Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Is my lease agreement legit?
Is it legally necessary to have witnesses sign a contract or agreement? Our lease was not signed by a witness and I was wondering if it is void beacause of this.

A lease requires two witnesses for the landlord, but none for the tenant. Even if not witnessed, if the parties have acted as if the lease were valid, it may be at least partially enforced on account of estoppel.
