[RPPTL LandTen] Residential lease form question

[harry at evict.com]

The Supreme Court only allows a nonlawyer to prepare leases for no more than
a year.

 

The owner of course can do whatever he wishes with whatever lease he wishes
to use.

 

See attached Supreme Court stuff.

Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] Residential lease form question

 

(I apologize if you received this twice.  I wasn't sure if I sent the e-mail
out correctly the first time, so I re-sent it.)

 

I have a question about the residential lease forms approved by the Florida
Supreme Court early last year for use by non-lawyers.  The forms indicate
that they are intended for leases with a term not to exceed one year.   I
have a client that may want to use one of the forms for a two year lease.
Other than the fact that the forms don't call for two witnesses, is there
any reason they shouldn't be used for a lease with a term in excess of one
year?  (Admittedly, I don't do any residential leasing and am hoping to find
an answer without having to do much research).  

 

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.  

 

Scott
