Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

What is the proper way to give myself the right to terminate a tenant's lease, and must I give him the same right?

My tenant is living in my former primary residence. The home I currently live in may be foreclosed upon within a year, and I'll want to move back to my former primary residence. I am preparing his renewal lease & don't want to alarm him, but don't want to have to move everything twice if I get evicted from here.

Can I use this paragraph somehow? Can I lease the home to myself and have that encumbrance take priority?

11. Subordination of Lease Agreement. The interest conveyed hereunder by Management to Resident is subordinate and inferior to any liens or encumbrances now existing or hereinafter placed on the demised premises by Management.

Thank you.

Do you have any idea of what you stated in 11. If you are concerned that you will have to move then just state in your lease a 30 day notice for cause.
