[RPPTL LandTen] condo approval Q

Tue Apr 3 09:18:48 PDT 2012

How about the situation where the Owner buys for investment and then the association bars rentals completely.

I agree with Lainie. Looks like another example of heavy handed actions by the condo commandos.  I feel a waiver has occurred and unless extremely specific language is there to address this exact situation, it would not fly.

Something needs to be done about the illegal discrimination that is occurring every day by these associations and their "approval" processes.

I love this one: Only one rental allowed per year. Tenant moves in,  2 months later skips or gets evicted.  Owner is screwed.

Unless the kid did something that violates the rules, I don't think there is a judge in Florida that would permit an eviction under this scenario.

Interesting case.  Personally, I lien slightly toward the association on this one but I think that a coherent argument could be made that the Association waived it for the term (assuming the minor was disclosed) since they would have known of his occupancy and the term of the tenancy.  There is a perfectly coherent response to be expected from the Association but I think in the end, its largely a toss up.  I would focus my emphasis on what possible basis the association could have for denying an 18 year old?  Secondarily, I would look very closely at the precise wording of the condo documents because they are often misinterpreted by Associations.

Just sharing a thought let me know if I can help

Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] condo approval Q
Does anyone have any experience with this set of facts:

-Landlord has a one year lease with Tenant
-Tenant has a 17 year old son listed on the lease when lease is signed.
-Six months into the lease, the son turns 18.
-Condo association says they must approve all adults.
-The son, after he turns 18, fills out application for approval and is denied.
-Condo association tells Landlord that they must get rid of the now 18 year old son because he lacks their approval.

How would Landlord go about this?  I'm guessing an 83.56 (2)(b) notice could be given for having a (now) unauthorized person living there?  Do you think a judge would grant eviction in this scenario if the mother tells the Landlord to get lost?

Thanks,
Greg
