Renting Made Simple

JOE MINOTTO works with both Landlords and Tenants.

We play a vital role in facilitating rental transactions, acting as intermediaries between landlords and tenants to ensure a smooth and successful process. From marketing rental properties to screening tenants and negotiating lease agreements, real estate agents perform a wide range of duties to meet the needs of both parties involved.

Florida Landlord-Tenant Law Changes Effective July 1, 2025

Flood Disclosure:
Landlords are now required to provide a flood disclosure to prospective tenants at or before the execution of a lease for a residential property for one year or longer.
Electronic Notices:
A new statute allows for electronic delivery of notices, such as the 3-day notice to vacate, provided both the landlord and tenant agree to this method through a lease addendum.
Credit Reporting for Rent Payments:
There is a trend toward reporting rent payments to credit agencies, a change intended to help tenants build their credit history.

We use Rentspree to verify Tenants for Landlords.

Realtor Fees

Realtors can charge fees for their services. In some situations, the landlord pays for an agent to help them find a tenant. On the other hand, if the renter hires an agent, they may be responsible for paying the fee.

These fees can equal one month's rent or a percentage of the annual rent, it’s wise to ask the Realtor how they calculate their fee and who is responsible for paying it. Doing so helps avoid misunderstandings and ensures a mutually beneficial working relationship.

Pro tip: While you can negotiate the commission fee, it’s helpful to research the average commission rates in your area so you know what you’re getting into.
