[RPPTL LandTen] Retaliation

[Anthony J. Horky]

All: I had a residential tenant call me today whose lease term will expire
at the end of the month.  He does not have a good relationship with a
property manager who was recently hired because of common area maintenance
complaints he made to the owner.  He wants to be present for the walk
through inspection as he fears retaliation that will result in damage to the
apartment and/or an unfounded claim on his security deposit.  However, the
manager refuses to allow him to be present for the final walk through. 

 

Does a residential tenant have a right to be present for a post term walk
through inspection in Broward County, Florida?  I vaguely recall an
administrative/municipal rule on this but cannot locate it or recall the
jurisdiction.  Any thoughts?

 

Thank you.
