Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Notice of lease break
I gave my landlord 45 days notice of termination. The lease did not specify any days required. Is there a standard term set by the state of Florida or was my notice sufficent. Also, is the landlord responsible for setting the term for the lease break in the contract? Thank you for your help.

Re: Notice of lease break
Unless you were a month to month tenant you cannot validly break a lease by serving a notice. You will still be responsible for the rent. The landlord is under an obligation to try to rerent the premises as soon as reasonably possible. Good luck.

Notice of termination and its effect are governed by the terms of the lease.
