<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">While I am not proud of the outcome, we worked on this law for 2 years. It was vetoed once by Crist who made us take out a concession payback. Based on the legislative history, back and forth and all the rest,
it is my feeling that the 60 days’ notice is meaningless and confusing.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I tell my clients that if they vacate with 1 day notice or give 60, they only will owe a max of 2 month’s rent.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The law needs to be fixed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">You could argue as well that if they don’t give the 60, it jumps down to #2<o:p></o:p></span></p>

or 20<sup>th</sup> of the month, the tenant owes for the month he move plus 2 additional months. I don’t think the tenant is required to stay two months and in addition must pay two months.

<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all. I ask for some guidance on the following issue.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Residential tenant has liquidated damages addendum for early termination equal to two months’ rent. Paragraph 3 of the lease,” Lease Term and Termination Notice Requirements” states that the lease will automatically renew on a month to
month basis unless tenant provides 60 days’ notice of termination or intent to move out. In the early termination addendum, it states that landlord is entitled to all rent that accrued through the end of the month in which it retakes possession.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Landlord tells tenant he must give 60 days’ notice and pay the 2 month early termination fee. I don’t think that is correct—the purpose of the early termination fees is just that, when a tenant decides to terminate the lease prior to the
end of the term. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Your opinions on whether the tenant must give 60 days AND pay 2 months’ rent is invited and greatly appreciated. Thank you. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regards, <o:p></o:p></p>
