Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida
Return of Deposit for Florida Residential Lease:
The Florida statute says "landlord shall have 30 days to give the tenant written notice by certified mail" if they plan on returning less than the full deposit amount.
My question is does the letter need to be postmarked by the 30th day or does the tenant need to receive the letter by the 30th day?
