Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

The apartment/ triplex I live in is beeing foreclosed. My lease run out this month, and the landlord (rental agency) wants a new lease signed. The landlord also says they have encountered several in past year and say they are working with the owner and bank to keep every body .

My Question is do I have to sign a new lease or can I work on a month to month basis.

You can do whatever you and the landlord agree to. But if the landlord says, "Sign a lease or get out," then those are your options.

Ask your landlord if he will agree to a month to month tenancy. If not, maybe you should consider finding a new place.

You can do whatever you and the landlord agree on. Being in foreclosure does not mean that you can stay month to month without approval of the landlord.
