Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
My boyfriend is moving out of his apartment after 5 years. When he notice to vacate, it was outside the 60 day notice. They say he owes $900.00, but the apartment is already rented to another tenant, once he leaves. I think this is a double dip by the apartment complex and not legal!
Please advise what to do!

The lease agreement, if written, controls. Have the lease reviewed by an attorney. If he had a required notice period and did not honor it does the agreement provide for a penalty? Normally the re-rental is not relevant to whether the penalty is due.
