL) law provides a 3 day window. I'm assuming lease supersedes state before being able to file for eviction since it's more than the state time period, correct? This is just a "what-if" scenario for the future! 

Thanks!
