SKU: 18850
Availability: InStock

A Florida 7 Day Notice to Pay or Quit is used to notify a tenant of their noncompliance and demand they cure the problem or vacate the premises within 7 days. This notice does not allow for partial remedies, so the landlord has the option to terminate the tenancy and file a forcible entry and unlawful detainer action if the noncompliance is not fully resolved.

What Does Florida Law Say?

§ 83.56(2)(a) If such noncompliance is of a nature that the tenant should not be given an opportunity to cure it or if the noncompliance constitutes a subsequent or continuing noncompliance within 12 months of a written warning by the landlord of a similar violation, deliver a written notice to the tenant specifying the noncompliance and the landlord’s intent to terminate the rental agreement by reason thereof. Examples of noncompliance which are of a nature that the tenant should not be given an opportunity to cure include, but are not limited to, destruction, damage, or misuse of the landlord’s or other tenants’ property by intentional act or a subsequent or continued unreasonable disturbance. In such event, the landlord may terminate the rental agreement, and the tenant shall have 7 days from the date that the notice is delivered to vacate the premises.
