Breach of Contract Lawsuits for Landlords in Central Florida

As a landlord in the bustling Central Florida region, especially in the heart of Orlando, you’ve invested time, money, and effort into providing quality housing for your tenants. When tenants violate the lease or rental agreement, it’s not just a slight inconvenience—it’s a breach of contract. Your rights, as a landlord, need safeguarding, and our specialized team is here to ensure you are protected.

Understanding Breach of Contract for Landlords

A breach of contract in the landlord-tenant relationship arises when one party does not fulfill their obligations as outlined in the lease or rental agreement. For landlords, the most common breaches by tenants include:

• Non-payment of rent: Beyond being a common form of breach, consistent non-payment of rent can severely strain a landlord’s financial health. Rent is not just income; it’s used to maintain the property, pay mortgages, handle property taxes, and other essential expenses. While one might empathize with occasional delays, regular delinquency can jeopardize a landlord’s ability to maintain the property or even lead to foreclosure in extreme cases.
• Unauthorized alterations: A tenant might feel the need to make the rental space “their own” by making alterations. However, without proper approval, these changes can significantly devalue the property. For instance, painting walls with non-neutral colors or installing fixtures might not align with the aesthetic desired by the landlord. Beyond aesthetics, some changes might breach safety codes or create hazards, leading to potential liabilities for the landlord.
• Overstaying a lease: A lease agreement is time-bound. When tenants refuse to vacate by the end of the lease term, it’s not just an inconvenience. Landlords might have commitments to new tenants, scheduled renovations, or plans to utilize the property differently. Overstaying can lead to revenue loss, scheduling nightmares, and potential legal fees if eviction becomes necessary.
• Violation of property rules: Lease agreements often contain clauses about property rules to ensure a harmonious living environment for all. Breaches like keeping prohibited pets, creating consistent disturbances, or engaging in prohibited activities can degrade the living conditions for others. Such violations can also put the landlord at risk of lawsuits from other tenants or even jeopardize the landlord’s standing with property management associations or local authorities.
