The process of evicting a tenant in Florida can be completed in as quickly as 2-3 weeks for uncontested evictions for nonpayment of rent. If the eviction is contested by the tenant or if it’s for a reason other than nonpayment of rent, the process can take longer ( read more ).
If the tenant did not contest the eviction, the landlord may move forward with filing a motion to obtain a Judgment for Possession. If the tenant did contest the eviction, the tenant may be required to pay the court the amount of any outstanding rent.
Depending on their availability, it can take several days for a judge to rule on the eviction (and subsequently issue the Writ of Possession). Once a Writ of Possession is issued, it falls into the hands of the county sheriff’s office to serve the tenant with, which can take another 2 days or so.
Once rent is considered late, the landlord is allowed to provide a written 3-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit before proceeding further. This notice allows the tenant the ability to pay the unpaid amount in full within 3 business days (not including weekends or legal holidays) of when the notice is received.
If a tenant commits the same violation within a 12-month period, the landlord does not have to offer the tenant the opportunity to remedy the situation a second time. The second type of violation is for more severe offenses and does not allow the tenant the opportunity to remedy the cause of concern.
Month-to-month – if rent is paid on a month-to-month basis (most common), a landlord must provide the tenant with a 15-Day Notice to Quit.
Regardless if the eviction was contested or not, if the judge rules in favor of the landlord, a Writ of Possession will be subsequently issued and the process will proceed. ~5 days.
