How To Evict a Tenant in Florida: A Simple Guide for Landlords

Stephen Michael White
September 7, 2018

Landlords may often find themselves getting frustrated with eviction guides, which give you only general information rather than information that is specific to your location. Unfortunately, most comprehensive guides can only go into so much detail!

This guide, however, is specifically for landlords looking to learn how to evict a tenant in Florida.

It’s not that evicting a tenant in Florida is incredibly different than eviction in any other state, but there are some unique things that you need to know.

If you don’t know the right procedure on how to evict someone in Florida, you might find yourself wasting your time, money, and mental energy on a longer-than-necessary eviction process.

One of the things they say that a landlord CANNOT do is shut of utilities. Please be careful or you could end up in trouble.
